It's time for Brandon Lloyd to come home.
 
Looks like the Redskins released him. He's better than Anyone else we have outside of Bowe, young and he will probably be fairly cheap. Sign him Carl.

It's time to get some Blue Springs football blood into this team.

a beavy of WR FA's to choose from plenty of CAP money.... get it done with someone.

Bowser 02-27-2008 12:33 PM

Supposedly, he got released for having a poor work ethic, exactly wat a rebuilding team does not need.

You want Blue Springs represented at Arrowhead? Talk the Skins into trading LaDell Betts.

Draft.

Yep.

Almost every time I've heard/read Lloyd's name mentioned, the word "lazy" is usually soon to follow.

No thanks.

If we're going by the fact that he's "better than anyone we have outside of Bowe," that would take about 80% of the league into play.

Just about anyone would be a talent upgrade.

Sorry but pencil me out.

We're talking about a guy who's very best NFL season was a 48 reception 733 yard year with 5 TDs

And that was three years ago.

I honestly think some rookie WR could do not just as good but better when you look at the typical type of years Brandon has.

Sully 02-27-2008 12:38 PM

Not a big fan of his, after all the rumors about his personality.

His dad was my 8th grade algebra teacher, BTW.

jjchieffan 02-27-2008 12:39 PM

His best season was 2005, when he had 48 catches for 733 yards. He has never started 16 games in a season, and only started one game last year. Why would sign him. He is no improvement on Webb and Parker

Thanks, I'm super notified now.

I've heard all the same things, it seems like - poor work ethic, doesn't get along well with others, not well liked by teammates. Same story in San Fran as it was in Washington. And the guy has never really been that productive in the NFL anyway.

ChiefsCountry 02-27-2008 01:02 PM

Lloyd is a 3rd WR. We need one of those and a 2nd guy. I say sign him, right now we have Bowe, Webb, and Sippio. Lloyd is better than Webb and Sippio thats for sure.

|Zach| 02-27-2008 01:11 PM

Bah, he is more interested in being a rapper than being an elite football player.

Which is a shame because he has the skills.

chagrin 02-27-2008 01:14 PM

Again, we don't just sign everyone that gets waived, simply to see if they'll stick - quality choices need to be made here, not just every yutz with a number, geesh.

The view from washington:

Snyder Tells Lloyd: That’s a Rap

When the Redskins cut Brandon Lloyd yesterday, they gave up on more than a failed receiver. They gave up on a failed rapper, too.

So as he heads off in search of another deep-pocketed sucker, it’s worth checking out his songcraft one last time.

The tracks now have a profundity that was lacking when Lloyd debuted ‘em a couple years back. “I Get that Chedda,” for example. Lloyd got $10 million just for signing a reported five-year, $30 million deal with the Skins in 2006.

He had 25 catches in two years here. No touchdowns as a Redskin. None. But he gets to keep Dan Snyder’s, um, cheese.

And on “Superstar,” a guest vocalist tells Lloyd, “If you are what you say you are, a superstar, then have no fear.”

Again, no touchdowns as a Redskin. None.

And so he goes. Not surprisingly, Lloyd remains a free agent as a rapper, too.
