Really, how so?
Welker may be a different body type, but the routes ran and the area worked is the same. And the production is near identical.
His 6 years in NE.

10 tgts per game, 7 catches, 80yds, 11yds per catch.
And keyshawn i think is a near perfect twin. Get the catch maybe a few extra yards, occasionally have some extra space for more YAC. Hell even his career trajectory might be the same, 4 years and get kicked out.
