Rams sign Wes Welker

[wolfdogg]

Definitely different context than I thought on harrison. Would like to know the whole story about why fisher was laughing. Could be unrelated to him being hurt or just something someone said. I mean, how does Rodney know what he was saying from across the field?

This is reminiscent of grabbing Brandon Lloyd.

We have an extra second round pick.

But how do we know that's all it would take? It's kinda hard to say what should have been done when we aren't privy to info within the organization.

Man, if Welker gives them the kind of shot Brandon Lloyd did that year, this offense can play well enough to make them a true playoff contender.

He wasn't available for trade.

You know this for a fact? Did I miss the article?

Wes Welker averaged a career worst 9.5 yards per catch his last year in Denver.
Ok. He was a first down machine. I would just let him put in two or three routes he likes and have Foles work with him on those. If he adds a couple of third down conversions a game it could be worth it. No risk signing really.
I like the effort to bring him in.
I just hope he doesn't get injured again.
Getting a consistent underneath threat, even if it is not big plays, may help open up other things.

I just hope he still has his Pats playbook. Might give Vignetting some ideas.

I meant. Cignetti .....I hate auto correct...and for some reason I can't edit the post.

There was an article saying the Bears weren't looking to deal Alshon. I can't find it now. I think it was Jason Cole.

Guess I missed it. I just remember the numerous articles that were listing him as a trade candidate.

Good thing Fisher decided that Amendola was not worth signing.

 

[fearsomefour]

Givens traded, Bailey suspended (per Fisher, last chance coming up), Britt drawing a decent salary, Quick has disappeared and is a FA after the season. I could see Britt going seeing as he would save about $4M under the cap. Would be strange heading into FA with Austin, Welker and Marquez in the fold and the others gone. Recreating the mighty midgets or whatever they were called with the Redskins.

Let's try not to use "hurt" when discussing WW.. he might get concussed reading it

Lmao.
I should have thought before I posted.

 

[Boston Ram]

It's worth a shot. Always like his game. Hope there is still something left in the tank.

 

[blue4]

I like it. As someone else said way earlier in the thread, I just want to see Austin and Gurley back out of the skill players next year. The rest are JAGS. They're mostly FAs anyway IIRC.

 

[fancents86]

No I mean the feeling of actually grabbing someone of that caliber on our team. Welker hasn't played yet so my feelings can't get that deep yet (and I hope it never does). Lol

 

[Dagonet]

Head coach Jeff Fisher announces the team has signed wide receiver Wes Welker, suspended wide receiver Stedman Bailey and talked about ways the team needs to improve.

Thanks for posting. Hadn't seen it yet.

LOL and now they decide to sign the guy he replaced in New England? SMH
