Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
He missed the Browns' final four games, and had to wait until swelling in his knee subsided before he could have surgery. Although Romeo Crennel hopes he returns sooner, player typically needs eight months to recover from the operation, a timetable that could make it difficult for Edwards to be ready for Cleveland's 2006 season opener.
