Quarterback Rank: #17
Overall: #85
Edwards missed a couple games last season with a groin injury, but had a pretty successful first season as the full-time starter for the Bills. He completed an impressive 66 percent of his passes. He also had 14 total touchdowns to 10 interceptions. Edwards still needs to improve his decision making, though, and take more shots downfield. He dinks and dunks a lot. He 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 as evident by his three touchdown runs. Edwards has an NFL makeup and should be the Bills starting quarterback for the next several years. And while the Bills aren't a prolific passing team, Buffalo could be airing it out a little more with Terrell Owens on board for this season.

Edwards should improve on last season, especially with a guy like Owens on his side. He has two top receivers to work with in '09. He could be more of a spot starter for fantasy teams, likely setting career highs across the board. He could throw for 3,500 or so yards and 20 touchdowns, which is serviceable but not off the charts. |

| The Associated Press reports Buffalo Bills QB Trent Edwards (concussion) sustained his third concussion of his NFL career Sunday, Oct. 18, and his status is uncertain for Week 7. Head coach Dick Jauron said Edwards was healthy enough to travel home with the team, but the team is taking his injury day-to-day. QB Ryan Fitzpatrick, who went 10-for-25 for 116 yards and a touchdown Sunday, would start in Week 7 if Edwards is unable to play. |
| Fantasy Impact: We would expect Edwards to sit at least this week, especially with his history. Look for Fitzpatrick to get the start. |

| Mary Kay Cabot, of the Cleveland Plain Dealer, reports Cleveland Browns defensive coordinator Rob Ryan was critical of Buffalo Bills QB Trent Edwards, saying Edwards is someone who does a lot of talking but does not back it up with his play. 'I don't think that's (Cincinnati Bengals quarterback) Carson Palmer back there by any stretch,' Ryan said. 'He's not. Not too many quarterbacks are. The guy can run and do some things, but we've played Brett Favre, we've played Carson Palmer. Those are two pretty good quarterbacks right there. This guy (Edwards) always seems to have a lot to say.' |
