I'd like to see the team keep Welker AND draft a big bodied receiver that can threaten every level, and specializes in doing work outside the hashes. Think of the personnel packages we could put together. Think of how dangerous this team would be in the red zone.
Lets say your scenario happens. The Patriots resign Welker and spend draft resources on a outside receiver.
We hit the playoffs, start playing defenses with a pulse, and our offense for whatever reason (key player injury, not clicking, etc..) isn't putting up points.
Other team marches down the field and because the Patriots don't have crap but JAGs on defense they score some points. Meanwhile, our offense is left stupefied because they're getting locked down and now there's a hole in the defensive wall.
I don't understand how Patriot fans have become so offensive minded. We won championships on defense. Now everyone wants to blow cash on Welker and draft picks on receivers. Screw that, shore up the defense. Let one of the best QBs of all time work his magic with less.
I'm tired of going into the playoffs with, "one of the best offenses of all time!!!" and then getting crushed by a defense that has a pair of balls. And then everyone here blames the defense. You can't blame the defense when management put all their marbles into the offensive basket. It's not working, time to move on. Cya Welker!
