If you are talking multiplayer commander its going to be impossible to give you an exact answer. Politics and banding together to overcome problems is a natural part of commander. This said, I would say that non stasis Derevi is probably going to be the worst of your options.
I think Edric is incredibly strong but ultimately he suffers when opponents are playing decks on the same tier of play. Opponents playing fast combo decks with interaction are going to make you stumble hard and generally speaking the deck is incredibly reliant on the commander. I understand that it potentially draws a lot of cards but the deck is VERY dependent on spinning itself up that first time so the way to beat him is to disrupt by countering / killing him before you move to combat. If you can stick Edric the first time you are very resiliant after that but slowing you down the first few times you cast him is how you lose games.
Given this, I would say stasis Derevi with the notice that I don't play at this level myself but I have played an all out Edric deck at one point immediately after he released so I am aware of his pros and cons.

I have officially moved to MTGNexus. I just wanted to let people know as my response time to salvation decks being bumped is very hit or miss.
