Patriots acquired WR Deion Branch from the Seahawks for a 2011 fourth-round pick.
The writing was on the wall for this one, as Branch was held out of Monday's practice and rumors had him heading to New England. Branch is a great fit back in New England, though it's hard to know how much he has left in the tank. A fourth-round pick is at least two rounds too high, and unless the Seahawks are picking up a significant portion of Branch's $5 million salary, this trade looks like a big win for Seattle.
