Welker did not lead the league in drops. That was Jimmy Graham. Calvin Johnson had more drops than Welker.

The move makes no sense now that they've brought in Amendola. Welker would have continued catching ~100 per year for the next few years while the window is still there. His stats showed no significant downward trend. Why get rid of a proven commodity who has great chemistry with your QB for an unproven, more expensive, injury prone option?
