I think Tremaine Edmunds is going to get cut soon.

Whether we cut him or trade him, whether before or after June 1st, the result is the same. We will open up $15M in Salary Cap space.

Of course I'd rather get something for him, even a 7th rounder, but if a team trades for him, they'll be on the hook for the $15M this year, and I don't see anyone paying him that much.

It's possible if two (or more) teams want him AND can restructure him in a longer term deal to something more appropriate, then maybe we could get some value in trade, but I think it's much more likely that teams will just wait for us to cut him.

There's no real benefit in waiting, and we will want that cap space when the league year starts in a few weeks, so I think it's predictable that he'll be cut soon. I don't claim any inside info reports from media sources or anything like that, but all those facts just kinda line up to an outcome?

That's the logical conclusion for opening up some Cap space. Some pundits have suggested because he is young they may just re-sign him to lower his Cap cost this year. He was having his best year under DA, still young and DA may want to keep him. 

I think we should resign Demarco Jackson and try to trade him. 15 mil cost for a vet above average LB is not out of line.

I'll be greatly surprised if anyone wants him.  The only reason he was getting any attention is because of the early season interceptions.  They literally fell into his lap.  If anyone wants to know why our run defense sucked, look at him as a prime suspect.

Totally agree.

I mean, he'll sign SOMEWHERE for a LOT less, but I don't imagine anyone is gonna trade for him, or pay him much either.
