IMO If Welker is not re-signed,he is going to end up where he was traded from .....the Dolphins
Miami regrets trading him and they would take him back in a millisecond
He is just a better version of Davone Bess and Bush catches a lot of slot catches too. Miami would go for Wallace over Welker IMO.
I have never seen a QB depend so much ON A WR then Brady has the last couple of years with Welker.They have to draft a wr or 2 in the draft next year.
There you go again calling him a "slot" receiver. How very dare you!
After being almost invisible the first two games of the year, Welker is on pace for 123 receptions and 1419 yards.
Franchise him again?
Sign him to a 2-3 year extension?
Trade him? (I do wonder what they could get for him)
Welker had a 2 year deal on the table, but turned it down for some reason (presumably money). We franchised him this year, and considering our Free Agents to be, we may want to use that tag on someone else (Vollmer possibly), not to mention the price tag for Welker would increase if we franchised him again.
It's clear that Welker is still the key cog that makes this offense go. Let's hope both parties can settle on a salary and have him remain in Foxboro for at least another 2 years. I would go no higher than 3, for obvious reasons.
Gotta sign him at this point, right? The guy is on track for his 5th 110 reception season. No one else has ever had more than TWO. I understand it's hard to put a lot of value on the slot receiver position, but damn, at some point you just have to accept that the guy is special and pay him.
For those who are concerned about the age of a wide receiver needs some perspective on Reggie Wayne's performance this season:
