Edwards and Gary O'Neil represent the early names under consideration to succeed Vitor Pereira as manager of Wolves.
Pereira was dismissed on the weekend after the squad's ten-game winless start to the top-flight campaign.
And both candidates - both of who have historic associations to the team - are among the names to be evaluated by the club ownership.
The manager is presently at Middlesbrough, which would create a possible obstacle to his hiring at Wolves' stadium.
However the former Luton head coach - who played over a century of appearances for Wolves during his playing career - is considered a strong contender for the position.
The mid-career manager is said to have support from the Wolves board as they start the search of hiring a fresh head coach.
O'Neil is also appearing as a unexpected candidate, even though he would be a shock appointment considering he was sacked by the club in December last year.
The former West Ham United midfielder is currently unemployed which means Wolves would not need to pay any buyout fee.
