What's it going to be then, eh?

Funny for a guy that probably would be out of the NFL if not for Brady and pick plays.

Exactly my friend..........
Edelman is a product of the system that really pushes the rules to the max in helping WR get open. None of those bums have the talent to work the outside and be a WR in the traditional #1/#2 role. They rely on a overabundance of pick plays/ crossing routes that allow them to get open. Edelman is the now the 2nd person on NE to get my coveted "who gives a flip if you get hurt award" list.

Dumb media contrivance, but hopefully Dez can broach Edelman's top 5 after he gets to see him in person later this season.

BTW, how is this system only nome worthy of comment?

Yes. Romo to Dez in super bowl 50 vs patriots with no time left.

THAT is how you squash THAT!

Geez this reporter stretched things for outrage.

But good on him I guess cause from this thread you can tell he got exactly what he wanted. People twisted up over nothing.

It's the guys personal top five. Likely his 5 favorite WR's to watch and such. This guy clearly isn't going by whose the actual best 5 WR's in the game.

People need to chill cause not everything in the world is a slight at something or someone you like.

I don't have any insights on Edelman on a personal level.

I have no way of knowing if he is worth of "d-bag" comments or not. Just did some googling and was surprised to come across this photo of him at the wailing wall in Jerusalem.

He goes to college parties to hook up and he's 29 years old.

How the heck did he juke Claiborne like that. He's not fast or athletic. He's a wuss.

Hard to argue this. The other 4 at least are all reasonably in the top 6-7 WRs in the NFL. Naming Steve Smith in his top 5 was puzzling which I think only solidifies the idea that Edelman didn't put a whole lot of thought into his answer.

It could be that Smith is small and plays with an edge like he does which is why he put him in HIS top 5.

Clearly one man's opinion. Doesn't surprise me that a small feisty WR has Steve Smith ranked that high. Jordy Nelson is more surprising IMO.

Not really, Jordy Nelson is a beast and he's one of the rare elite white receivers in the league, probably has a lot to do with it.

If Edelman was on the Cowboys right now, he would instantly become the #1 WR, with Dez being out of course.

They are pretty boy punks (Edelman and Brady) and Gronkowski is just an jerk period.

All of them deny the cheating tactics their team uses.

Wouldn't you deny it, especially if they believe that they're not cheating? Being a "pretty boy" doesn't justify them being beat up, and I think Gronk is too clueless to be a jerk.
