How confident are we that Edelman plays?

Need to decide between Mike Evans against STL tonight or Edelman Sunday vs Tenn. Assuming he plays, Edelman has the much better matchup.

What do y'all think?

No Vincent Jackson for the Bucs. And you don't know how effective Edelman will be coming off of injury, I would go Evans

Said it on Fantasy Football Radio on XM 87. But they have NOT ruled him out. Just said very unlikely.

I hate playing players on Thursday, and I'd start Evans

You can't count on Edelman even if he plays. Look how limited Bryant has been, just not the same player

Evans is a better play regardless

Evans will be blanketed all night and won't be very effective

As an Evans owner, he's been frustrating all year. V Jax was out most of last week against the terrible Saints and Evans came up with a dud.

That being said, you 100% have to play him over Edelman.. who likely won't even play.

Yeah even if Edelman plays, he might not be at 100% strength anyway. Go with Evans since they will be without Vincent Jackson, and St. Louis defense not exactly playing great the past few weeks.

This is what I feel.

Plus I hardly ever have luck going against STL defense at home. Seems like every time I go against them they turn into the 85 Bears. I'm just feeling a 13-10 type game.

To the OP, you can't frick with Edelman this week.

I'm not a wizard. He's going up against a good defense with no help.

If I knew Edelman was playing, I would 100% roll with him. Im also not expecting much out of Evans this week.

Julian Edelman (foot) is listed as doubtful for Week 15 against the Titans. Edelman has resumed practicing on a limited basis, but he's not quite ready for game action yet.
