No, they need a star at one position. Quarterback. And they're not even close to having a player capable of being a star on the roster...Nobody is saying they need stars at every position but right now, on offense, they have stars at two positions: RB and slot receiver. That's it. Kalil is a high draft pick but he's not a star. Rudolph isn't a star. Nobody else is even close to being a star.

Re: Christian Ponder being held back
better then Lloyd. Ponder just has no idea how to get the ball to him. That and Brady has about 5 minutes to look for him.[/quote]

Since Simpson's rookie year in 2008:
Simpson: 78 Rec. 1099 yards, 4 TDs
Lloyd: 216 Rec. 3302 yards, 19 TDs, 1 Pro Bowl appearance, 2nd team All-Pro in 2010.
Lloyd's 2010 season alone outproduced Simpson's whole career combined.[/quote]
And who does Lloyd have throwing to him?

Right now? Tom Brady.
Since 2008: It's mainly been Kyle Orton, first with the Bears and then in Denver.
Re: Christian Ponder being held back
You do know Lloyd's best season was with Kyle friggen Orton? Lloyd is better then Simpson on a consistent basis, there is no argument for it.PurpleKoolaid wrote: And who does Lloyd have throwing to him?
Whenever i step outside, somebody claims to see the light
It seems to me that all of us have lost our patience.

And nobody thinks that there just might

Re: Christian Ponder being held back
Sometime I will learn to read before I just make quick posts. I thought the Pats drafted Lloyd and hes been there since.80 PurplePride 84 wrote: Brady. But this is his 1st year with him.
In that span I posted he had Rex Grossman, Jay Cutler, Kyle Orton, Tim Tebow and Sam Bradford(who was hurt most of Lloyd's time there last year. So add Kellen Clemens and Tom Brandstater.)
That 2010 season was with Orton too. Not Cutler or Brady.
Simpson had Carson Palmer when he was good and Andy Dalton so it's not like he had a buncha scrubs throwing him the ball either.
