Would you trade a 4th/5th for Brandon Lloyd?

With the NFL trade deadline looming, the Broncos have been in talks with other teams regarding Pro Bowl receiver Brandon Lloyd, according to three NFL sources.

The Broncos are believed to be seeking anywhere from a third to fifth round draft pick in return. There have been "three or four" teams who have expressed interest in Lloyd, according to a source.

A quick google search doesn't turn up his agent, but he's not represented by Rosenhaus.

It might only be a one year deal, since he's an impending free agent, though who knows with the way Hurney has been making it rain.

He'd immediately upgrade the number two receiver role, though it might be Rims on a Pinto the way the defense has been playing.

in a fuging second

dude makes some of the most ridiculous catches I have ever seen. a lot of Cam's overthrows would be sure completions to Lloyd.

and if we did trade for him, would we get a compensation pick(prob a 4th depending on how well he does) if he walks?

Why would we trade anything for him if its going to be a one and done. We not going to win the Superbowl this year(sorry), so its not like he's going to push us over the top. I would trade anything unless it comes with an extension

^^^ this

And if we're going to sign him to a sizeable extension then you might as well wait till the offseason and spend that same amount of $$$ on a free agent WR and save your draft picks.

    • AT got what he deserved. Be gone and enjoy those 4 catches and the bench and your pay cut
    • we have been bad offensively basically every game Rico Dowdle hasn't gone full Tecmo Bowl Bo Jackson on folks.  
    • Strongly disagree with the premise here. Without getting too into it, the biggest gripe for many has always been his footwork and pocket presence.  Shallow drops, happy feet, bad awareness - his overall technique is highly unconventional and not beneficial to his size/frame.  His upper body gets mad out of sync with his lower, drops back parallel to the LOS, erratic behavior. When you take that to the NFL level, you get swallowed up. And he got shellshocked and started bailing way too soon on plays. Unnecessary throwaways when he should step UP into the pocket and hit.   He got away with it in school because sooo much of his work was out of structure or quick hits to Jamo.  He was able to not bail early and stick in the pocket this last game. He also was dropping deeper than he usually does to create sight lanes. He can’t really outrun DLs so he needs to create that space via drop to survey properly. When he does these bs skip hops in the gun, he barely drops and is flooded. He needs to stay active with his feet but learn to step into the pocket more.  His average arm when he’s not doing this right turns Pennington esque.
