Seems unlikely.

Dolphins seem to want to build slow through the draft and its not a guarentee Harvin would sign an extension with a team in rebuilding

Go ahead and take Mr. Dropsies. Guy is going to be seeking a ridiculous amount of money that he isn't worth.

Welker is good, but he drops so many balls, and it's getting to the point where, if it's a big moment, he freaking drops it.

Keep Lloyd, drop Mankins and put Thomas in there while sliding Cannon to guard, get Bowe, and get Harvin.

I hate how the league overvalues draft picks. I bet there will not be a single WR in this draft that is better than Harvin, let alone available in the 2nd or 3rd round.

I know! It defies logic. If it came down to talent alone, i highly doubt there's a receiver of Harvin's caliber available in the 2nd-3rd round. All I can figure is that it also has something to do with the salary cap or something. It just doesn't make sense.

Welker... drops so many balls

FWIW, Welker droppen fewer balls last year (9) than Brandon Marshall (10), Calvin Johnson (10), Victor Cruz (10), and Jimmy Graham (13).

His drop rate is still high, and he's getting older.

He's replaceable, hell just put Hernandez as a Y.

Its not really the number of drops, its when he drops them.

Huge moments at the end of the game and he doesnt haul them in.

I can only think of two important drops by Welker (granted, that's two too many, but still). Nevertheless, just to play devil's advocate. . . Why not just avoid passing to Welker in clutch situations?

He had one or two vs the ravens in the last game.

And the problem is hell be solid all game and be open that play...but then drop it

Again, id like to have him back but at 10 plus million a year? Ehhhh id rather revamp.

He would be amazing with the Patriots. The Broncos need to try to make a move for him.

Bump. The Patriots and Harvin thing is making more sense now

Reports are that Welker and Lloyd could be let go by the Pats this week and that the Pats might try to revamp their Recieving Corp with a strong X reciever (Mike Wallace? ) and another dynamic playmaker which fits the bill for Harvin.

It could be a lot like the pre 07 offseason where BB just frick it and got as many play makers on te outside as possible

Yall can go ahead and take Wallace. Dude was dropping EVERYTHING this year after making a fuss about his contract before the season began.

Cost Ben at LEAST 4 sure TD's from what I remember...
