Julian Edelman missing from practice Wednesday, fantasy value slipping
Julian Edelman missed practice Wednesday for the New England Patriots, according to reports. We break down the fantasy implications.


Fantasy Impact: Edelman was seemingly poised to become a big part of the Patriots' offense before suffering a hand injury. The organization has been mum (per usual) on the exact nature of Edelman's ailment, so it's difficult to tell just how much more time he will miss. Once he is able to return, wait and see how he performs before rushing to pick him up off waivers. Despite rumors to the country, Wes Welker does not appears to be in any danger of losing his role within the offense.
