This kind of news isn't supposed to get out before the appeals process is through, but it usually does. Like the vast majority of suspended players, Edelman is likely to lose his appeal. It's a major blow for a team that let Danny Amendola walk in free agency before trading Brandin Cooks. Of course, the Pats were already without Edelman in 2017 as he recovered from a torn ACL. He's turned 32 in the interim. Chris Hogan is now set up to be a fantasy monster for the first four weeks of the season, though Tom Brady's target delineation figures to be unpredictable. Including James White, Rex Burkhead, Kenny Britt, Jordan Matthews, Malcolm Mitchell and perhaps even sixth-rounder Braxton Berrios, there is no shortage of potential beneficiaries.

(CBS/AP) BOSTON - New England Patriots' wide receiver Julian Edelman was arrested early Tuesday for allegedly groping a woman during a Halloween party at a Boston nightclub.

A woman identified only as Sabrina posted the above photo to Tinder this week with a caption reading, "Just f--ked Edelman. No lie."
Unfortunately, she didn't offer any details as to whether or not the pint-sized wideout lives up to his nickname of "Mini-tron."
So while Tom Brady jumps for joy and Rob Gronkowski continues to stomp around the nation like a drunken bro-hulk, Edelman has clearly decided to celebrate by finding holes and penetrating defenses, and who could blame him?

A Swedish model planned to take a New England Patriots star to court as she claimed that he is the father of her unborn child. Ella Rose has filed court documents in Los Angeles that say Julian Edelman is her baby’s daddy, according to TMZ. The gossip site, quoting sources, says that Edelman and Rose have had a “casual relationship for about two years.” Rose is thought to be five months pregnant.

Look at my post, I posted something in quotes so I am glad you read this post. The one I posted in quotes.

For a team that is always focused on getting to the Super Bowl, they do seem to have a lot of offseason drama.

He'll miss games against the Texans, Jaguars, Lions, and Dolphins. Rob Gronkowski will handle most of the Weeks 1-4 receiving load, with Chris Hogan in the No. 1 wideout role. We may also see Rex Burkhead used frequently in the slot. Edelman's four-game ban still has a chance to render him a value in fantasy drafts. He should return immediately as a WR2 beginning in Week 5.

4 games for a substance they are not naming and 3 games for groping a woman?
