Default Alan Branch??

Scout.com has him listed at #24. At 6' 6" , 324lbs Branch would be another real NT. at the only position on D that we are thin(lol). As mentioned in the Carricker thread, we also were awkward when Warren was out, moving Sey to LDE. With Branch available, Vince could also fill in at LDE as he did in his rookie season. And the 4-3 could go to a beefy Warren, Branch, Wilfork, Sey or plug in Green for pass rush.

I think that I'd rather have Paul Solai in the 4th round than Alan Branch in the 1st.

I'd be shocked if he fell, and I don't think we'd trade up for him if he came close, but I have no doubt that he's be a Patriot if he lasted to #24.

No kidding, 344 lb. wedge busters are a rare and special talent.

Branch doesn't really fill a need.

But he does give us this:
