nmack29 Posted September 17, 2006 Share Posted September 17, 2006 Tough call here. I don't think Jordan will do much this year, and Benson seems to have upset the whole team again. Andre Johnson is one of those guys who should breakout, but we'll have to see. Branch has never been a great WR in the regular season - mostly due to the offense in NE. I would probably make the trade - it gives you a guaranteed starter in Jordan and the WR are a wash as of now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Medal of Honor Posted September 17, 2006 Share Posted September 17, 2006 Don't do it. It may seem like you should at first, but let's look at it. You want nothing to do with any Raiders this year. They are just going to collapse, and that's Randy Moss too. Plus Jordan isn't an exceptionally strong back. They are in a tough division with Den, KC, and SDC. Just a messy back to have. I have written the same thoughts about Branch a lot this week. I just traded him away. He joins a very cluttered, and complicated, offense where Jackson is the favorite. Even if Jackson's knee goes out (which I doubt), Branch is still sharing looks with 2 other qualified recievers that have been part of that team longer than he has. He most definitely will be thrown to (possibly even this week) but you just can't expect a big performance from him. Did you know? Branch has never had a 1,000 yard season. His closest is 998, and that is with Tom Brady throwing to him as a #1! He may be the Super Bowl MVP, and a good reciever, but avoid him in fantasy unless he is like your #3.
