But once word came down shortly after 8 p.m. ET that
there was a new name to add to the list -- big-play receiver Brandon Lloyd
-- the outlook was drastically altered. Lloyd is the playmaking receiver the
offense has been missing, not to mention a big name, which always adds a layer
of excitement for those following the team.
The addition of Lloyd was the exclamation point to the
team's busy opening five-day stretch of free agency, from which one conclusion
can be drawn: Bill Belichick isn't messing around.
And something tells us he's not done yet. More…
Lloyd could really help a lot of fantasy teams this season. |
Shacks’
Take: This is an intriguing
pairing. Lloyd is an excellent deep
threat with amazing hands. Om Brady
throws a pretty good deep ball so this could work nicely. Brandon Lloyd also enjoyed a stellar season
working in new/old Patriots offensive coordinator Josh McDaniels’ offense in
Denver so he will have a clear comfort level with what the offense
requires.
Early on I would consider Lloyd a definite top 25 WR
with the potential to sneak into the top 10 depending on the chemistry he
develops with Brady. Love this move for
both sides and I’ll definitely look to add Lloyd to my teams if the price is
right.
