I don't want another no-name like Jaquan Walker. Now if you were thinking Javon Walker, WELL then I'd be interested.

Yes, thank you. I couldn't remember his name for nothing. I like Javon Walker. He wants to play for a winning team and has the passion he plays with.

I don't think so. He tore his ACL in the first game last year and resented coming back for Greenbay after Favre called him out. He doesn't think someone is going to give up a first or second pick for him after that injury. That's one reason why Lavar isn't going to get a big payday.

Walker isn't going to sign for chump change, neither will LaVar.

Both are considered to be star players and will be paid accordingly, regardless of injury.

Besides, Walker is a #1 WR which we already have in Moss.

There wouldn't be enough balls to go around between Moss, Cooley and Walker.

All we need is a nice compliment to Moss who can snag 50 passes or so.

I definitely think that he is worth a second rounder. He had some big games with Tim Rattay. He didn't do much with Smith but I don't know if Smith broke the 100 yard barrier last year. I bet Saunders could turn him into a monster

Lloyd might actually make Santana look buff. He's one scrawny kid.

i would gladly give up a second rounder for lloyd. the dude is a freak. he's got the best hands in the league. reminds me bit of a young chris carter....minus the off-field transgressions.

I don't know about the Cris Carter comparison but I do like Lloyd.

Maybe he has huge eyebrows like Cris Carter and loves to hate on the Skins?

he doesn't. he can jump, but he drops a lot of balls to. maybe its a focus thing.

Amen brother. I mean if we are trying to make that final push why are we targeting a bunch of 49ers players? Didn't we beat them by like 50 last year? I don't think Llyod is the kind of guy we need in the locker room. From all I've heard he doesn't strike me as a very good team guy and if we learned anything about the Skins this past season it is that they had great chemistry and played with amazing heart. Isn't that why we all loved cheering for them so much? I don't want another 2000 debacle . . . that was an absolute disaster . . . didn't the Danny learn anything from that?

One other thing. Why are we targeting Adam Archuleta? He is basically another linebacker who struggles against the pass. Shouldn't we be targeting a centerfielder type safety who can free up Sean Taylor to play more in the box, rush the qb, lay big hits, etc? Hopefully I am dead wrong since it looks like this is the direction the Skins are headed, but I just don't see Llyod, Archuleta, and Carter as the answers. Who I would really like to see in DC are David Givens, Nate Clements, and Darren Howard. I guess the latter two might be too expensive, but I can't imagine that Givens would command too much more money than Lloyd and he doesn't require a draft pick. I don't like having to overpay and then give up picks . . . I think the Skins have been too cavalier in the past few years in dealing those picks . . . I just don't think Llyod is worth it.

Apologies for providing the voice of doom . . . I guess I am just pessimistic by nature . . .
