    Not trying to turn this into a Brandon Lloyd discussion......but I am not sure if an active player could have helped those teams at that time period.

    Lol, so tell me who you are gonna draft in that 5th round?

    This aint rocket science. Our current WRs are not #1WR caliber. Britt may never return to form. This is a unique situation, where the Texans are our biggest threat and winning the division = home playoff game.


    Worst case scenario, he sucks, we are out a 5th rounder and don't re-sign him.

    Best case scenario = he makes a difference maybe this season! Good for several seasons which benefits Locker and Britt (assuming he returns to form after injury... doubtful in itself).

    Anyone else think the Rams valued Lloyd more because he already knew Josh McDaniels' offense?

    Klug was a 5th round pick, Finnegan and McCourty were both 6th round picks. There are plenty of quality guys in the later rounds.

    None of our receivers are #1 calibur, but are you trying to tell me Llyod is a #1 receiver? Do you even know what his career stats are? Lol. I understand he could slightly make our team better, but Brandon Lloyd isn't going to transform our team. Im just saying, why pay for a guy, when we have 3-4 receivers on the team already who could put up the same stats? I'd keep that draft pick, and hope it's a diamond in the rough that helps us out for the next 10 years. (not likely)

    ripping on 'fans' sucks. Yes some want every FA out there, but they are clearly NOT the majority here.

    agreed

    He's a million times more a #1 than Nate Washington or Lavelle Hawkins.

    Have you ever seen him play?

    Did I say he was?


    Because we DO NOT have 3-4 receivers on this team anywhere near as good at this point in time. Name them to me.

    We are also not "paying" anything for him. He's in the final year of his deal. Worst case scenario we are renting a WR for 10 weeks. (were renting as it is now)

    Who would you draft?

    As a fan looking at a Titans team one game behind the Texans... I would trade a 5th rounder for 10 games of B.Lloyd. 5th rounders are not that damn valuable.

    Home playoff games are however, very desirable.

    I agree about 5th rounders

    I would rather see what Avery can do myself
