You don't become a New England Patriots receiver by running poor routes, which is one of the reasons why the recently acquired Brandon Lloyd is on this list.
Brandon Lloyd, who spent time between Denver and St. Louis last season, has very good body control and plays with good pad level. He's also quick out of his breaks and does a good job of working back to the quarterback. Lloyd can run any route asked of him, including vertical ones, which is why he's so valuable to the Patriots.
