Tyvon Branch | Oakland Raiders | Strong Safety
Team Defensive Style: 4-3
2011 Experience: 4th Season
IDP Fantasy Football Outlook: With key loses in the secondary, expect opposing quarterbacks like Philip Rivers to challenge the Raiders secondary early and often this year. Oakland is actually getting better against the run as they may have one of the better front lines in football but Branch should be one active safety in the running game and in the passing game this year.
Only LaRon Landry tops Branch on our list for defensive backs this season, as the Raiders star safety should find his way over 120 tackles for the second time in three seasons. The addition of his four sacks a year ago gives hope that he can be a better play-maker, but his bread an butter is sniffing out the tackles and ending plays.
