Not necessarily. Edward is not human, and Predators use their weapons against superstrong opponents.
There's nothing about Edward to indicate as a threat. He has no sharp teeth or sharp claws. They'd probably take him on h2h and then they'd be ph#cked.
Now if they go on stealth mode and then attack with weapons, that could work. Assuming that:
1. Their weapons will work on Edward
2. Edward's telepathy won't warn him of the preds
3. The preds can actually see Edward. Arnold was able to disguise himself with mud. The twivamps are supposedly cold, like dead. Don't know if the preds will see him.

I'd argue even if stealthed, Edward's sense of smell and hearing would easily pick em out.
And please explain why you believe his telepathy would not work on them. There is no way the Preds get the drop on him. Even without his crazy speed he himself is the perfect predator in terms of all his enhanced senses.

What?
Dutch in the first Predator film was able to camouflage himself in mud and that made him invisible to the predator's vision. It looked like it was because it masked his heat signature. Considering that Edward isn't hot, doesn't even have living organs in him, it's questionable whether the preds can actually see him.

I'm not saying Edward's telepathy won't work. I'm saying the Pred's stealth will only work if Edward's telepathy won't.

That's actually a very good point. So then where do we stand? The preds may not actually see Ed because of his lack of heat. They also probably would not be able to sneak up on him due to his senses. His telepathy may or may not work..and even so..we don't know how it works with beings whose language he doesnt understand. How does is mind reading work? Do the preds "think" in their native tongue?
Anyway without his speed, he is at a severe disadvantage of their plasma cannons. If he got up close i think he would rip them apart but can he get close is the question.

Well if they can't see his heat signature they'll know something is up.
