Around SBN: Devils Beat Rangers, Head To Stanley Cup Finals

We need to be cautious as a fan base

We all miss B. Edwards..Hell I wish he never left. I was one of those that said keep Edwards before Holmes around this time last year. I also think that if he actually never did leave he would not have been injured (pure speculation on my part) But we must remember this is a business, so the real question is....HOW HEALTHY IS HE? Injured, back to form, who out there knows?? Physical run blocker, or timid play after the snap?, fast as ever or lost a step in his speed? We already have a big tall WR that has great hands, but it takes him 2 weeks per play to get open (Plaxico) I don’t know the extent of Edwards injury, but we need to find out. Not sure what the injury was, but we have to ask the question, is he healed enough to be the Edwards that we remember or is he damaged goods... Disregard emotional attachment and be medically honest here. (I know it's hard because he did some great things for this team on the field) I don't even know the exact nature of his injury (knee I think) and it is possible it's no big deal at all; but I do know that before we as a fan base get to excited about his possible return we need an honest assessment. I say this because if he is damaged goods we may as well go for Nick Toon in round 3...but if healthy I will be the first one cheering his return.

I agree

Loved Braylon. Loved that beard and the flightboy dance. Great memories. But they are just memories. He needs to prove himself before we can get back on this flight. He and Sanchez already have a comfort level and he can be a difference maker, but its not automatic. What if 2011 was a fluke and now he dropps balls again?
I also think Sanchez needs a long term answer. Not just a plug for a year or two.

Thank you RTJ

BTW first REC on this site in while…

and I miss him as well, he brought a lot to the table…expecailly in the run game. Most WR just hang out on runs, but he did more than that…a real assest. But as a business we have to ask the tough questions.
like i said though if 100% (or even 90%) i will be the first to cheer for his return

I wanted to keep Edwards but if he’s glass we have to take a pass.

keep in mind

I really dont know the extent of his injury so if anyone out there has good info let us know

It will be interesting to see where he ends up

I don’t think he is signing more than a year deal anywhere

Hah, I was at the first Miami game this year when they honored Toon. When everyone started screaming “TOOOOOOON” the Australian couple next to me were extraordinarily confused since they thought everyone was yelling a different, derogatory word towards the black man.
