Fantasy Football
News: 7 days agoBranch caught both of his targets for nine yards while adding 85 yards as a kick returner during Sunday's 31-23 loss to Chicago.
Spin: Branch has now caught exactly two passes in three straight games, but he has only compiled 34 total yards on those receptions. The wide receiver is merely a depth option behind the likes of Drake London, Jahan Dotson and Olamide Zaccheaus, and he's much more valuable as a return specialist for Atlanta. On the season, Branch has reeled in nine of 10 targets for 55 yards over six contests so far.
ESPN Fantasy Projection: Branch was selected by the Falcons in the third round of April's draft. Branch is a tiny slot receiver who posted an extremely low 5.2 aDOT during 37 collegiate games. That limited his efficiency numbers a bit, though he caught 71% of his targets and was terrific after the catch (7.9 RAC). Branch has the look of a versatile (perhaps gadget) player who will help as a rusher, slot receiver and returner. That role makes him a longshot for consistent fantasy output, but he does have a path to No. 2 receiver duties behind Drake London with the likes of Olamide Zaccheaus and Jahan Dotson his primary competition. Branch should only be drafted in dynasty.
