Well, he's still young, which is his advantage over Patten. I'm just not one to believe that the ability to block, run good routes, go fearlessly over the middle, and be a good special teams player can be developed at age 26.
I
DO believe that his attitude problems will improve with age. But even if they do, and he becomes an outstanding person/citizen, you are still left with a below average NFL receiver.
I'm worried that my predjudices with the idiotic trade that brought him here may be affecting my perception of Lloyd the receiver, but I just can't see him improving to the point where he deserves a roster spot.
Archuleta's only issue is health. Lloyd's best case scenario is a glorified third wideout. If I'm going to hope for one guy to free up cap space for the future, why wouldn't it be Lloyd?
