Wes Welker isn't on Pepsi commercials and he was an undrafted free agent coming out of college.

Reggie Bush may very well be the most hyped prospect of all time.

But in his latest column, NFL.com's Adam Schefter says Dolphins wide receiver Wes Welker should get just as much attention as Bush.

Welker and Bush's receiving, total yards and punt return stats are very comparable.

Here's the write-up:

People are probably going to think that Schefter has gone off the deep end with this one, but take a closer look at what the two players mean to their respective teams. Take a look at the stats. Welker has been far and away the MVP of the Dolphins so far in 2006.

The only question is, could Wes Welker beat that Pepsi machine in the 40-yard dash?
