Matty - not trying to be nitpicky here - my hope is the Skins stop throwing draft picks around like they did in the past because my belief is the only way to build long lasting quality teams is through the draft with some free agent spinkles if you know what I mean. I know that a lot of draft picks will not turn out to be good, but at least with more picks you get more chances and outside of the 1st round picks from the 2nd round down they don't squeeze the cap like a $10 million dollar bonus to a Brandon Llyod does.
The point is you can't say the 49ers got the better end because they simply did not based on who they drafted.

I'm not saying it was wise to give away those picks.

I dont think that's accurate. The trade should not be viewed as what did the 49ers do with those picks, but rather, who was available that the Skins could have drafted? If you look at it your way, the Bailey for Portis deal was not a bad deal for the Skins even though most fans would agree that the Skins paid too much by throwing in a draft pick.

Re: Lloyd doesn't make trip to Meadowlands

Not sure if any of the locals heard George Michael tonight. While he was interviewing Joe Bugel he killed Brandon Lloyd. He said he was stealing from the Redskins and he should give back 1 million to the Redskins charity. He just lit him up real bad. Hopefully someone can post the interview.

I think he was referring to George Michael. Joe Bugel really didn't have much to say, while GM was going off on Brandon Lloyd.

Re: Lloyd doesn't make trip to Meadowlands

Great video clip of George Michael ripping into Lloyd!! He's right, put your money where your mouth is and if you are good enough then you get it back. The FO should have had some performance clauses written into the contract where if you don't reach certain milestones you don't get paid.

Honestly, after that, what can Brandon Lloyd say? He just got pissed on so bad. He looks like a little bitch. You know everyone over at Redskins Park is just laughing at him behind his back. How can he come back after that? He should just leave town tomorrow.

The Redskins knew what they were getting in BL when they made this move but made it anyway. Once again the organization should do its best minimize the loss of the draft picks and essentially the loss of a roster spot. Hopefully someday the organization will learn from its mistakes.

Did GM ever kill Brunell this way? Did he ask Gibbs to give his pay check back 2 weeks ago for that joke of an effort against the Pats, or for his over all performance over the coarse of the last 4 seasons? Between the 2 of them they have cost the organazation enough money, and failure to say Brandon Lloyd who.
