Deon Branch

Just saw the Pats gave him permission to seek a trade!
Out in Oakland we have Jerry Porter (better than Branch in my opinion)
who is unhappy.
Maybe we should make a swap !!!

LETS GO BRANDON

Branch is under contract, I guess that means jack
If I was Kraft I would give him 48 hours to get in camp or he would go on the uneligible list,this has gone on to long he is hurting the team

There's a lot to be said for the Pats holding firm and staying strong. Of course they have not lost any games that count yet. So they hold the upper hand for now. Frig him. If he doesn't want to be here, let him shop himself around.

i think his value is greatest to the patriots, they made him a good offer 12 million guarranteed $$ over 3 yrs. he thinks he's worth 7-8 millin per season. he'll be back soon.

Branch should quit his whining and play out his contract. He's gonna get his big payday next year, whether with the Pats or someone else.

Branch is great ,,He's working with one of the all time greatest quarter backs ever . Nobody sees the field like Brady , You think that might have a little to do with the sucess of Branch ? What about the coaching staff and schemes and team they have put together. This new running back is only going to open up the passing game even more .. Branch !!!! ,, don't be a dumb arse... count your blessings and go to work .. You don't want to be anywhere eles .

NFL stands for "not for long" so you cant blame him for holding out to get more money while he thinks he can. Would you be happy if you were lower paid than your worth? If you could afford to, would you quit your job if that were the case.

But if you're overpaid they can cut yerazz quickly.

Let's see what the rest of the league may be willing to give up for Branch. He may have over valued himself.
