Yes. Welker was brought in as a return man and slot reciever, before Moss and I believe before Stallworth. Our WR's at the time would have been Branch, Caldwell, Washington (if before Welker?), and other non starting caliber WR's. So I don't see why it would've stopped us from bringing in Welker.
I do wonder if Stallworth/Moss would not have been brought in under your hypothetical scenario. But I think Welker was coming regardless.

Wes Welker Q&A – Miami Dolphins – Sun-SentinelQ: Did you notice a big difference between the first Patriots game this past season and the second game in terms of the way they defended you in that second game?
WW: “I was getting double-teamed every play I was out there. It was a frustrating day. It was one of those deals where you’re kind of excited about it, but at the same time, you’re upset that you’re not able to produce like you know you’re capable of.”
Yes.
After the game he had with the Dolphins against the Pats, Belichick was going to sign him if he had any chance to - regardless of what other receivers were on the roster.
Miami made a huge error in what they thought other NFL teams - or at least one specific NFL team - would be willing to give up for him when they made him a restricted free agent.
You also have to factor that Nick Saban give Welker the highest recommendation to BB.
