Not The Best Deal

After five games, it's hard to say that signing Danny Amendola over Wes Welker was a better move for the Pats. Both are Texas Tech products with similar playing skills. Amendola was suppose to be the younger and faster version of Welker. We were lead to believe that this was the better signing for the long term.

So far, everything is in Welker's favor. Even his team is 5-0 under Peyton Manning who is on a torrid pace to set all types of passing records this season.

Welker has seven TD's this season which equals the total for Amendola in his 44 career games. He also has the same amount of TD's for all receivers on the Pats combined.

Although he will never admit to it, there had to be a personality conflict with Welker for Coach Belichick not to re-sign him. The guy is such a great player.
