The Cardinals made a great move in trading up to get Branch who was projected to be a Top 10 pick in the Draft.  Branch is a big guy at 6′5″, 330 and his job is to wreak havoc in the middle of the defensive line and occupy a double team to keep the linebackers clean to make plays.  In fact, Branch is the main reason that linebacker David Harris turned into a star for Michigan.  In 37 games (23 starts) at Michigan, Branch made 61 tackles, 18 tackles for a loss, had 9 sacks, batted 2 balls, forced 3 fumbles and recovered 4 fumbles.  Look for the Cardinals linebackers to benefit from having Branch in the middle as long as he plays hard every down.  Branch was a very good pick for the Cardinals.
