A league source now tells Profootballtalk.com that SI.com's report about Alan Branch having stress fractures in both legs is accurate.
However, PFT notes that different doctors will give different medical opinions. We're not sure how this will affect Branch on draft day, but defensive linemen often tend to struggle with nagging lower leg injuries.

Apparently, he was walking around fine during the Michigan spring game on Saturday.. Stress fractures are very common with athletes.. No big deal.

Not that I want Alan Branch, as I think he'll be a bust .

How do you get a stress fracture from doing nothing? He needs to drink more milk.

Easy being overweight and out of shape and then trying to train enough to get drafted higher. Yet again someone that is lazy is going to lose millions

I never wanted Branch and I sure as heck hope we stay away from him now.
