Deion Branch for a 3nd rounder?

[PackerPro42]

They actually want two First rounders for him.

I wouldn't call Branch a #2. He was their big play guy. He made the big catches when they needed him and he led the team in receiving. Not to mention he use to be a good return man.

[Brando19]

I think we should definitely try to get Branch.

[gbpackfan]

The more I think about, the more I want Branch on this team. Give up a 2nd rounder for him, he is young and talented! Def. worth it. I highly doubt that ANYONE would give up a 1st for him. So if the Patriots are unwilling to move off that demand, then there is nothing TT can do.

[Green Bud Packer]

brett definitely needs help and branch would fit the bill. the price may be to high.

If you go to foxsports.com and visit today's rumor page, they seem to think Ted Thompson should quickly make a push for Branch.

Since when does TT do what anybody at foxsports (or any of the other news sites) thinks he should?

What should Ted do MJ, regarding the possibility of us improving OUR Offense... now?

[Green Bud Packer]

i know i'm not m.j.(though i smoke plenty of it,) wood-man.ted should be inquiring about branch.the only other thing to do is grab some stop-gap vet off of waivers.but please get brett some help.

I'd say:

That is a logical response Green Bud Packer.

Does TT = Logical ?

GO Packers ! Packer Fan Faith in 2006 !!

I would trade our first for Logan Mankins, Branch and Seymour. Thompson might do it for even Branch and Mankins.

It's not my place to tell him what to do, it's his place to know what he wants and work it out.

I hope the bears don't make a move on any available receivers before Sept 10. Rumor has it they are interested, but don't like the asking price:

• Chicago has interest in Patriots WR Deion Branch but isn't willing to part with a high draft pick. Branch, a refined route runner with a flair for the dramatic, was given permission to seek a trade as negotiations remain stalled on a long-term extension. Bears observers believe Branch, if acquired, would quickly become the No. 1 receiver and a reliable target for QB Rex Grossman.
