Pics 4 & 5 are a different species, I'd guess Boletus.

You have two different species here. 2, 3, 6, 7 look like Suilluses, 4 and 5 is a Boletus. All edible, though Suilluses aren't terribly choice.
4 and 5 are probably B. chrysenteron, possibly B. rubellus. Could be B. rubripes if it blues strongly and tastes bitter, in which case it would be inedible.
2, 3, 6, 7 might by S. caerulescens.

Yup. Xerocomus type bolete.

I got tons of these Bolete things on my lawn in the fall. They're decent when dried, but they really don't compare to B. edulis.

I pickle them whole when they are still wee buttons. The texture is excellent and they carry their buttery flavour for quite awhile.
-------------------- I advise any noob looking to identify mushrooms to fill out the ID form and provide clear photographs. Knowledge is a privilege and deserves respect. Let's give due props to the experts!

So from what I've been reading, it looks like pretty much most of the boletes are edible, with varying degrees of tastiness. As long as you don't mess around with the red ones... yeah?
Should I go ahead and try them?

The red-stiped Bolete should be ok as long as it doesn't have a bitter taste. So should the Suilluses, even though you probably won't experience a culinary epiphany with them. I suggest removing the pores in both species before cooking, and also the slimy membrane on top of the cap for the Suilluses.
I usually don't bother with Suilluses, but maybe someone has a recipe suggestion for them.
Edit: Found this recipe for Suillus soup, might be worth trying: http://www.wildmushroomrecipes.org/recipes/suillus-soup
