Plus why would the pats want ANOTHER pass rusher, they like Chandler jones, do they not? And they drafted Hightower to be an edge rusher on 3rd downs...ok so they don't really have pass rushers, but still, dwight is moving from a 4-3 to a 3-4...or will the pats stay at a 4-3? Well if he stays in a 3-4, he's out of place and its a possible wasted draft. Both Freeney and Welker are great players and both are about the same edge, maybe a 2 year difference, so again, why the 3rd?

I wouldn't call Welker a deep threat speedster
