Edwards along with O'Neil are two of the early names in the frame to replace Vitor Pereira as manager of Wolverhampton Wanderers.
The previous coach was dismissed on the weekend following the team's 10-match winless beginning to the Premier League campaign.
Furthermore Edwards and O'Neil - each of whom have previous associations to the team - are among the options to be considered by the club leadership.
Edwards is presently at another club, which would pose a possible hurdle to his appointment at Wolves' stadium.
Nevertheless the former Luton Town manager - who made more than 100 of games for the club during his playing career - is considered a strong contender for the position.
The 42-year-old is said to have backing from the club directors as they begin the search of appointing a new head coach.
O'Neil is additionally emerging as a unexpected candidate, although he would be a surprising choice given he was released by Wolves in the previous winter.
The ex- West Ham United midfielder is currently unemployed meaning the club would not need to pay any buyout fee.
