I don't fully agree but here's why. Edelman has always been money in the bank on 3rd and long. If you need 9 he gets you 9 and a half to 12 yards. This is after Gronk went down. Gronk helps, but Edelman is pretty awesome in his own right. And teams can't afford to double Edelman the reason d=being we have Lewis, White, Amendola and a few others to account for. You can't afford to lose two guys covering one against our Offense.Gronk's real value comes on 3rd and long when he is almost always a threat with edelman lurking underneath. without him, teams can double edelman .I am surprised more teams dont put a punt protection unit on edelman on every 3rd down.
