From reports this morning, both teams are trying to come to agreement with the Pats regarding compensation.

Per who?????

Im not surprised with either but i doubt anyone gives up a first.

The more teams the better . . . we need something out of Branch, either the player or appropriate compensation.

doubt we do anything with Jets

BelichickFan

Especially bad (jets) and mediocre (vikings) teams but between picks this year, next year and/or players we could get first round value without actually getting a first round pick.

IMO the jets are so bad we could trade Branch there without too much worry.

Minnesota was the team I thought Branch would end up with. Makes sense from their perspective.

Why not? That wont be much of a threat for another 3 years or so.

I hope it's the Jets because we would get a higher pick from them.

The Jets are rebuilding, and I really doubt they'll be ready to compete before Branch's prime is done, so I have no clue why they want to pony up $$ and take cap space away from younger players, and give up a draft pick for Branch. The only reason I can think of is to attract fans, but even that seems weird, but if we can squeeze an unconditional first, or even swap place in the first round, we'll come out big winners, as either Paul Polunzky, or Calvin Johnson will be Patriots come this time next year.
