Interesting stuff on McDaniels and the future of the Patriots offense. Sign me up for option A.
The Patriots can go three directions with the passing offense:
■ Retain Welker, add the outside X threat (probably in the draft), and move Welker to the outside Z position.
■ Retain Welker and keep him in the slot to work a high-low game in the middle with Rob Gronkowski, make Aaron Hernandez the X, and sign (Danny Amendola and Edelman) or trade (Percy Harvin) for the Z.
■ Move on from Welker, find a big-time X, fill the Z with a terrific athlete with the ball in his hands in a short area, and let Hernandez and Gronkowski rule the middle.
