Are you sure he wasn't saying what Thomas got but said Welker by mistake?

It's likely that the contract is severely backloaded and there is a poison pill provision in the offer. There could be 18-20 million in the last two years of the contract, which Welker will likely never see (he'll be extended or released before that) but which would become guaranteed if Miami was to match the offer. The contract is probably around 5 years, 18 million or so, which is a good price for a guy like Welker.

no, he was totally talking about welker....he was also saying things like "if only had miami tendered him at the 1.8 mil level, then they could have at least gotten a first rounder"

this is all insanely exciting to be such major players in free agency. getting thomas alone would have made it the best offseason ever.
