Redskins Release Brandon Lloyd

Late 3rd round 2006 - Brandon Williams from Wisconisn who still hasn't caught a pass in the NFL. They then took Jay Moore from Nebraska who wne ton IR last year.

However the thing is our front office does a great job of picking players in the draft, especially in the later rounds. In my opinion those two picks could have produced a starter and a role player.

I just went back to look at who was available in the 2006 draft, just for kicks, and you want to see a real kick in the groin? Check this out:

119Denver (from Washington)Brandon Marshall (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brandon_Marshall)Wide receiverUCF (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/University_of_Central_Florida)

So Denver got Brandon Marshall with one of our picks. You know, the same Brandon Marshall that had 102 receptions for 1,325 yards and 7 tds last year. That 6-4 230 lbs. guy who is the reason the Broncos can trade Javon Walker without giving it a second thought. Another thing to keep in mind when we start getting too cavalier about trading away picks ....

Did they get him as part of the Campbell trade or the Duckett trade?

Good question, actually. I guess it would be part of the Campbell deal right? I guess that makes it slightly easier to swallow. Redskins very likely wouldn't have drafted Williams there anyway, but it just places into relief the potential value of these picks. Cheap players who might actually turn into big time producers.

If the obvious involves taking a poke at the team, he's all over it.

I wasnt taking a poke at the team, I was pointing out a problem and hoping the new staff will do better.

Poke/point.... what's the difference.

It's tough to believe that simply because I can't recall the last time I saw a post from you giving praise to the team of any sort.

You may think positive things about the team, but since you don't seem to post them, you come across very negative.

irish eyes aren't smiling

I'm glad it's over. Everybody knows this was a bad move by the team. I think this could be a lesson learned about ripping up a FA's contract when trading for someone. At the time BL had 1 year remaining on his deal.

It's really sad b/c BL does have alot of talent. I saw a highlight reel just the other day. The guy can make some amazing catches. He must be just a total jackass though. I'm glad we can move on though.
