Tag likely for Wes Welker

[East]

The New England Patriots are likely to place their franchise tag on wide receiver Wes Welker, according to a league source.

The two sides have been discussing a new deal, but if one cannot be reached, New England plans to use the $9.5 million franchise wide receiver tag.

He'll more than likely be in New England even if they don't tag him

Yeah don't see any other outcome.

This guy is perfect for the Pats.
