Should the Patriots take the gamble to trade Welker for Percy Harvin?

-make a move for a younger, more athletic player or stay with Welker?

ESPN reports about Harvin wanting to leave the Minnesota Vikings.

Poll Friday: Wes Welker or Percy Harvin? - AFC East Blog - ESPN



Harvin: 24 year old slot receiver, one of the best athletes in the league.

history of issues with two different coaches. health issues with
migraines.

A high risk, high reward player.

Welker: -lost his franchise tag with the Patriots.

31 years old slot receiver.
-very productive seasons with New England.

However, Welker has dropped passes in critical moments of the Patriots playoff run this season and last season. The dropped pass during the AFC championship game against the Ravens is a pass that comes to mind. Another dropped pass, in last year's Superbowl against the Giants, also by Welker.

I'm a Patriots fan. Welker has played well under Belichek's system. I think it's time for New England to go for a younger, more explosive athlete in Harvin. As for the character issues with Harvin, can the coach help this dude become a mature, responsible guy?
