Clayton: Redskins Plan to Sign Randle El and Lloyd

Newby here. Randle El can be used in many more situations. Try to sign him and Will Witherspoon of the Panthers.

Man - free agency really shakes the lurkers out of the woodwork. Welcome!

Cutting Patten would make sense in terms of dollars. Skins would save about $600K on the cap this year and $3mil + next year. Randel EL + Lloyd + Moss sure seems like a huge upgrade over Patten + Thrash + Moss.

i also dont see u ssigning both and wouldnt that leave us like no money to fill our other needs?

Actually we have plenty of money for both.

Maybe Gibbs is covering his butt, talking to two to make sure he gets one?

WR is obviously a high priority, maybe priority #1...that being the case we cannot end this week without atleast one of the available recievers. Other teams are talking to them too and may have more $$ to spend. He may sign two but just because they are talking to two, or three or whatever doesn't mean they'll all get offered a contract.

I'm no expert but I think it will be EITHER Randle El or Lloyd. Then on to the next priority...LB, DL, CB, OL, DB.

Gibbs always has a back up plan...didn't we learn that this past week?

if we are only gonna get one, i would definitely rather have lloyd...he's a way better receiver

people just think randle el is better than he is because he can do some trick plays...i dont think he's a true #2 receiver

According to the Chicago Tribune, the Bears and Randle-El's agent discussed a contract believed to be 5 or 6 years at $20+ million. So if that's true, I guess that's what we would have to top to get him.

You should see a highlight reel of Brandon Lloyd, its jsut that he was on the 49ers or he would be more highly coveted, he makes acrobatic, roy will type catches.

As for cap room, we will be alright, im sure of it. if we sign DE carter and S archuleta, our D is basically set. and with cooley being cooley, sellers being the amazing blocker he is, we have two 270 pound guerillas blockin for moss, lloyd, randle el, and patten. If we sign randle el and lloyd today, i am going to do a crazy dance around the office!

it would be good if we could get randle el or brandon llyod their both quick but all da others i dnt know cuz we still need to fill lots of other positions

1st of all thanks guys for all the updates,, i am refreshing the page every 5 min because something worng with the tv cable and comcast cant come out untill monday to fix it,, great timing:frusty:,, but i wanted to know more about randle el,i know he would be a awsome fit for the skins at the trick plays that portis usually makes, after all he was a qb in college, but other than that how good is he at being a #2 wr? i havent gotten a chance to watch him that much throughout the season,, does he have good hands,, is he reliable? i would like to think that the only reason he got such hype lately is pretty much because of the play he made in the superbowl.:)
