    Moments after Wes Welker agreed a two-year deal with the Denver Broncos, a report surfaced from CSNNE.com's Tom Curran that Tom Brady was enraged the New England Patriots let his favorite target get away.

    Curran spoke to a source close to Brady who said the words "disgrace" and "disservice" were used to describe Brady's feelings. Brady was under the impression that restructuring his contract a few weeks ago would help the Patriots retain Welker.

    Welker agreed to a two-year, $12-million deal with the Broncos on Wednesday afternoon. Welker reportedly contacted the Patriots to see if the team would match the offer and apparently the Patriots were not interested.

    He will clear this up with one of those "that's the business" speeches.

    Was that his reaction or his wife's?

    Cletusaurus YES! YES! YES!

    So this whole story is based on a wrong-worded tweet. The "enraged" party is actually the source, not Brady. Brady's true feelings probably aren't far from that though.

    Brady's got to be somewhat pissed that he took a favorable contract for the Pats and all the wide receiving talent that was out there is going to other teams at a rapid pace. With Jennings left and dealing with the Packers right now leaves Brady with the possibility of Gibson and/or Amendola...a far cry from Wes Welker...

    He's gotta be hoping for some roster cuts...
