Depth is always welcome. And he has a lot of upside.

Like the DL depth they are addressing.

so long Ziggy

Has nothing to do with ziggy
This is for depth and shouldn't cost much at all

Info from Nola.com
"The 25-year-old Edwards was a second-round pick by the Raiders in 2015. He started 10 games as a rookie then played just two as a reserve in 2016. He returned to the starting lineup in 2017, but in 2018, the Raiders cut him after the preseason. He then joined the Giants where he was a backup, playing 23 percent of the defensive snaps.
In Edwards’ 45 career games, he has 85 tackles, 7.5 sacks and four forced fumbles, three of which came his rookie season."

From November 2017
quote:
A healthy Mario Edwards Jr. has proven to be a productive piece within the Oakland Raiders’ interior defensive line this season, especially against the run.
Among 3-4 defensive ends with 100+ run snaps in 2017, Edwards ranks No. 2 in run stop percentage (11.7) and No 3 in total run stops (17). To add perspective, none of the other 3-4 defensive ends on the Raiders’ roster have amassed more than seven run stops this season, nor has one recorded a run stop percentage north of 5.9.

Must mean Tyler Davison is gone.
Rotation of:
Onyemata, Brown, Stallworth, Edwards
While Rankins is injured.

Lotta pedigree on the interior, I like it

Tyeler Davidson was gone when we signed Malcolm Brown
Mario Edwards was signed to replaced Alex Okafor
wouldn't be surprised if they added another DL

One thing about all those players is they are nasty big bodies. Defense gone have some attitude up front.

Hopefully nielsen can get him to play to his potential

Gotcha so Edwards will be used as a big end to stop the run and seal the edge and may be slid inside on pass rushing downs? At least until Davenport completely takes over at DE?

I think this is a fair assessment... and I think they’ll still try to sign Ziggy as a pass rush specialist

Hendrickson still has a chance to contribute as well.

No don't think they would sign ziggy as a pass rush specialist.
Mario edwards is more of an inside guy.
Think about it rankins won't be there to start so 3 man of onyamata and brown with edwards mixing in
