Can't hurt to add a guy like Welker. He has to be a good friend with Jimmy, right? The two must have worked together extensively. So when Wes is talking to young guys like Taylor and Pettis, he can tell them: "On this route, this is what Jimmy is going to look for, so adjust this way".

I wonder what the future holds for a guy like Welker in coaching. I feel like Belichik's coaching tree will end up being better through his former players than it will through his former coaches. Belichik is a smart and detailed guy who loves players who can think on their feet. So, someone like Welker or Mike Vrabel who can play the game in a very cerebral way and soak up information and details because great weapons, and turn out to be good at coaching because of it. Can't wait to see Pettis next year. Year 2, learning from his mistakes, hopefully staying healthy, having a full offseason of reps. We might not even need to add an Antonio Brown to be explosive. An improved Pettis, with a superhuman Kittle, that's already a good start. Add McKinnon and Juice, Goodwin's speed (if we could just take more deep shots), and that's a lot of options opponents will have to defend. 

Welker and Jimmy were never on the same team. Jimmy was drafted in 2014, Welker's last year in NE was 2012.
