I got Bernard Pollard and Tyvon Branch. Talks are making me start Branch. Not worth the risk. Thoughts?
If I had Branch I’d consider playing him over Pollard if I were playing conservative and playing a team that I was fairly equal with and wanted stable production. If I was swinging for the fences or facing a team that looked slightly better or way better than mine, I’d pencil in Pollard. Since it is week 1 and you can afford to wait on seeing the time split, go ahead and start Branch. I just have a sneaky feeling Pollard will see a lot of time and be in the box a lot against Pitt.
