Branch wants 12 guaranteed

Deion Branch is said to be looking for a contract extension that includes $12 million guaranteed.A Patriots source claims the team felt David Givens' contract with Tennessee "was ridiculous." Branch's current deal expires after the upcoming season.I'd give it to him, he's a proven number one WR in this league. And it's to early to have Chad Jackson be number one.

 

He is proven but I hate when players do this, it shows their side of greed and not just the desire to be on the feild.

All I know is I'd PAY to have that job

 

Ya me to, maybe I'd get drafted if I said that.

 

Give it to him because he earned it though the years with the Patroits. Not to mention he's a Super Bowl MVP, this guy means a lot to your franchise team so i'd give him the money he wants to make him remain with the team for a long, long, time.

He shouldn't have to take his contract demands public. Just do your job on the feild and talk to management in private.

you know he did... just trying to start some T.O.-like drama in New England, or let people throughout the league know how much he's worth.
