The Titans utilize a one-gap 4-3 penetrating front, relying on quick, powerful defensive linemen to disrupt the backfield and generate pressure up the middle.
Edwards could compete for a rotational interior pass-rushing role in year one, with the upside to become a starting 3-technique tackle who can also kick outside in passing situations.
A true two-gap 3-4 defense would misuse Edwards' explosive penetration skills and require him to hold the point of attack more than attack.
His blend of size, strength, and burst makes him a good fit for a defense that prioritizes athletic, disruptive linemen.
Relative Athletic Score (Kent Lee Platte) benchmarks combine/pro-day numbers against every measured prospect at the position since 1987. 10.00 is elite; 5.00 is average.
