[@javierseguram1167]

That warning from The Hoodie to Wes Welker at 0:48 is epic. Wes never believed that this squirrel will be capable of sending him out... He became the next Wally Pipp.

[@yungforest6554]

Not really welker chose to leave in free agency

[@stephanea5364]

Belichick is a POS for saying that to one of the toughest players to play for him. Wes put his body on the line like crazy, playing slot and being small.

[@stevenqirkle]

Yeah I’m a little shocked the Pats put that in this video. Wes doesn’t deserve that.

[@Woozie87]

@@stevenqirkle Wes never won a super bowl and tbh I’m gonna say it, Edelman was better than Wes Welker... Edelman was like a old school football player, he could of played dB if he willed it so to running back to wide receiver to throwing some passes to Danny, he was a dream come true for Bill in the worlds of Tom “yeah!... gotta see my guy!”

[@stevenqirkle]

@@Woozie87 I love Edelman. But why do they have to show Belichick tearing Welker down in a tribute video to Edelman? Just a complete lack of class here, and very unlike the Patriots.

[@droptopp3479]

Alot of people think he isnt worthy of hall of fame but i rather take 3 superbowl champions than making it to hall of fame. Edelman will always be a hall of famer for me though. What a great hard working guy, hes done so much for the patriots until his wheels came off. Hope hes stays healthy and has a great retirement. Come thru to the Bucs in a yr or two

[@LASAGNA_LARRY]

Let’s ignore The Hall of Fame for a moment, and just acknowledge how unlikely he was to succeed. Julian Edelman was an undrafted Kent State quarterback-turned-receiver. He started his first few years as a kickoff/punt returner, averaging more yards per return than Tyreek Hill! He then transitioned to dedicated wide receiver when Wes Welker left and he even played defense in 2011 when the defensive starters were injured. Edelman was simply the toughest, most adaptable player I’ve ever seen. Imagine playing quarterback for the majority of your life (High School and College), but as soon as you barely make it into the NFL, they say “you’re too short, we’re just going to make you a kick returner”. Edelman took what he was given, and he gave it his all in return. If his adaptability wasn’t enough, he blossomed into arguably the greatest slot receiver ever in the playoffs, making clutch plays one after another. Unfortunately, he will not make the Hall of Fame due to his average regular season numbers, and he will probably be forgotten by most people in time. But Edelman will always be remembered by Patriots fans for his toughness, clutch playoff performance, and pure heart. Randy Moss was with us for only a few seasons, but Edelman was with us for his whole 12-year career. Edelman really is one of the greatest, if not the greatest Patriots wide receiver of all time.

[@jhucci]

Beautifully put.

[@nixhex12]

He wasn't undrafted

[@Otis151]

Gotta love this dude. So tough, so passionate, so productive. Sad to see him retire.
