According to ESPN’s Adam Schefter, impending free agent Rams WR Danny Amendola could be an option for the New England Patriots if they’re unable to reach an agreement with Wes Welker.
Schefter adds that “Amendola is a poor man’s, younger, cheaper Welker” and that “it would not be surprising in the least if the Patriots made a run at Amendola” if talks with Welker breakdown.
Amendola, 27, was very solid for the Rams this season, but injuries forced him to miss 5 games. He could end up being a great signing for someone and I’m sure the Rams would love to him back, but previous reports have said that there’s a good chance that they won’t use their franchise tag on him.
We currently have Amendola as the No. 21 best available player in our Top 50 Free Agents List.
