Film Review of Tremaine Edmunds

Actually kind of refreshing to see such an optimistically critical film analysis of Tremaine.

My thoughts:

1) I hate YouTube click bait titles in any capacity, but...
2) I like and agree with the first comment: "He's A Linebacker that could cover Rob Gronkowski with no safety help. That's Incredibly Rare."

"What kind of person would throw away a perfectly good dog?"

Best line of the video, "I'm sure every coach watching this film is saying,Tremaine Edmunds doesn't even no what the f*ck he is doing yet, and he is still the best guy on his defense!'

Haha, I was actually comment that same thing. Definitely funny, but also true. This guy seems very very high on Tre.

Pretty fair evaluation, he is only 19 years old so he will still grow physically and has a lot that he can learn mentally. If he gets the proper coaching he could have a long successful NFL career, if not, he won't be able to get by on just being a freak athlete. So there is to a degree boom or bust potential.

Another year? But maybe Bud doesn't coach him up. I don't like any of the teams listed as possibles and lord not the Raiders and Bengals!

Even when you get skunked; fishing never lets you down. 🎣

You mean definitely da Raiders so I have a legit excuse to get a new jersey. I was in Vegas this week for work and stopped the Stadium preview center, so fucking pumped for 2020!

I can imagine no more rewarding a career. And any man who may be asked in this century what he did to make his life worthwhile, I think can respond with a good deal of pride and satisfaction:
“I served in the United States Navy"

could you imagine that pass rush with him and mack though? probably the most athletic linebacker duo in the nfl

Taylor, looking desperately throws it deep..HAS A MAN OPEN DANNY COALE WITH A CATCH ALL THE WAY DOWN TO THE FIVE!!!!....hes still open

As a Broncos fan, having the Raiders move to Las Vegas is my second most favoritest thing the Raiders have ever done. (Drafting Jamarcus Russel being #1. If my speculation about how awesome Broncos weekend in LV every fall is correct, Fatmarcus could quickly slip to #2). Have had serious conversations with other Broncos fans about getting season tickets in Las Vegas. Even if we don't I think it's going to be cheaper for me to go to Broncos Raiders in Las Vegas then it would to go in Denver.

The move to Vegas is making me have a strange soft spot for the Silver and Black. It's unnerving.

Old sigline: I've been cutting back on the drinking.

New Sigline: lol it's football season.

I think the flow would've been better, say:

1. TE is a freak he's amazing!
2. But...he's got work to do
3. But...he could be amazing in the future!

As opposed to:

1. He needs a lot of work
2. He's amazing!
3. He could be a HOF!

All I could hear the first 5 minutes or so was, "His coach wasn't very good."

Is coronavirus over yet?

Yeah i'm not sure how he knows that he has so many missed assignments without knowing about our scheme. French even gives caveats that he doesn't know assignments in his film reviews, and he knows Bud's scheme as well as anyone who hasn't played in it.

Also LB is the hardest position to play in our Defense, because it's setup to funnel players to an open hitter and sometimes the LB has to go against the grain. I wonder if that's part of the problem.

Idk, there have been quite a few games in his career when afterwards many of us were thinking, "where the f*ck was Tre that game?" I think this guy was on point with his criticisms and I think our own film analysts have touched on similar mistakes as well. It's not really a direct criticism of our coaches, as I'm sure they have had words with Tre as well. He is only 19 so even with good coaching he will make tons of mistakes.

Yeah, I felt the same way as I was listening to a lot of what he was saying. And then I was thinking that Bud probably recognized the flaws, but in his normal risk/reward way, decided that the good outweighed the bad and let Tremaine do his thing.

Also Tre probably just isn't 100% mentally set yet when playing football. I bet Bud and company worked a lot on his decision making, but he is still super young. I recall many games during his time here where we brought up mistakes or just general misplay from him. He has the physical aspect down 100%, but still has to work on decision making. No matter to scheme, biting on weak play fakes that hard is something that needs improvement.

Still think he gets drafted top 15, which is amazing.
