It's easy, and only takes a few moments.I care far more about WHY Deion Branch didn;t do well in Seattle: he got hurt a bunch of times, and can't run anymore. Do you really want to bring back an overpaid WR who can't run? honestly, at this point Brandon Spikes is probably faster than Branch.
What if Branch lacks the burst to separate from a CB with any consistency?
What if he's totally shut down by single coverage?
What if he doesn't create space for any other receivers?
What if Brady tears his other ACL next week?
I'll defer those questions to Mr. Ernie Adams.
Agreed. That said, I'd like to think Brady's concerns would be part of the process in deciding what is best for the team. Not that he is consulted in any way, but that how it will affect him is considered.

There's no way a player would get called on for tampering.
A phone call happens, oe guy says, "Man, I wish you were on our team!!" Other guy says, "Me too, I'd love to catch passes from you." Then, "You should make it happen, dude."
You're telling me that's impermissable.
Come on.

I recommend you watch Seattle, if he's still playing for them by this weekend. When he's in, he's shown the most quickness that I've seen out of him since the latter part of 2004. He's shown to be able to get space on a CB and haul in the ball. In fact, his numbers this season would be MUCH better if he saw more time than just situational work.
Of course Deion would tell Brady he loves the Patriots, bah bah bah...
He KNOWS that he WILL get cut by Seattle very very soon... He needs a sucker to pickup his $6m/yr salary..
What if Eleanor Roosevelt grew propellers on her breasts so she could lead bombing missions over Germany in WWII?

Have you seen a few Seattle games this year? I believe his ACL was in the 2007 playoffs it should be fully healed.
It's amazing the level of opinion on Branch and his condition. Is there several years of Seahawks gametape here at patsfans.com?

Yeah, I have. Those with a negative opinion on Branch's ability as of today should probably check where that negative opinion is coming from. My guess is it's coming from the year 2006.
I agree with this stance. However, if Brady absolutely threw a fit over the move upon hearing about it, I would have to think that there is pretty much a 100% chance that this move doesn't happen. One thing you have to give Bill is that he's an incredibly effective manager. To be that, you don't alienate your star assistant manager... which is what Brady is to him. If Brady was that upset about the move and it turned into a shouting match, I really can't see this move happening. At least not this year. IMO, they would have kept him through the season and cut him loose in the offseason.
