damn, this seems like a discount. patriots are dumb, though if they can get AMendola or re-sign Edleman i dont think they miss Welker much.

Didn't Denver also re-sign Clady?

Can't wait for Welker to say Peyton is the best QB he has ever played with next season.

This makes me giggle. I hope Josh McDaniels is red in the face right now, because I cannot explain my hatred of him after he tore Denver down.

Before Wes Welker agreed to terms on a two-year, $12 million deal with the Broncos, a source with knowledge of the market told PFT that slot receivers are “getting screwed.” Also feeling the turning of the screws is free-agent receiver Danny Amendola. Per the source, Amendola’s offers on the open market are coming in lower than what the Rams had offered. If that trend continues, Amendola could end up back in St. Louis. And now that Welker has gotten only $12 million over two years, the Patriots and others can put the screws to Amendola even more.

I can't believe they only paid that much. Hard to pick against Denver to win the conference. I'd take them over the field.

Great move by Broncos, a team that for really no single reason I've always rooted for, and they're getting a reasonable deal for a highmotorgymratwithfootballIQ.

Exactly what im saying. The only teams after him really were the Pats and Broncos so the market value was 5-6 million a season. Pats offered 5 million a year and the Broncos offered 6 million Whats your definition of market value?
