    Deion Branch given a chance to get traded.

    Just heard it on ESPNradio. Should we consider pulling the trigger? He could defintely be a bonafide #1 or #2 for years to come IMO. Then we could easily cut underachievers like Reed, Davis, or even Price. I don't know what the Pats want, but I would consider giving a 2nd or a 3th and 5th next year. He could be our Lawyer Milloy of 03'. Just a thought. More of a TD move than Marv move but oh well.

    WR1: Evans, Price, Davis
    Wr2: Branch, Parrish, Aiken, Wilson

    no thanks, I'd rather keep Lee and give him the dough to be our #1 when it comes time to extend him - we already have the short/quick receiver thing locked down (but no one of branch's caliber obviously).

      Peerless was close to signing there so they might have interest, any wr beside Lee and a 3rd, that would be a huge compliment to JP and the offense, but i doubt NE would trade him here

        No way. He wants top 10 money and he aint a top 10 reciever.
        I remember that one fateful day when Coach took me aside. I knew what was coming. "You don't have to tell me," I said. "I'm off the team, aren't I?"
        "Well," said Coach, "you never were really ON the team. You made that uniform you're wearing out of rags and towels, and your helmet is a toy space helmet.
        You show up at practice and then either steal the ball and make us chase you to get it back, or you try to tackle people at inappropriate times."
        It was all
        true what he was saying. And yet, I thought something is brewing inside the head of this Coach.
        He sees something in me, some kind of raw talent that he can
        mold. But that's when I felt the handcuffs go on.

          Branch is over glorified due to the NE system. He leaves the Patriots and will do nothing, much like all the ex-Green Bay receivers that Favre made look good.

                Evans would love to have him here, it would take the heat off everybody and force the D to play back.

                        agreed man Davis was a great signing Reed deserves to stay Price has yet to prove himself but give him time this season

                          This is just part of the negotiation process. Rather than letting this drag into the season, Branch can go out and find his value.

                          It speeds up resolution. Instead of it dragging into the season, Deion will either be signed or traded by the season's start.

                          It is a smart move. Deion wants to stay, and this is a way to jump-start negotiations. He wants to remain a Patriot, and I bet he signs a long-term deal before the season.

                            If the guy can be happy with #2 than trade Reed or price for him. Evans is our #1 period!! I doubt the Bills are looking at this. We need DE's!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

                              JP needs proven targets, this is one of them.
