NFL Trade Rumors: Eddie Royal Available Too

DENVER - SEPTEMBER 19:  Head coach Josh McDaniels of the Denver Broncos talks with wide receiver Eddie Royal #19 during a timeout in NFL action against the Seattle Seahawks at INVESCO Field at Mile High on September 19 2010 in Denver Colorado.  (Photo by Justin Edmonds/Getty Images)

As the Denver Broncos give Tim Tebow his audition, they are systematically dismantling the rest of the team, particularly the parts built by former head coach Josh McDaniels. Today, ESPN's Adam Schefter revealed that Denver is also willing to trade wide receiver and return man Eddie Royal in addition to wide receiver Brandon Lloyd

Royal was there before Josh McDaniels arrived. Royal was part of that forgettable 2008 class of wide receivers, which including Donnie Avery. Like Avery, Royal was a second round pick, known more for his speed than anything else. 

Last year, Royal caught 59 passes for a total 627 yards and three touchdowns. This year he has four receptions for 51 yards. 

He might have more value as a kick and punt return man, even though his results in that department were never much to brag about. He's been replaced by Quan Cosby as Denver's return man this year. For the Rams, Lloyd would bring the biggest potential impact.

Lloyd sucks

If it weren't for his current injury

I’d say “what the hell, just bring in everyone from the McDaniels offense that we can”

by King Sam Rules! on Oct 16, 2011 10:05 AM CDT via mobile reply actions  

bring in lloyd

or do nothing. royal isn’t worth giving away draft picks right now, that’s like another MSW quality-wise.
espn just reported that patriots and rams are interested in lloyd and mortensen twittered “deal with patriots won’t work”. seems promising, just do it billy.

Lloyd would be the smart choice (although I'm not a huge fan)

Royal would out and out piss me off, but I see them going that route. I don’t know why, but I see it happening.

by HomerForTheRams on Oct 16, 2011 10:13 AM CDT reply actions  

yeah

that’s what i thought. like the fact that DX ist starting next to Gibson though!
lets go with some playmaker-ability and some young guys that are hungry.
that might give us a chance.

by daniell on Oct 16, 2011 11:08 AM CDT up reply actions  

nah, not gibson

i thought about jabara on that one;)

by daniell on Oct 16, 2011 11:15 AM CDT up reply actions  

Is Jabara starting somewhere?

I thought Chamberlain was the big Suprise at starter?

by King Sam Rules! on Oct 16, 2011 11:18 AM CDT via mobile up reply actions  

chamberlain is probably starting

but first time that jabara is active i think. hopefully he gets some play-time.

by daniell on Oct 16, 2011 11:20 AM CDT up reply actions  

Hopefully Brandon Marshall pisses of the Dolpfins.

I am unaware of his contract, but he is someone I would love to try and trade for or purse for next year. He would get all kinds of attention in St. Louis with Sam throwing him the ball the majority of the time.

Pass

This guy has too much bagage.

by RWRAMS28 on Oct 16, 2011 10:47 AM CDT up reply actions  

He does have baggage

But he can play. 4 Pillar WR’s aren’t doing shit for us.

by ramsrule on Oct 16, 2011 11:08 AM CDT up reply actions  

Neither

are the 4 pillar OL, LB, DL, LB ect. I just don’t like the guys who have the play when they feel like it attitude.With the team in the state it is a player with questionable character could actually make it worse. The other thing is McD sent him packing in Denver so I don’t see him coming in.

3k, Im'ma go ahead and start the "block jswirb" petition

He has been given countless public reminders by admins to stop with the blatant insulting comments that add nothing to the conversation (something you personally reprimanded Mark Jamillo for yesterday) and to quit with the all caps, he has listened to neither. He is clearly here for the same purpose RamChop was, to stir up venom and find fights, and at the least needs some kind of suspension

by King Sam Rules! on Oct 16, 2011 11:17 AM CDT via mobile up reply actions  

to be fair KSR?

 He didn’t antagonize anyone with the last comment. I understand that he’s done that in the past, but I’m a lenient guy ESPECIALLY when it comes to opinion. I would say this – I’d like for people to tone down the personal rhetoric with each other. It doesn’t help when he doesn’t post something personal but is called a douchebag, insinuated not to be a fan and called a fool (by you) in three comments.
 Why not just extend a hand and reset? Or ignore if you don’t agree with his opinions?

My issue tends to be that it adds nothing

We get it, Spags is incompetent and can’t do anything right. As well, don’t be insisting you know football, and then ask us questions about really well known players.

by King Sam Rules! on Oct 16, 2011 11:37 AM CDT via mobile up reply actions  

that's a pretty high bar to set, though

that every comment has to “add something”. Who’s the arbiter of that?

Also, that's kinda weak to say "well he didnt antagonize someone that time"

If that’s how it’s gonna be, then expect a comment or thread from me every time he does if we’re gonna judge everything based on the last comment made

by King Sam Rules! on Oct 16, 2011 11:39 AM CDT via mobile up reply actions  

I'm in, King Sam Rules!

I’ve just about given up on this site because of “jswirdo” !

Go RAMs !!!

by VETT on Oct 17, 2011 2:20 AM CDT up reply actions  

thats not true i offer my opinions that other just don'y agrre with

yet there are many that do …i curse no one ,,,or say anything mean toward them
when i pose a question people don’t like they get unhappy
i have been staying on topic …which has been trades
i don’t believe there will be any….if others do fine don’t put me down
if you feel the fo is competent and has don a fine job …thats your opinion
i believe they and spags did not put a pro team on the field and are incompetent
the proof is on the record
its others who are frustrated and venting at me
and i’ll stop with the caps

by jswirb on Oct 16, 2011 11:31 AM CDT reply actions  

And you've been told repeatedly, everyday to stop with the caps

Im gonna just wait a week or two before I believe that one

by King Sam Rules! on Oct 16, 2011 11:34 AM CDT via mobile up reply actions  

Why can't jswirdo take into ....

consideration that our schedule for the 1st half is brutal.
Our coaching is hampered because of a new OC, everyone had to learn a new system on the O in a very short time.
We have quite a few new FAs & 1st and 2nd year rookies who didn’t get a chance to mesh while missing 1000 reps because of the lockout ( no OTAs ).
No one has mentioned that we lost our complete secondary.
ECT.

All this blogger can do is spew out, negatives about our team. We can get the same nonsense from the main stream media, TOM WADDDDLE!

Please 3k, help the reading public in stamping out this diseased mind.

Go RAMs !!!

by VETT on Oct 17, 2011 2:50 AM CDT up reply actions  

i am here as a long time ram fan who

cannot believe this mess and have no where else to vent
as all my buds are 49’ers and chargers fans….too bad if you can’t accept that
and stay on topic and don’t offend me or my opinions

by jswirb on Oct 16, 2011 11:34 AM CDT reply actions  

No to Eddie Royal.

Did anyone like Salas with Pettis?

Go RAMs !!!
