Cards Should Grab Branch

[Harry]

The Cards are short on the D-Line but they are talking with Andre Branch. As a rotation player he fits the type of guys Keim has had success building into a decent line.

Bring him aboard, we need the depth & experience. What's up with Corey Peters? Didn't notice him in any of the OTA & mini camp videos.

Andre Branch would be a depth OLB signing behind Jones, Suggs, & Reed, so not sure how this would help D line depth.

I am surprised we haven't signed Domata Peko (NT). Veteran, leader, and solid grade from PFF.

For a second, I thought you were referring to Alan Branch and was about to go insane

If we're going to grab a branch, make sure it's not a "dead" branch that breaks off in our hands.

You mean the same Alan Branch who left here and went on to be on 2 Super Bowl winning teams?

Traded up to get him. Had a skateboarding tattoo. The “lightbulb” was supposed to come on in year 3.

I wonder how long it takes for them to sign a player if its been over 2 days?

Tre Boston took a couple of months last year. Players have an expectation of what they're worth, however the market determines it.

Branch would give them the option of rolling out an occasional 4-3 which they’ve successfully done in the past. I wouldn’t rule out them using him as a 3-4 DE in some passing situations as well but the OLB backup would be a plus.

 

[Cbus cardsfan]

Unless his attitude has changed, that’s a big NO to Andre Branch.
In Jax, he thought/acted/viewed himself as a superstar but had little production to back it up.

Maybe he’s been humbled and is willing to put the time and effort in now but that wasn’t the case in Jax.

Cardinals signed OLB Andre Branch. Another depth option behind Chandler Jones and Terrell Suggs following the release of Matt Longacre.

Cardinals have filled 1 of their 3 open roster spots by signing LB Andre Branch to 1-year deal. Branch played last 3 seasons with Miami, had 97 tackles, 11.5 sacks

 

[BigRedRage]

nice!

Me too. I was like "He's still playing?"

Branch had a 47.0 overall grade last season with the Dolphins. His best season came with the Jaguars in 2014 with a 64.0 overall grade.

 

[SeattleCard]

Harry... you called it! Well done sir.

 

[BACH]

I think this a very solid signing as the #4 spot at OLB.

 

[TheCardFan]

Should be a good sign for Robertson.

Cardinals released OLB Andre Branch.
Branch had a quiet free agency and couldn't make it a full month in Arizona. Now on the wrong side of 30, Branch is facing an uphill battle at cracking an active roster. Branch recorded just 1.5 sacks for the Dolphins last season.

The teams needs him.

 

[The Kraken]

The teams needs him.

Check out 2:48 and tell me how we need an OLB who can't set the edge and was nonexistent as a pass rusher...

He gone. Played himself out of a spot.

I think he got outplayed. The LBs had an outstanding game, especially on the outside. This unit looks like the strength of the D.
