Does anyone think Deion Branch is worth picking up out of free  agency. I heard a report that he might play in the opener against Buffalo.

Thanks for any information you can give me.

I don't really know. I haven't heard anything about that. Last report I read on Engram and Branch(Thurs. or Fri.), one would probably miss 8 weeks and the other 6. Unless you receivers are really bad, I wouldn't take the chance.

The only thing I've heard is that the Seahawks decided to not put Branch on the PUP list - which reads to me like he might be progressing faster than originally thought.  When he finally suits up and plays is anyone's guess, but I think by week 3 or 4 you'll see his name pop up.

do you think he'll be any good when he does return? Is he worth me adding?

We know what Branch can do when healthy, but adding him depends on who you have available to drop.  What options do you have?

I was just  gonna add him and drop brandon jackson. I was also thinking about adding Hightower or Devin Hester.

I only have 4 WRs and we start 3. I have Reggie Wayne, Brandon Marshall, Calvin Johnson and Lee Evans.

If you own Grant, hold on to Jackson, otherwise that's not a terrible move.  Consider waiting to make a move until you hear Branch is close - he will bascially be a wasted spot until he returns and likely won't start for you anyway with the depth you have.

I was thinking of picking Branch up as well.  I would have to drop one of my bench wrs (Porter,B Johnson,or Hackett{i have s simith}).  So far i've been talking myself out of dropping one of these guys. Last year I started my season with both Marshall and Jennings on my roster and got rid of both before week 1Yell, hince me  now being afraid to make a move.
