Welker now a Bronco
 
Tough to see Wes Welker go, but I wish him luck in Denver. He was a hell of a player for the Patriots

WOW!!! Can't believe the Pats didn't re-sign him.

This off season has really shown no loyalty anywhere to anyone. There are so many god players being released or let go in fa it is amazing.

2 years 12 million? Good signing.

Welker will be great in Denver with Manning. Broncos offense uses the slot in a similar way to NE.

Danny Amendola is going to the Pats now. Should fill in very nicely to Welker's role. Although more of an injury risk.

CRAZY offseason. The Cuts alone blow my mind. Bernard Pollard, James Harrison being cut? Crazy.

Hell the Ravens will the bowl and they gut the team, I'm sure Flac's giant contract had nothing to do with it :r

Exactly! Once Anquan Boldin got traded for a friggin 6th round draft pick, I immediately said to myself, "Nice job Joe."

The only loyalty has been to $$$$

Payaton Manning was the same way in Indy.

Think it will be fun to watch Manning and Welker..

I can believe they got rid of Welker... They got rid of Moss who was equally as great while a Patriot. Everyone the Pat's has had in this position has been injured and perhaps there are some details to Welker's health the Pats kept close to vest.

Welker and Manning is going to be awesome, I can't wait to see the Pat vs. Bronocos this season.

I trust the Pat's know what they are doing in general and will reserve comment until the start of the season. Amendola has had some injury history; just baffling to pay him more than Welker and he is an uknown. Remember Ocho Cinco?

12 games and 68 passes caught, 3 TD in the past 2 years.

That said, when he is on the field, the kid has proved to be productive. Another added bonus, a few of the injuries, the ones that seem to have caused the most missed time, are upper body(clavicle and elbow) and sort of freak. Not sure about the heel injury....



As a Broncos fan, feel like it was a great pick up, as they plugged in a great player to a need.

Danny Amendola has had health issues because he's a one-man team. He's the only guy who wears a Rams helmet that gives 110% on every single play, he's forever on the field, and the Rams have had no reason to hold him back. He's their only highlight reel.
I'd have given a left nut to have him in Pittsburgh. He's as close a Hines Ward as there is in the NFL right now. He even comes to play football rather than to collect a check.

Boldin was a great second option, but he was dealt strategically. He had a year left at 6M. The Ravens just needed to put him where he was least likely to hurt them.
The Ravens look silly right now. They're not. While everyone else is restructuring their asses off to get under the cap and therefore screwing themselves royally for the future, Ozzie Newsome is playing within the constraints of his budget. He can make space this year and burn some latent cap issues as necessary.
The Ratbirds have a deep bench and can replace everything they've done except for Boldin. They'll fix that soon, and likely through the draft. It's filthy with WR's this year.

Welker will bust his ass anywhere. There's a reason NE made the switch. They made a play to move him last year and didn't get it done. I don't know what the problem was there. Stephen would know if he sticks his face in here.
