    Ah crap. With some development he could have been Morrow's heir.

    I suspect he'll be back just like the Irwin situation last year when Atlanta drafted him in the expansion draft.

    I still can't believe they left him unprotected. Jesus. We better trade back for him. He has a future.

    Who would you have exposed? Hagglund? Zavaleta? Osorio?

    Same thing would've happened.

    Calculated risk. Osorio probably less likely to be taken if left exposed (much higher salary on top of being international), but bigger loss if taken. Edwards, more likely to be taken, but less of a loss. They took the safer approach and I'm sure they wouldn't do anything differently even if they knew what was going to happen

    Osorio would have been flipped to Vancouver or Montreal, guaranteed!

    I got upset at this news, but then I just reminded myself that we won the cup! That helped.

    Well that settles it.. we must burn down LA.

    Figuratively of course, in today's legal climate this disclaimer may be needed.

    On positive note, he probably be getting consistent minutes with Impact which is good for national team.

    Well it is exactly what happened with Raheem being pegged for a move up the 401/20.

    I thought Edwards was better than Osorio, Hasler, or Delgado, during the first part of the year. He was very good most games, Had pace, composure, accurate distribution, and good tackler. Then he disappeared for most of the second half. Did he piss off Vanney? Was he hurt? I think he will be a star in MLS

    He started off incredibly hot then just cooled off a bit. Had a real bad performance against Ottawa in the VCup.

    No question he's a good player and I think he'll develop into an everyday MLS starter if he isn't already. The good thing for him is he should get lots of playing time, it just makes me sick to my stomach it has to be with Montreal.

    It's a sad day... It won't be the same seeing him in blue next season. I hope he does well but Montreal doesn't

    Edwards has more upside than Osorio and Zavaleta so yeah I would've done that.

    I'd expose all three over Raheem.

    Oh well, hope Bez signs some nice big talent to make me forget about this. But it sucks.

    As bad as it is for us as fans think how awful it must be for Edwards.

    top of the world one day with Champions league to look forward to then being shipped to your rivals, a team hated by basically everyone you know, that has got to really suck. If I was Edwards I'd try to look for a European option rather than ever suit up for the Impact
