It’s almost like the Colts want to do the Bob Sanders thing again.
According to Conor Orr of NFL.com, the Colts are bringing former Raiders safety Tyvon Branch in for a free agent visit.
When he’s well, Branch is a very good safety, the kind of guy who would represent an upgrade over their last free agent safety by (the just-cut LaRon Landry).
Only, it’s hard to count on Branch being well, after he’s played just five games the last two seasons. A broken leg and a broken foot might not be connected, and might not be a sign of future events.
But still, it’s hard to gauge what his market will be, and how any team is willing to invest in a guy with so little tape the last two years.
