Figured I'd bump this with all the talk about the new look secondary in KC... should be a few nice battles this season between the teams.
Here's another nugget that I found regarding Welker and something to help counter the talk about "drops". Let the games begin! In the NFL world of pass happy and WR friendly rules ... bring on your multi-million dollar gaggle of new DBs.
This past season, 72 of Welker's 118 receptions went for first downs — a staggering 61 percent. Over the past three seasons, no receiver in the league had more yards after the catch than Welker — just more than 1,800 yards worth of work once he had the ball in his hands.
