At least one person in the Tom Brady camp is not a happy camper about Brady losing his favorite wide receiver.
Just minutes after the Broncos confirmed that they reached a two-year deal with former Patriots wide receiver Wes Welker, Tom E. Curran of CSNNE.com spoke to a source close to Brady who was “beyond enraged.”
The words “disgrace” and “disservice” were also used to describe the reaction to the fact that the Patriots wouldn’t even offer Welker enough money to keep him from signing a two-year, $12 million contract with the Broncos.
UPDATE 5:45 p.m. ET: We had initially interpreted Curran’s report as saying Brady himself was “enraged” about Welker leaving. Curran hasn’t heard what Brady’s frame of mind is but has heard from a person close to Brady who is “enraged.”
Spoke to someone close to Tom Brady. Beyond enraged at contract details that netted Broncos Wes Welker. "Disgrace" "disservice" were used.

The enraged party in my previous tweet was someone close to Brady. Not Brady himself. Got no idea how he feels. But I bet I could guess.
