First off, I wouldn't trade Welker, as there are too many question marks at WR and he is a guy whose leadership is also valuable. That being said, do you really think someone would trade a second rounder for the 30 year old possession receiver? At this point, he might be like Branch outside of NE, nothing special...and probably only has a couple of big years left, before quickness fades.

We could easily ship Wes and not miss a beat. He's older now and didnt have such a great season last year.

What do you think we could get for West? Would you want to trade him?
Have you been drinking?

Wes is one year removed from knee surgery and we all know what Tom did coming off that injury,I see Wes having a great year.

Wes is simply untradable THIS year....now next year when money comes into focus could be a different situation,we may not have a choice but to move on if we don't give him the money he requests.

The OP has been notoriously known for providing us with threads that are irritating and raise your blood pressure because he loves to see us get a rise out of it and he knows he is anonymous like we all are so it's like an annual game to him....ignore it.

All of that said, I still don't get how Welker is supposed to be expendable. Edelman can't just step in and do what Welker does. Even if he could reliably stay on the field, which he can't, it would be a substantial downgrade.
If Edelman was half as good as Welker with Hernandez and Gronkowski. How much production is the NE offense really missing? I dont know about you, but I want those TEs on the foeld as much as possible. NE can pound the ball or pass out of TE sets.

Then you have Ocho and Branch. Consider Branch basically filled in for Moss after he left, so Ocho is going to take away receptions from someplace. I dont see why the NE slot WR has to have near 100 plus receptions every season.
