Quarterback Rank: #79
Overall: #457
Edwards lost his starting job quickly in Buffalo. He was eventually released and signed with the Jaguars to be their top backup. Edwards even got in a few games last season, but like past seasons, he wasn't very impressive. In five games, Edwards had two touchdowns to five interceptions and completed just 55 percent of his passes. For his career, Edwards has more interceptions (30) than touchdown passes (26), which isn't very encouraging. He is just 27 years old, though, so his career isn't over but his chances to start seem to be about over. he should serve as the top backup in Oakland this season, competing with Kyle Boller for that job. Edwards does have a career 61 percent completion percentage, but that number is high because he doesn't take many chances downfield. Until he starts making plays downfield and limiting turnovers, Edwards won't be an NFL starter. Edwards is a big kid with good technique and a strong arm. He also isn't very fast, but can make some plays with his feet. Edwards has the tools to be an NFL quarterback, but seems to lack the intangibles.

Edwards has gotten plenty of chances, but never seized those chances. We don't see a turnaround this season. Don't bother with him on your fantasy team. |

| Fantasy Impact: Neither are great options but it would seem Boller might bring a little more to the table at this point. We'll see. |
