When Edelman started, he had 7 rec/game. That isn't a #4 guy. He appeared to be a #4, because his skill set puts him in a similar role to Welker. When Wes wath healthy, Edelman rarely played. He's a slot guy, and is VERY productive when he plays.
That was because of the huge game he had against the Jets when Welker was out. When Welker came back, he was a #4 WR. I love Edelman and I'm not knocking the guy, but he was what he was. To be a WR4 in this system in your rookie season ON TOP of transitioning from college QB to WR is very impressive. But he was a WR4. There is no way around that.
