Lloyd doesn't make trip to Meadowlands

[JWsleep]

This, Archuleta, and Duckett all at once is a black mark on our FO. Whatever their "system" is, it's really not working if ALL THREE of these deals got made. Sure, we got some decent (and very good FAs), but this is just sad.

We wont miss HIM, but we'll miss the 3rd and 4th round players who we never got to know. And it's just GREAT for the cap.

Arch was at least defendable, I mean he was coming off a year where he did very well in coverage and we were gambling that he wasn't a one year wonder. We gambled and lost, but that's OK in my book.

The only reason we brought in Lloyd is because Al Saunders told Gibbs that Lloyd was the best receiver he'd ever seen. So I pretty much lay the blame for that move at Al's feet. It was awful at the time, and then we didn't even know that he would continue to be a headcase. We just knew he was a horrid receiver.

Is it me or does the Big Ten always have big prospects who play like s**t in the NFL. It's sad, because im a big Wisconsin Badgers fan.

Totally not necessary.

Good bye.

He could always record anew rap albumn and call it "Hard dayz in da D.C." or "My two Catches" besides, as long as we have Cooley, we should be okay

Im of the opinion that the skins should get them most out of Lloyd that they can. I mean, they have already paid the guy, put him out there. He isnt really going to cost them the game (ie. Arch). It drives me insane that the skins throw away cap money (and real money) as well as draft picks, just to cast players by the wayside. I keep hearing that the skins have given him shot after shot, When? Last year was his first year and he hasnt even gotten on the field this year. 8 games into the season, none of our WRs have a touchdown, moss is clearly not 100%, and we keep picking up 30+ year old WR, can anyone honestly tell me that he is not better than this?

It doesn't send a great message to the team when you just "put a guy out there" who skips meetings, doesn't have much attention to detail (route running), and admits to dogging it (the INT in the endzone against Miami where he made a poor effort to chase down the defender).

This staff has been pretty consistent in sending the message that you have to earn your playing time, and regardless of contract situations if you don't earn your way you simply will not play.

Is Brandon Lloyd the biggest bust (not in a good way) of Gibbs II?

I think all the Llyod Supporters need to just come out and confess that this experiment is over. Stop saying that the coaches are not giving Brandon Llyod a fair chance because they are not putting him out there in games. This coaching staff expects players to put in 100% effort in practice and games and it is quite apprent Llyod cares only about himself.

I am tired of "we paid the guy big bucks, so he is obviously a good player". Just because a player makes big bucks does not mean that they are an elite player - it just means that a team's Front office made a mistake.

Going into the offseason I think the Redskins would be wise to go after mid-level receiver that is unrestricted - we cannot afford to surrender any more picks for a WR. Should the Skins go after one in the draft? I would rather the team focus on the offensive and defensive lines with the draft picks and pick up a WR in free agency because our depth on the lines is dangerously thin.

One more thing on the Llyod issue - if I remember correctly Schneed made a bet concerning Brandon Llyod on this website that Llyod would have less than 600 yards if I am not mistaken - just like to say nice call on that one!

Nice post. First names that come to mind on the free agent market are Bernard Berrian and Bryant Johnson.

Good post. It amazes me that people still take Lloyd's side on this.

Yes I did, good memory. I also said I'd be surprised if he came anywhere close.

He's horrible.

Agree or disagree, it's a little lame to call people out over something like this...
