The buck stops with him. The guy should be coaching and not making personel moves.

Bottom line is they blew it. Now the question is can he pick up his play and his attitude? I think he gets one more year to prove himself.

It was the WaPo end of season article that attributed Saunders' infatuation with Lloyd to us trading for him.

If he plays well as the third receiver, I'll be happy. Right now, I don't think he deserves a roster spot, but we can't afford to cut him anymore.
