Re: Brandon Lloyd
 

From the Sporting News
2006 scouting report
Strengths: Has good quickness and acceleration. Uses his long arms and great leaping ability to win jump balls and make spectacular catches. Has soft hands and can catch balls away from his body. Has good technique getting off press coverage and is adept at finding holes in zone coverage.

Weaknesses: Lacks the strength to be a physical blocker and gets knocked around by physical defensive backs. Doesn’t get quality separation on deep routes and will occasionally drop easy catches.

Bottom line: Lloyd must improve his strength and show a more competitive attitude to take his play to the next level, but he should have a good career if he works hard.

Sign him, but not for too much money.

we don't have a 1st round pick, so you'd be fine giving up a 2 a 3 and a player that the 49ers want for him?

Re: Brandon Lloyd
 

I think Lloyd would be great but I can't see the 49ers letting him get away. They are not exactly rolling in offensive talent out there. My thinking has shifted in the direction of making a utility O-Lineman our top FA priority.

I don't know all that much about Lloyd, but I hear he is a bit of a prima donna who doesn't have the best work ethic. Tim Ryan was talking about him on Sirius this week and described how he asked Llyod during an interview about his film study habits. He said Llyod responded by saying that he doesn't watch much tape because all he has to do is go out and burn a guy a couple of times and the CB will just get scared. I'm not sure what planet he is living on, but I don't think that sort of work ethic will get you too far in the NFL where everyone runs a 4.3 . . . it sure hasn't gotten Llyod too far thus far in his career beyond inconsistent play. Think you'd ever hear Jerry Rice or Art Monk say something like that?

Let's sign Josh Brown then beat the crap out of him for all the garbage he talked about how "Matthew" was going to have his way with us.

I'm not comparing the two, but I heard once that Marvin Harrrison never watches game film either

God it's pathetic when a person has to stoop so low as to say another guy is gonna beat your ass.

Welcome to the board! Lloyd is a bit taller

Re: Brandon Lloyd
 

It's possible the Post might be wrong about any interest in Brandon Lloyd. It's happened before.

Thanks. I Wasn't Sure. I Don't Keep Up With The Niners That Much.

Re: Brandon Lloyd
 

Wait a minute fellas. I think Jaquan Walker wants out of Greenbay. He's coming off of a torn ACL so he would have to prove himself, but I'm interested.
