[/ QUOTE ] I'm still not sure if I'm keeping him, but the fact is that Edge only helped the Colts passing game, not hurt it. In fact, I'm not sure Manning & his receivers will be nearly as effective without him. I don't know much about their new RB.

Re: Fantasy Football - who to keep?
Manning and the Colts as a team will be less effective.
That said, their passing game shoudl still be strong. As far as I've read Rhodes and Addai can both block very well..and that is enough to keep Manning off his back (which means he will be just fine passing). If anyone benefits the most from Edge leaving town, it is probably Stokely or Clark.
