I like Lloyd. I think he had decent production for a 3/4 option. I don't think the price they are paying for him is a great bargain but its notbad. He is getting what he deserves. And as for the people saying he didn't get enough touchdowns. How many TDs would you like the Patriots to get? When Gronk is back healthy you all will be complaining if: he doesn't get at least 20, Hernandez needs 15, another 15 for Welker if he comes back, gotta have at least 12 for Ridley, Then if Vereen, Woodhead and Edleman don't get at least 7 or 8 a piece they will all be waste of a roster spot... I think its time to get real with the production we expect out of these guys. There are only so many TDs to go around, and the Pats have a lot of other red zone targets. Lloyd is what he is.

Oh really? Didn't he draft Tebow?

Neither of these guys should be allowed to draft a WR. But alas they will pee away another high pick..

The blind squirrel thing makes no sense under the circumstances.

1 for 3 w/2nd round guys. Since round 2 is a 50/50 proposition in general, and the number is odd, but on track for that 50/50 split if the next pick is a success, there's no issue here.

2 for 6 w/lower than second round guys. Are you really trying to argue that a 33% hit rate on lower WR picks is a bad number?
Nope. BB had 5 high picks for WR and only one worked out...for a few years now he is broken down mule.

So you have no argument when confronted with the actual facts. That's what I thought.

Not me, I love Lloyd and what he's done this season. He's the best wide receiver currently signed on the roster and if Welker doesn't resign, Brady will be looking #85's way for sure next season. Lloyd will be even better next year. Don't forget that Lloyd was brought in for cheap.

The big question is, who is going to line up opposite Lloyd next season? And who will fill out the WR depth chart? Speed, size and depth is needed.

Five high picks and four busts. And one spectacular screwup--Sharon Tate instead of Wallace. Breathtakingly bad drafting. BB can draft some positions but not WR. FA is the way to go.

Lloyd should not be cut. He is a good number 2 or 3 WR.

Again, you have no argument. Data arguments simply don't back your claim. 9 picks from various parts of the draft, 2 of which were obviously flier picks (Tate, Sam) and 3 hits.

3 picks in the second, and 1-for-3. It's not "breathtakingly bad" at all, particularly for WRs.

Don't say 'hello' too loud...it may cause him to instantly drop to the ground. The good news is that he will land for a first down.





I kid, I kid.
