The Seahawks held the Patriots up with this deal. A fourth round choice was too much to give up for the 2010 version of Deion Branch. The only way this makes sense is if the Pat's don't have to take the majority of his contract.
Exactly what role is Branch going to fill for the Patriots?
Branch = Welker? Just older.....
will Welker give up his 83? Oh the drama for the ink stained wretches...
Sorry, but I think that's a bit silly. We've drafted 24 players in the last 2 years (I believe). If there's a receiver who isn't in a wheelchair he's worth a 4th round pick to a team needing a veteran receiver.
I don't mean to pile on you, but it's just a general pet peeve of mine. Draft picks aren't money, they are only worth what you can get with them. We have double picks in the high part of next year. We'll end up cutting good young players, plus probably trading into the future. The incremental value of a 4th round pick in our current situation is negligible.
I hate rewarding a traitor like him, but we are draft pick wealthy and veteran shy.
I interned at Hallmark. Not really. But you witnessed the skillz.
Thank you for a bit of reality.
The armchair GMs on this forum are nothing if not comic relief.

Am I missing something? Not to be too pessimistic, but what's with all the excitement? All I have ever seen from Branch since he left was an oft-injured, marginal player. I know he played well when he was here, but will that be how it plays out the second time around?
I could take this trade or leave it.
BUT, to say a 4th is too much is silly.
Especially when we have 2 1's, 2 2nd's, and 2 3rd's.
Seriously.
