Here is a recap of what transpired regarding Welker's move to New England. If his agent was shopping him around, he did it very clandestinely so as to not even be mentioned. He didn't even get Welker a very good deal. Welker needs a new agent.

On March 1, 2007, the Dolphins offered Welker, a restricted free agent, a second-round tender (the second-lowest tender) of $1.35 million for a one-year contract. The Patriots, who were interested in Welker, had originally considered signing Welker, a restricted free agent, to an offer sheet which Miami would have had seven days to match; according to The Boston Globe, that sheet would have contained a poison pill provision which would have made the offer difficult for the Dolphins to match.[6] Ultimately, however, the Patriots decided not to use such an offer, and traded the Dolphins their 2007 second- and seventh-round draft picks for Welker.

Welker wasn't worth a "good deal" at the time. He was small time and wanted out of Miami, the Patriots got him at a bargain. Moss was also a relative bargain because of his history.

But thanks for making my point. It's also proof-positive (be it Welker, Moss or Brady for that matter) that the 1st round draft choice penalty for cheating leveled against the Pats was a joke.
