Latest Wes Welker news

Everybody's waiting on Wes Welker to see exactly what's going on here and there have been reports for the last week out of Boston that he was expected to be back in New England. But the fact of the matter is. If there was a big offer on the table at the outset of free agency he would have taken that I don't think anybody really knows exactly what's going on. With Wes Welker at this point in time. This could offer just a little bit of time for one thing -- -- because as soon -- to the idea of being back in knowingly. I don't think any of his actions. Our sucks that you say he's a sure thing. To be back in New England I think he's gonna go out -- -- -- -- talk to teams easier season team out there that's willing to pay imminent there's a team willing to pay him. I think he's willing to leave New England despite what all the reports have been in the Boston area. -- show after earlier today out ESPN it's Butler not a 37 WEEI your football calls on.

Then the wind would patriots and he can say Baltimore lost the kind of talent if it's able to more you know what they're doing tonight no matter what happens the gonna double the Super Bowl trophy. -- just won a month ago. So if they're missed but they just they'd be won a super boy you want us -- balls and so for. And the three of Europe to free agents -- top fifteen on everybody's list Peter King Gregg Rosenthal pro football focus Ballmer Welker to leave. Top fifteen listed free agents across the league. The expectation was. If there is good as advertise your tier one guy here a guy is -- instance outlay on ESPN both guys get scooped up early. Your patriots and the fact that those three guys are unsigned by your team ranked team. Actually good news today. If your -- -- your great -- I actually do agree. I'm not surprised that the lead that's anywhere yet because the entire corner market. Hasn't brilliant started gradually been a couple of guys and even in that group we secrecy and just went. Five year -- a couple of the guys there was a Romero is a fake tweet right the grunts go back to Atlanta to me off. But apparently not so he's still out there that's edible. You know Sebastian Vollmer -- -- nfl.com with Mike Wallace signing Sebastian Vollmer is the number one. Free agent available with a quarter topping 85 the Sebastien. Over the plate for the patriots yes are there difference of national peace number one they're great one to 85 offensive tackles no players. Play errors -- -- nfl.com. Top 85 Wallace was one Vollmer was too. So you know the fact he wasn't signed the Wes Welker thing to me is you know. I don't know it sounds like this is not the the exclusive. Rights period right you can exclusively talked to decline in nobody else that a player nobody else can talk to -- -- is wide open free agency. So if you don't like the patriots offer. India India like the other team's offer. Why haven't -- -- there area. Number one maybe there is another offer. Write a number Calvin I don't wanna leave at that and you trying to tell you -- I don't care what the other offers are. Straighten this thing -- New England I want to stay here. Because it's it's August it's wide open market right now to do whatever the hell you want all -- it was trades done whatever the continued talk and everything else. If we don't literally opportunity continue to talk we recently soups and as we want but apparently nobody has. Well not only that. You know. Again how much of -- stuff do you believe I thought yesterday the way it went down was interest and we had on the show. They're broke -- around noontime yesterday that the patriots accordion Rappaport and deny that offer well operate contract which no matter what you deal lot of techsters -- Like the business of majors. Experiencing an album moron and that. It's a way of negotiating on the exclusive negotiation period the fact there was 17 ultimate offer. Back managed it took me there -- get it I still don't get it -- took care -- -- stuff. Following that Karen Regan was tweeting out during the day in and followed up with Welker three to -- Saying that no sides. Sides talked yesterday as it's stands. Is this not in a happy place. -- gory yen puts the Welker -- discussions that. She writes this morning that means the much anticipated long term contract between the team and its heart and -- receiver isn't anywhere near close to happening. By the open -- NFL free agency the sides -- miles apart so they have moved on aaron's words not mine. That doesn't mean they still can't come together and eventually work out a deal but the fact the discussions have broken off less than an hour after free agency opened. Doesn't leave the most optimistic picture and cast a Pall over the proceedings. Going forward. Now. I did a lot of cases. Unity of the agents -- spew these lines of here's where we are well let me just it doesn't work OK because -- Erica said things happened. -- The ravens. Apparently. Have just released Bernard Pollard. Now we want the patriots will insanity Bernard Pollard tight. Right -- hard hit safety. Wanted to sign Bernard Pollard. Why why let him go out there and hurt all of your players. Right. Why not just call and sign the guy this on Bernard Pollard. Twitter account crush boy 31 while raven nation its been fun. My time in Baltimore is done thank you. That's from crush boy 31. What was search for a Bernard Pollard type party in cigarettes costs and it got so we aren't but you what is the good news -- the ravens. By releasing Pollard and -- not Kruger and -- And -- If you can still keep agreed. So that's the good news Baltimore Ravens you're the Bernard Pollard released. You -- you're hunting he was doing roster bonus fourth in the league year same as -- million dollar roster bonus for Jacoby Jones -- only half million dollars to you art. You're advocating a Boston radio at 10:30 in the morning before people really that -- to their breakfast. That the patriots go after the guy went into Brady year just knocked Rocco playoff -- -- -- percent. Was on the field for the Welker injured -- it was huge factor with the one on the season or -- they're smoking gun there. Was just those three note was it when it destroyed in the any buried -- upgrade your advocate he's not a highly. You know a big signal FM in Boston. Patriots men of Kraft -- sign that guy he's like Rodney Harrison Ford came here did -- of people. On a big big money here I'm just saying out loud so likens him following. I agree with the good the day after the Super Bowl what that I say you have Bernard Pollard type now Bernard pollard's available. That's why good karma to to finally bring it home it's almost. It's poetic justice. But he comes and joins the patriots as the hardening CP unit secondary well ya so that that system. We'll keep an eye on that on people I'm Pollard but. Guys that broke out I was reading the Wes Welker stuff yeah Marguerite you today that it did it in the following the end of it that jumps out at me was. Their miles apart the sides have moved on. And is not optimistic picture of the -- -- the. Proceedings. Going full Iran imports three yesterday right that this still waiting for what he's that he was corrected distilling for the first offer. Mike Reese came out later on Dini has -- bosses didn't know he does have an offer in front of him. So we look at between you think an agent right from me in -- maybe DH and say yeah. This is the only way for good off -- for the first Africa's maybe -- count the first offer is that like agent talk right. The offering was so pork buried consider that a first offer complete global complete global. You know it's an offer so that might yardage today Comcast sports net. Tweets out all Welker source close the situation told me that great deal of attention during the legal tampering period. That impacted the negotiations. Now on Welker as noted by Tommy -- that one team that won offer. Has happened yet big money deals usually happen early in free agency actually -- -- Again on two things either worked so knowing that I wanna stay mr. agent when you're putting the teams. Or the other offers to start there and patriots to bring in this guy back. On that original crappy offer. -- Well it's it's a weird spot to be in because unity that. Applicable side of the patriots is no benefit to give in the big offer now if your plan for the team perspective. Yes the question a couple of minutes ago if there if that offer was out there what do you signs somewhere -- -- at least had taken aback that the patriots. That's what it feels like to me. Are you surprised. That he was not more sought after day one if you believe the agent and believe the -- today. A guy with a 110 catches five times in his career. You know that in the second place and in NFL history is guy's got two seasons especially said he was -- sought after the free agent period we over rate was well closed machinery gets a movement there you know Harvard and you know is out in Seattle -- -- -- and -- Saint Francis and teams to sell in a wide receiver position Miami signs wall is pretty much who's left Jennings. Right in Welker. But I just thought with with Wallace signing -- Minnesota is out on him maybe they -- it's estimated there were maybe they go after Jennings. But it eagle after Welker -- domino effect that it really didn't happen as quickly as you might think. The relic and now I mean you've you've got Greg Jennings and Wes Welker. Of the net. You know you had a good Donna played -- Danny Amendola the next -- straight to wide receiver out there though it's. You know make an interest that obviously a -- Victor Cruz restricted but every difficult to do. The other part of this is the the Ron Borges column today inside page 54 Boston Herald where -- spent a lot of time. You know -- and dolphin mask after what they did yes which is why spend now and you got some good players respect that. He gets the end of -- depict add on to Karen's point that Wes Welker is off the reservation. And -- a whisper as he finally realized yesterday that patriots don't really want him back. After their first offer came in all probably well. According to some familiar with with that. Now welcome looks for the lead with the understanding that the -- what the owner says the patriots really liked him really really liked him. Would have already signed him. Is perhaps the well -- -- and Welker comes back the patriots price with a pill between its legs. Maybe so does chewing Andelman maybe settlement gets a rocket -- of Foxborough and -- -- Which Danny Amendola what is the line of the morning Friday and -- settlement fans. But look it's about the writings on the wall here whether or not true. The agent believes it to be true that they got a crappy offer from well the patriots. That there's not a huge market for. And that you've got to. Yet to create some sort of break off here you know Adam Vinatieri talk -- -- -- Jack McMullen a couple years ago everyone jurists assumed admitted terrorist and re silent the -- that hurt. That it -- free agency is always gonna go back. So is this Welker negotiating publicly by saying well talks are so bad we are -- and other teams. Actually called Welker and believe that he's available and start to get negotiation process and I think that is an absolute. I've found possibility here if -- as well. There's agent I am I'm leak it a few things today article prop -- this game there. As it is not good on his case is not it's not good for Wes Welker that there isn't anything. Anything there hasn't even been a rumor. During that during a period. Right even even the tea drinkers. And and 24 hours into not quite yet but still. Christina Betty rumor about Wes Welker going to another city not it's not even a rumor Josh Cribbs has Josh Cribbs as rumors -- -- doesn't -- Walker's agent. Some will be -- it was well within the next hour. That's what I feel and Beckham but I -- real -- I just -- -- is wise team that is trouble covering in -- in the defensive backfield need to Gallic -- -- not at safety. Right and you got to -- according type in that free safety technical round of cover from silent silo got three of those near forty Wilson -- -- -- Gregory recorded definitely Wilson was shooting becomes clear out agree.
