As with Robinson, Edelman is also coming off a torn ACL, so the extra time off may actually do him some good, particularly after he complained earlier this month of not having his "football legs" under him yet. But while the Patriots lost Brandin Cooks and Danny Amendola in the offseason, theoretically leaving plenty of work for Edelman, it remains to be seen how effective he is at age 32 and, crucially, how much target volume he can regain in an offense that may well have started humming along without him.
