On the other hand though, if this is the guy they really want, this is the guy they are gonna get.

Brandon freakin' Lloyd. I like the idea of going after a younger #2 receiver (as opposed to the older veteran route), but if we're targeting restricted free agents, take a run at Nate Burleson. We'd only have to compensate the Vikings with a 3rd round pick and he'd probably cost less in salary than Lloyd. Both receivers are young with good potential. They have similar size. Injuries killed Burleson's season last year and a team going after him is buying low while his stock is down.

I am a little mixed. I think we could use the second round pick to help our secondary, but if they are willing to send it to the 49ers for Lloyd, then they obviously have a plan regarding adding CB or safety help. I think I would be alot better move than signing Bruce, or Randel EL. He is only 24, and is going into his prime in the next year or two. Like someone said earlier we can sign him to a long term deal, 4 or 5 years. Might be a pretty good move. 2nd round pick would be 22 years old and not ready to play in a year or two anyway.
