I don't have a problem with Ed being in the blues team at the moment. I have a problem with having too many fringe players in the team at once, taking away position's from young kids. Saying that there is a few players that should go before Ed.
Also you can't honestly say Ed Curnow would be on every other AFL list. If he was a delisted free agent, I'm not sure if any other club would pick him up do to age and ability.

He's rated the 145th best player in the AFL by the AFL's own metrics. He's the 66th best midfielder, if you sort by position.
You can make the argument that he wouldn't get a gig in a contending team on GF day, but we've all seen plenty of average footballers walk away with a flag to their name. I can also make the counter-argument that without guys like Ed Curnow, we'll never get to a position where we can contend for a flag in the first place.
