I see Archie as a post June 1 cap cut for reasons that Sneed pointed out. Before the St. Louis game Sports talk 980 had a beat writer from St. Louis (who was actually a Skins fan) and he said Archie has a bad back and since he had injured his back he has not been the same player he was in his first couple of years in the league. He went to say that back injuries like the one he sustained are incrediably tough to come back from - why our FO could not see this before they gave him the largest contract for safety in history I don't understand.

I think the Skins will keep Llyod one more season to prove whether he belongs or not because you just don't give up 2 picks for a one year rental. That way if he does not pan out you can cut him post June 1 for the next year and spread you cap hits accordingly.
