I think Givens is a solid blocker though, something that the posse all did well & is often the difference in a play going 20 yds. or to the house.
Plus, Givens just signed w/an $8 mil bonus, less than our guys.
Nonetheless, if Loyd can keep his cool here & make big plays, he's only 24 & may prove to be a relative bargain w/time.

I thought Lloyd adressed his problems with the 49ers well in his interview on Redskins.comtv. He said that he was just being himself and that teammates didnt appriciate him being upbeat despite the fact that they were loosing, he kept saying I play best when Im having fun. He also pointed out that Portis is able to be his goofy self on the Redskins and so he felt he could come to washington and be himself. It'll be fun to watch him this season, on and off the feild, and I doubt we'll have any trouble from him.
