Let's do a quick review of Seattle's relationship with Deion Branch.
9/11/2006 - Seahawks trade a 1st round pick for Deion Branch. Now, in a quick aside, in a league which values draft picks above all else, and one in where the Patriots can trade a 4th round pick for Randy Moss and then trade him to the Vikings for a 3rd round pick, how did the Patriots fleece us in such a manner?
2006 - 14 games, 53 receptions, 4 TD's
2007 - 11 games, 49 receptions, 4 TD's
2008 - 8 games, 30 receptions, 4 TD's
2009 - 14 games, 45 receptions, 2 TD's
And after 4 games in 2010 Seattle trades him back to Patriots for a 4th round pick.
With his mediocre tenure here, I think all Seahawks' fans can agree two of his most memorable moments are:
1. His TD against Dallas, and subsequently screaming into the camera "You know where to find me!" (Yet we were told this remark had no trade insinuations)
2. His guest appearance on the Nate Burleson Show along with fellow knucklehead T.J. Houshmandzadeh (all three of which are now gone) and proclaiming, "If you ain't with us, then you're against us!". And whining that no one gives him credit for showing up everyday ready to work (yes, none of us know what this is like).
Deion, Seattle wants you as much as I want syphilis. GOOD RIDDANCE!
