Bedard, Reiss & Guregian's Sunday Notes

[patsfan-1982]

Lloyd was never a star WR he had one career year because he was Orton go to guy, Lloyd is a mid level WR and thats the type of season he had when a QB finds a WR he likes even a mid level WR can put up big numbers for a year or two...so what that said he was not a bust with the pats he just did he's job at he's talent level

Who are these receivers who want $14M a year?

His numbers are a bit off (definitely high), but his point remains the same.

All of Wallace, Jennings, and Bowe will be wanting 11+ million per year. Jennings reportedly has been said to have claimed at least 12 million, and Wallace started with numbers in the ridiculous range of 14+, but likely tempered that down to 12 or so.

Either way, you'd be right in pointing out that it isn't "14 million" a year, but his point is that we're not going to be able to reasonably afford any of these guys, nor would they offer good value on any level if we could.

Yes. The actual title of the article has been changed, although they did not change the header text, which is what url tag draws its text from.

How much cred does Josh have on draft day?

Moreno, Thomas, Decker, Beadles and Walton say he has some

Laurence Maroney and Chad Jackson were recommended by McDaniels.

Shanahan craved Maroney in that draft FYI.

A little less now would think.

I don't know, he did fairly well in Denver. The broncos upset vs the steelers was entirely from his drafting. Pretty sure he had drafted 6 starters in one draft and all of them played a big role in that game.

Back to the notes:
Really wanted to bring in Antonio Garay last offseason and him and wilfork could switch between dt and de. But with our roster commited to the 43, not sure how he'd fit. We don't need another run stuffer as much as an interior rusher.
