SUMMARY
Wide Receiver Rank: #11   
Overall: #46


Welker had his second straight season with 100 receptions. He didn't feel the loss of Tom Brady too much, continuing to serve as a top possession receiver for the Patriots. The return of Brady won't hurt Welker's numbers, though. In two seasons with the Patriots, Welker averaged 112 receptions for 1,170 yards and six touchdowns. His numbers were eerily similar the last two seasons. He'll continue to serve as the Patriots top possession receiver this season. Welker is a small, speedy receiver with plus hands. He also can make plays after the catch, which is a plus in the Patriots offense.
FANTASY OUTLOOK
Welker is a machine in PPR leagues. Outside of that format, Welker is more of a No. 2 fantasy receiver because of his lack of touchdowns. He is about a shoe-in for 1,000 yards and seven or so scores.
The Associated Press reports New England Patriots WR Wes Welker caught 10 passes for 107 yards with a touchdown reception Week 7.
Fantasy Impact: Welker is having a huge season now that he is healthy.
