Schefter: Pats sign Brandon Lloyd

[Ring 6]

The closest thing to Lloyd would be Terry Glenn in 2001. Glenn played one game with Brady against the Chargers. Glenn caught 7 passes for 110 yards, including a 21 yard TD.

Both are similiar in that they are sharp route runners with great hands.

What a horrible comparison to shackle Llyod with.
By the way, Glenn played 4 games with Brady, and caught a total of 7 passes in the other 3.

My bad on the stats

But, Jesus man...how is that a horrible comparison?

Both are quick to get away from press coverage, run great routes, go get balls that are out of reach, and have fantasic hands.

Glenn was perhaps a bit more explosive (speed)

It's actually a great comparison.

Have I not made mention that RB is less of a need than other positions or did you simply not read that in the myriad of threads discussing the RB situation?


How is it possible for you to say Ridley will be huge then come out and tell people to learn how to project? I sure hope Ridley goes on to be a star. It makes it considerably easier for the offense. Hell, I hope Vereen goes on to be a star too.


You need to read up a little more.


It's quite annoying how many people denigrate former Patriots players because they're not on the team.


How do you explain the huge passing numbers put up in 2011 if teams are happily defending the pass opposed to the rush? Wouldn't it make sense to have a stand out running given your qualification?


Yep, continue to play the disrespect card to a guy who gave the Patriots a few great years of service.


I have no problem with spending resources on the defense, in fact I've been championing it for some time. I also realize free agency is only one part of team building.

Hilarious.
