[Andy]

Agreed to the deal!

HUGE NEWS!!

Adam Schefter ‏@AdamSchefter

Wes Welker has agreed to terms with Denver Broncos.

Two year deal! Best receiving corps in the league and they have Manning! Dangerous...

[Dustin]

Just hand them the trophy.

[Indyfan4life]

Wow. This is huge news. Welker probably can't wait to play the Patriots with Peyton throwing to him.

[CR91]

well thomas and deckers fantasy value just took a nosedive

[Fx Stryker]

Now who does Brady throw to?

 

They better hope they get Amendola and he stays healthy.

 

We all know Gronk will pull his disappearing act come January. 

[amfootball]

If Pats sign Pollard its good night Welker. :-)

[Fx Stryker]

Only a two year deal too. Patriots must've not wanted him at all.

[James]

Wow. Perfect fit for Peyton. Thomas, Decker and Welker? How do you stop that? 

 

[Dustin]

Best receiving core in the league? What happened to Atlanta?

 

Julio > Thomas

White > Decker

Douglas < Welker

Gonzalez > Tamme?

 

Probably 2nd best though.

[amfootball]

More like he didn't want the Pats. Their deal was for more than that. It's ok. Time to move on to the real FA's -pollard, reed, freeney, talib. More money for the D. Psyched to see what they do.

[JerodMayo51]

Well the Broncos have been blatant about going for a SB at all costs, they aren't thinking about the future at all they just want to win now with Manning. This one hurts, I wanted him to go to an NFC team or a team like Houston. Broncos easily have the best receiving corpse in the entire league now, its not even close. If their defense plays as well as it did last year, they'll be favorites to win the Super Bowl.

[Fx Stryker]

Also looks like Amendola is going back to the Rams.

 

Oh boy.

[James]

Only a two year deal too. Patriots must've not wanted him at all.

 

Wow, that's perfect for the Broncos. When Welker's contract is up, they'll have to sign Miller and Thomas. Could have been a problem if it was a longer deal for Welker.

[Nobody]

Calling it. Peyton wins MVP, SB, and SB MVP.

I agree. But niners and hawks are favorite for SB...

It's not close? Atlanta?

[CR91]

am i the only one that doesnt see how this a great move? hes a 32 year old slot wr.

[amfootball]

Two years/12mil. Pats were offering two years at 16 mil last year for him. Too bad for Wes.

I don't get the deal with win later? Worry about the future when it gets here. Do all you can to win next season.

Wes Welker, WR, Patriots. Age: 32.  

Signed with Broncos 

Wes Welker produces like crazy fantasy numbers, but he's also one of the league's most overrated players. There's a reason why the Patriots wouldn't show him the money. He drops lots of passes and is arguably a product of the system. He's also about to enter his mid-30s. Still, he's a highly effective slot receiver

Interesting stuff.  I mean there is a reason they were phasing him out last year. I think he will do fine in Denver. he won't get 100 catches but will do well.

[bayone]

am i the only one that doesnt see how this a great move? hes a 32 year old slot wr.

 

depends if he catches , if does its a good move but not at DOOMS expense, hes still up in the air

[chad72]

Calling it. Peyton wins MVP, SB, and SB MVP.

 

Fat chance.

 

Arian Foster or Ray Rice are going to win MVP this year, just wait and see.

 

Peyton might win SB though, that might be all he cares right now.

agree & I am sure thgeres a plan B, I once posted amendola will be targeted by pats ,

 

wont be 100 , Ball will be spread , stil need RB & Doom to sign

 

Actually Steve Jackson for 2 years may have made more sense

[CR91]

i just dont get it. people are already crowning the broncos champs and i dont know why

[Vance]

Wow. Perfect fit for Peyton. Thomas, Decker and Welker? How do you stop that? 

 

 

That is epic

[amfootball]

i just dont get it. people are already crowning the broncos champs and i dont know why

Yeah, offense was not the issue. It is the D.

[bayone]

i just dont get it. people are already crowning the broncos champs and i dont know why

 

agree

 

U still need a Defense, a RB , Doom aint signed and still far apart , CB, MID , pass rushing DT to compliment DL etc for a complete team

 

Great offense & no D is why Colts lost in playoffs, Thats not the image u want

 

Anyway I have to go, have a good night

[Dustin]

i just dont get it. people are already crowning the broncos champs and i dont know why

 

Great defense, great receiving core, great O-line, great QB, great special teams, ect.

[amfootball]

Schefter has reported that the Pats were talking with Amendola during the three day tampering period....I hope they don't sign him.

[CR91]

Great defense, great receiving core, great O-line, great QB, great special teams, ect.

 

great defense? you might want to go back and watch the playoffs. and how long you think peyton can be peyton. his arm is getting weaker.

[amfootball]

I would actually favor the Colts over the Broncos at this point....

[BrentMc11]

Elway must have been upset he did not get Executive of the year with is ONE big signing last year....going for it this time 

 

i love PM...but my drawback is my dislike for the man with the horsey face.....never liked him!! 

 

[Dustin]

great defense? you might want to go back and watch the playoffs. and how long you think peyton can be peyton. his arm is getting weaker.

 

Tom Brady threw 1 TD and 2 INTs in the AFC Championship. Guess that makes him a terrible QB?

what does that have to do with peyton? go back and watch and you'll see there was zero zip on the ball and he threw a number of ducks.

[Dustin]

It has nothing to do with Peyton. It has to do you with you judging the quality of the defense off of one game.

 

And Peyton's arm looked fine to me. He's always throws ducks like that. Almost all of his passes are wobbly. I don't remember seeing one underthrow.

[Qwiz]

If you want to crown them, crown them!!! But you play to win the game. No but seriously, not expecting them to win it all.

[SilentHill]

Yeah, offense was not the issue. It is the D.

 

Hello, Peyton Manning teams don't need defense, haven't you learned anything from Bill Polian?

[BrentMc11]

If you want to crown them, crown them!!! But you play to win the game. No but seriously, not expecting them to win it all.

Lots to be done before the crowning Quiz.....many things can happen...and there is a team in SF with just way to many draft picks to go with the talent they have....and dare I say it....the Zone Read offense is not figured out as yet....

[CR91]

not that many ducks. its obviously peyton struggled to throw in the cold. the ball came out like 9 year old girl threw it. no offense peyton .
