Edelman - Probably Good As Gone

[Yankee Traveler]

Edelman said today that he is not retiring. "We still have things to do." He apparently is planning to be in Foxboro in 2021.

This is not a bad thing.

apparently he believes that he has played his last game for the Pats.

I am reading it that was as well. I mean no Gronk and no Brady... Patriots heading in the wrong direction (though we can't truly say that unless BB tanks the draft) so it's looking like he is gone

Trade him to TB for Scottie Miller and a 5th rounder?

He got a raw deal when they brought in AB.

I agree and he was getting separation yesterday we do not have a WR on the roster that can do that. I joked before all our WRs have separation anxiety!

Miller and a 5th would be better compensation than you got for Gronk.

I'd do it it for Miller straight up. But Godwin is FA and Miller will have a much bigger role next year. Plus we'll have to see what he can do in SB LVI

Good point Godwin will get paid somewhere.

Buy him tody! If he has a good SB, forget it, you won't get him.....

Julian Edelman (knee) is expected to play in 2021.​

Edelman is signed through next year, but there's been talk he could retire after back-to-back injury-riddled seasons. At a $2.8 million base salary, the Patriots should be open to keeping him, even if Edelman can't be counted on as more than a No. 3 receiver. 34-year-old Edelman missed the final 10 games on IR with a knee injury but should be ready for the start of OTAs

Yeah.
I know.
How many Super Bowls did Stanley win?
How many Super Bowls did Welker win?
Combined they don't have half as many rings as Edelman.
Hell, combined they don't have half as many Super Bowl MVP's as Edelman.

He may not be the most durable WR ever, but he is damn sure the toughest, when he gets hurt, he just doesn't care.

Yeah as much as I would hate to see him go why not pull the trigger on that move? Though would Brady want just one yet of Julian compared to a few with Miller? I would think yes.... Nice slot guy to open up the field even more for AB and Evans.

They have a small window.....1-2 years of Edelman to try and win a title.
