Guest Sores Posted March 11, 2006 Share Posted March 11, 2006 Washington and San Francisco are nearing a deal that would send a 2006 third-round pick and a 2007 fourth-round selection to the 49ers for wide receiver Brandon Lloyd. Pending a physical, the deal should be completed before the end of the weekend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
msaint Posted March 11, 2006 Share Posted March 11, 2006 my obsession = best avatar ever. Lloyd would give the Skins the good #2 to Moss they didn't have last year. Smart move, IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For a minute I was afraid that SF would actually have a wide receiver that people had heard of before. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
muck Posted March 11, 2006 Share Posted March 11, 2006 Was just thinking the same thing. I'm also wondering if somewhere, Johnny Morton is smiling at the thought of getting to re-sign with the '9ers...I mean, its not like there is anyone else. :ArnazBattle: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darin3 Posted March 11, 2006 Share Posted March 11, 2006 Wow, what a terrible deal for the Niners. Lloyd's the closest thing to a star they have on their roster. Maybe they know something we don't. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Avernus Posted March 11, 2006 Share Posted March 11, 2006 No. Probably not. 1364364[/snapback] Reid should be the one making a move for him with all that cap space and he fits our system to boot... now it appears Givens is our only hope at WR...unless Antonio Bryant gets a look, which is unlikely...

Not that he's the be all end all, but this year's FA market for WR's stinks! So that might be about the best they get. But hey, on the bright side Pinkston will be back right Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DMD Posted March 11, 2006 Share Posted March 11, 2006 I cannot imagine why SF burned a #1 overall pick in the draft to get QB Alex Smith and then apparently are determined to surround him with crap. Evidently his learning curve is being satisfied with wideouts that are little better than found in your average pickup game in a city park. Why have supposedly the best QB of the 2005 college class and then ensure that all talent around him is stripped away??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lloyd made some INCREDIBLE catches this past season. From what I've heard, he's not really a thug. I think he did make some noise at one point, but I believe it was just simple frustration with the situation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
General Itals Posted March 12, 2006 Share Posted March 12, 2006 What has Brandon Lloyd done? He's got some talent, but hasn't produced much. He moves into a similar situation with the skins. That team will be horribel next year. He wasn't even the top guy on a really bad team the last couple of years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe they know something we don't. 1364363[/snapback] I think they've seen too much of the following: http://img.photoamp.com/i/cgHCyJ.gif . He has made some spectacular catches over the last couple years but he doesn't make the small plays and that's ticked off some of the veterans and the coaching staff. A third and a 4th is more than I would have figured they could get, now here's hoping they actually add a couple decent targets through the draft this year for Smith to build some chemistry with. Maybe grab VD and use their 2nd to grab one of the WRs if they fall, or use the extra 3rd to move up to around 20th and grab Jackson ... I know as a homer that I would like to see some sort of intelligence like that, but hey at least they resigned Nedney. : Edited March 12, 2006 by cph Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember seeing another play like that but worse because of a big hit coming. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doc Holliday Posted March 12, 2006 Share Posted March 12, 2006 Reid should be the one making a move for him with all that cap space and he fits our system to boot... now it appears Givens is our only hope at WR...unless Antonio Bryant gets a look, which is unlikely... 1364394[/snapback] IMO Givens is easily the best WR to get in free agency. problem is I believe he is seeking a little more money than the others. depending on how much he does want he would be the guy I would go after if I was the Eagles.
