Can someone explain to me the Deion Branch Love (1 Viewer)

He did have 4 TDs in 9 games last year...that projects to 7 TDs in a full season.When you factor in his playoff performance, then it's not a stretch...

 
You obviously have no clue what it means to be a 1100 yard 6-7 TD WR. He is well on pace to meet the FBGs projections on the year. The fact that you keep bumping this THINKING you are somehow correct is amusing and absurd all at once.Oh and :fishing:

I've been thrilled Branch has stayed healthy all season as I needed a career type of year from him. That being said I'm really let down by yesterday's effort versus the Jets. I started him over TJ and I'm in a precarious position for a loss. If I give up 5 points to Michale Lewis tonight I miss the playoffs. :hot:

He has never finished in the top 30 for a WR. FBG has him ranked #14 this week for WR. In addition he is ranked by FBG 25 for the season where he should get 74 catches and 1000 yards and 7 TDs ... he has 9 career TDs averaging 3 a year!!JAA
I think top 20 is definately in his sights as TO is next on the list. 74 catches and 1000 yards should be a given, the TDs will be a stretch.

More then enough output to push him past your boy TO. :popcorn:
excellent point. He will score a lot more points than someone suspended for 1/2 the season :thumbup:
Agreed...never did understand all the I :heart: TO. :P I think if you do a search you'll see where I recommend drafting Branch and then moving him after mid season. Of course you may have moved him for Galloway.

 
I don't get it either. Probably one of the most over-rated players in FF.

I guess a couple good games in his career makes him a superstar in people's eyes.
dont be an idiot this guy has been pretty consistant WHEN HEALTHY..Research next time before opening the man-pleaser.. :censored:

gonna be close ;)
 
Well I certainly have love for Deion. He went 4-69 on MNF and that was enough, by 2 points, to allow we to win my League Championship. :D

 
Why the hate for Deion? I'd take those stats for 8 games. A receiver that averages 3/4 of a td in dames he plays. What's wrong w/ that? This in a system where you now that will be weeks where he sees no catches. I like the guy. He makes plays when given the opportunity. What is not to like?

 
Well, according to FBG scoring he is the 26th ranked receiver, which means he really shouldn't even be starting in 12 team leagues. He finished below the baseline for all the VBD geeks.

 
The interesting paradox in all this is that FBG projected him at #25 WR, he is currently #26. So, very good job in the ranking.However, he is projecting out to only 119 fantasy points for the year vs. 142 for the FBG projections. So, the projection is off by about 16%. This is another instance that makes me lean toward AVT over VBD; the rank was spot on but the projection saw a large error.
