Re: Brandon Lloyd is not a bust!
With the caveat that he is not a bust "Yet", I'd agree. However, I think he is well on the way. He had a reputation for making phenomenal catches in SF but then disappearing for games. He has done nothing to refute that reputation.
Besides, physical skills have never been an issue for Lloyd. Rather, it's the fact that he is a total head case that appears to be his stumbling block. He has apparently pissed off not only his teammates but everyone in Redskin Park down to the janitor. In a the Tampa game, he blames a dropped pass (that would have been an easy TD) on the fact that he was overthrown by 10 yards and, in doing so, throws his QB (Campbell) under the bus.
No, he's not a bust yet. Maybe with JC he will be a consistent downfield threat that will work to help his QB. I doubt it. But who knows - maybe he gets his mind right. 'Cause what we got now is a failure to communicate.
