The Facts:
Lloyd was released by the Washington Redskins, ending his disappointing stay with the team. The Redskins traded two draft picks to the San Francisco 49ers to acquire Lloyd before the 2006 season. They then signed him to a long-term contract that included $10 million in guaranteed money.

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
Unfortunately for all involved, Lloyd caught only 25 passes with no touchdowns in two seasons with the Redskins. His totals were two catches for 14 yards last season, when he broke his collarbone in November. ... Lloyd already had fallen out of favor with the team because of his work ethic and lack of productivity, but new HC Jim Zorn was said to at least be open to discussing the wideout's return as recently as last week. ... Meanwhile, as noted in a
previous item, the Skins -- assuming they can't convince the Bengals to trade Chad Johnson -- are said to be interested in Denver's Javon Walker and Oakland's Jerry Porter.
