Engram and Branch
What are we to expect from returning Seahawks WR’s Deion Branch and Bobby Engram?
Branch is 8 months removed from the field due to a torn ACL suffered while playing on a high ankle sprain. Common sense tells me that even those he’s back that his leg is in bad shape and probably never going to be the same again. While he’s good when healthy, I’m not sure how long he’ll be healthy for once he starts cutting and taking hits.
As for Engram, he’s been on the shelf for a couple months with a cracked bone in his shoulder. I’m guessing this is similar to what Mendenhall just went on IR for. In any event, it’s a shoulder injury and I’m pretty sure it didn’t limit Engram from running and staying in shape. He might have lost some upper body strength but as a WR I think he’ll be able to produce pretty quickly. The current corps of Seahawks WRs are garbage so it shouldn’t be tough to contribute right away.

I'd recommend that you bench both Engram and Branch.
