I was taking a look at some Patriots contracts and according to the website spotrac.com Edelmans cap hit for 2017 is 5.750,000 and he is an UFA next year.
He is a top 5 receiver in the league although he does not get the recognition he deserves but whatever.
He is in the last leg of his career I believe, his foot seems 100% healed, and he is the definition of what this team is all about, I think he was one of the first players BB hug on the field after the SB win, so why not making him a Patriot for life? Extending him now could give some cap relief for this year (not that we need) and securing his services for like another 3 years. The cap is going crazy every year and he is a fantastic player, if he tests the market next year its not crazy to think someone would pay him 10 Mi a year, and the Pats is not going to pay this for a WR.
