Quote: jafabian said: Seahawks get Deion Branch from the Patriots for a 1st round pick. Seeing as how Seattle's pick would most likely be no better than 29th overall, based on their schedule, a good trade.
Be interesting to see how this plays out with WR Darrell Jackson. With the restructured contract that Branch got as well as free agent pick up Nate Burleson, Jackson is the 3rd highest paid WR on the team.
he also has had surgery on his left knee twice in less than a year.....he's good but he's one cut away from never playing again and I think he knows that. The Hawks getting Branch is a huge move. He scored 5 touchdowns last year and just missed 1000 yards....he will either equal or better those numbers.
