Fantasy Impact: Getting any kind of concrete information out of the Patriots is nigh impossible, but considering the short turnaround from Thursday to Sunday it is probably a safe bet that Edelman will sit out a third straight game. What kind of fantasy value he will have once healthy is still unclear. Edelman was stealing snaps from Wes Welker before getting hurt, but he didn't turn an increased role into much production. Hold off on making any kind of waiver move for the wideout until his prospects are more clearly defined.
