Will it be televised? I think the training camp will be more interesting to watch than a lot of games next season (which will hopefully be blowouts)

Edelman will be lucky to have any job with the Patriots at all, IMO. The ST only positions look as if they've been dealt with already, so it looks as if Edelman will have to beat out about a lot of WRs for the last spot on the WR depth chart.

I can't see him getting cut. He has too much versatility.

Adam Seward

Id be really surprised if he didnt have a spot on the final roster. Hes displayed versatility, heart and toughness. If he isnt the pure football player that BB loves, Im not sure who is.

Not sure what games some of you were watchng last year......Edelman will win a team slot as a....football player....BB will find a place for him.

Most of us watched a lot of games where he didn't excel at anything except returning punts.

He's one of my favorite players, but this roster is looking stocked to the point where he might not even be top quality depth. Time will tell. I don't want to see him go, but I don't want to give a roster spot to someone I like over someone who can offer more.

Deus Irae

Great. Set the roster and find that place for him.

How the heck could BB dump a guy that plays PR. WR, DB and KR all at replacement level or better. It's incomprehensible.

This. Edelman seems to be on the field the entire game. Not that he was great, but they had him take snaps as RB too. And he's the guy for the reverse, and is targeted (for better or worse) in emergency situations when they hope he squirms and ducks defenders for a late-game homerun. And he's Welker's backup.

He could likely be an emergency quarterback. In the pre-season scrimmages they should let him attempt a few field goals just for kicks.
