Per SFGate.com (http://sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?file=/chronicle/archive/2006/03/11/SPGH9HML4D1.DTL) article:
The Redskins are reportedly interested in trading for Lloyd, who led the 49ers in receptions last year. A source close to Lloyd said Washington was prepared to offer a third-round choice this season and a fourth rounder in next year's draft. Lloyd, who apparently has been secretly seeking a trade, expected the deal to be completed.

Is that too much?? Hard to tell.
If he's the next Santana Moss or makes that kind of leap forward, it's a steal.
If's he's the next David Patton, we got robbed.
I go by this one thing when it comes to stuff like this, if Gibbs likes him enough to pay that kind of price there must be something to it.
Two mid round picks for a RFA?
Pretty good deal for the Skins if you ask me.

I'd agree with that. I know the Skins need to add some depth, but there aren't a whole lot of players who will be available in those rounds who will have the same type of impact that Brandon Lloyd would have in his first season with us. Also, he's still a young player, but I thought he had some character issues.

one mid rounder this year and one next year sound a lot better to me than the 1st round pick cost of his being a RFA. I hope it works out and they r smart about his contract and don't give him too much.

The compensation package sounds fair to me, he's definitely not worth a 1st or 2nd rounder IMO. Just hoping we don't overpay in the salary department.
