SS Terrell Edmunds @rell_island6 expected to start Sunday against the Browns. Second year in a row No. 1 pick will start in season

Little surprised, not shocked but surprised..
 
Morgan Burnett not playing?
 
He's a playmaker. I'm fine with the decision. I hope Matthew Thomas plays a lot too.
 
I believe Browns will try to go to their TE's a lot in the game. It should be a good test.
 
Well **** look at that. I think we are going to run a lot of packages and you’ll see a lot of safeties on the field for us throughout the game. I think Njoku is a weapon they’re going to try and hammer us with

I read the thinking is Burnett will come off the bench in some packages to defend against the run, etc. I am sure he will still play a significant amount of snaps...
 
Wow I'm pretty shocked. I thought Burnett was a shoe in to be the starter with Edmunds working in on certain packages. Whelp...
 
A little surprised but his start is with vision of him getting better as season progresses and firing on all cylinders come nov / dec.

I'm surprised Cool Shades starting a rookie, do you think the NEW 2ndary coach had input..........

With Burnett injured all of training camp. Edmunds got all the snaps. Plus the coaches were impressed with his ability to diagnose the offense and call the correct plays. Communication is KEY and we need a communicator in there. Dude is a legit first round talent, so all you lamenters with safety envy can let go of your angst and watch this incredibly talented, intelligent football player start making plays for us.

2 years in a row we have a rookie starter on D. (Watt last year). This isn't a Tomlin thing, this is a not having LeBeau thing.
