Actually, they got a 2nd rounder AND 7th round selection for Welker from the Pats.

At the time of the trade, Miami made out like a bandit.
Look at his numbers in Miami the two years.
2005-----29 recs 434yards
2006-----67recs 687 yards
Getting a 2nd and 7th rounder for a guy that only produced those kinds of stats is a work of genius really. Especially for a undrafted free agent.
