The Facts:
Branch, the 27-year-old former second round draft choice from Louisville and Super Bowl XXXIX MVP for the Patriots, expects to make a more consistent and dominant impact after being moved to flanker from split end last season.
Reported by Seahawks.com
Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
The Seahawks moved Branch to flanker because it means he's usually a yard-and-a-half off the line of scrimmage and it gives him more room to utilize his quickness coming off the ball without getting jammed. ... Branch is excited about having a full offseason with the team as opposed to coming in a trade from New England after the 2006 NFL season had already begun. It limited him to 13 starts, but he still managed to haul in 53 passes for 725 yards as he learned on the fly. Branch and the Seahawks are obviously expecting more this year.
