Brandon Lloyd VERY interested in joining the Patriots

[Sciz]

Meachem = cheaper Lloyd and he has experience in a ball spreading offense. He won't complain. With his speed, height and build there is a lot of potential in this kid. Brady could do a lot of things with him.

I'm not so sure he'll be cheaper, and he's going to want a longer contract, too. And that means more guaranteed money. Meachem will probably get a 5 year contract. Lloyd, 2-3.

I'd pay the kid the extra guaranteed money for the extra years he can give us. What's wrong with signing Meachem up to a five year deal? I would do it. Think long term. Lloyd is a short term solution.

And the overrating of Meachem has begun....

Lloyd's been in the "McDaniels' system" for 3 years. If the Patriots sign him, it'll be done while having plenty of information about his temper and tendencies.

That's probably true and it doesn't contradict my comment. McDaniels might not really want him or might want someone else more at wr. We'll soon find out.

The Rams, with McDaniels as the OC, traded for Lloyd in the middle of last season. Unless something happened in St. Louis that went unreported, Lloyd did nothing to harm his status with McDaniels while there.
