Compensation for Lloyd
 

[size=2]Per [url="http://sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?file=/chronicle/archive/2006/03/11/SPGH9HML4D1.DTL"]SFGate.com[/url] article:

The Redskins are reportedly interested in trading for Lloyd, who led the 49ers in receptions last year. A source close to Lloyd said Washington was prepared to offer [b]a third-round choice this season and a fourth rounder in next year's draft[/b]. Lloyd, who apparently has been secretly seeking a trade, expected the deal to be completed.[/size]

Is that too much?? Hard to tell.

If he's the next Santana Moss or makes that kind of leap forward, it's a steal.

If's he's the next David Patton, we got robbed.

I go by this one thing when it comes to stuff like this, if Gibbs likes him enough to pay that kind of price there must be something to it.

Two mid round picks for a RFA?

Pretty good deal for the Skins if you ask me.

Yeah it's a steal.

I'd agree with that. I know the Skins need to add some depth, but there aren't a whole lot of players who will be available in those rounds who will have the same type of impact that Brandon Lloyd would have in his first season with us. Also, he's still a young player, but I thought he had some character issues.

Sounds good 2 me as long as he can get open and make some catches wen we need him 2 catch it or make some big plays down da line

Re: Compensation for Lloyd
 

sounds like a pretty good deal to me

Re: Compensation for Lloyd
 

sooner it is completed, the sooner i can breathe easy

Re: Compensation for Lloyd
 

one mid rounder this year and one next year sound a lot better to me than the 1st round pick cost of his being a RFA. I hope it works out and they r smart about his contract and don't give him too much.

The compensation package sounds fair to me, he's definitely not worth a 1st or 2nd rounder IMO. Just hoping we don't overpay in the salary department.

Re: Compensation for Lloyd
 

I think he is worth ONE second for sure. I mean i wanted that second for a pretty good rookie WR and I think that Lloyd is better than them.

Absolutely. When I first read about the Lloyd rumours, I expected us to have to part with our 2nd at least. But a third this year and a six next? Jump on that sh** b4 they come to their senses.

I have to admit, I have not seen Lloyd play so I don't know what he really looks like in a game. But the more I have read about him, the more I like him.

Just posted this in the Brandon Lloyd thread before seeing this one (damn, those duplicate threads!!!):

Essentially, saying that with Moss opposite him, Lloyd could really do well.

I have been wondering why this trade hasn't happen yet, but I finally found out what the redskins are probably doing. They're are flyin' in Randle El.... IMO They haven't contacted Nolan about Lloyd yet because they are gonna lock up Randle El first and he'll be our #2 then they go ahead with the Lloyd trade. I just read the SF article on Lloyd and it said that a trade of Lloyd would free up the 49ers to go after Randle El but the Skins are genius they are get Randle El b4 the 49ers can offer him a contract because a trade of Lloyd would allow the 9ers to offer more then the Skins but maybe not b4 sssssoooo...

#1 Sign Randle El, Cater, and Archie
#2 Trade 4 Lloyd
#3 ??????

Re: Compensation for Lloyd
 

Guess I would trade for Lloyd first - If the Skins sign El and SF believes El to be their best option, then, with their chosen receiving option off the board, why would SF trade away their prior year's top receiver?

Also, both money and intangibles wise, given the choice - where you gonna play, SF or Washington? If you have to think about this for more than two seconds, I suggest you take up baseball.
