Man people really took to the LB comment and ran with it huh.

What he also said was he's going to have more LB-like responsibilities at safety this year (more in the box stuff), but he's definitely not going to be playing LB.

Re: 2010 NFL Off-Season Rumors and Reports (Week 8)
 

Well if he wouldn't have said that he may even line up at the LB position sometimes there wouldn't be any discussion about it. The reason he's had to clarify it is because of the way he originally said it. I personally just thought it was great that we'd be seeing some different looks to throw the offense off. Nobody has said Landry would play LB this year instead of Safety.

That's where he belongs but I am really worried about the FS position.

I'd like to see if Kareem Moore could handle it.

[quote=celts32;698562]That's where he belongs but I am really worried about the FS position.[/quote]

Agreed. We have no one on the roster who is a playmaker/ballhawk guy. Moore is not that guy, which is why signing Sharper would've been a good move. Hopefully someone gets cut or we make a trade because having Moore at FS is a weakness.

[quote=53Fan;698575]I'd like to see if Kareem Moore could handle it.[/quote]

Me too!! I've been saying this every time I saw someone list FS as a draft need. I think Moore has a good chance of getting the job.

I thought he played well in the time he got. What makes you say he's a weakness? I'm not saying he's all pro material but I don't recall him making any glaring mistakes other than the stripped INT, which was a great play by Meechum.

No he's not a bad player, but I think he's no more than a quality backup FS. He's a good hitter, but he's average in coverage, speed, and he hasn't made any memorable plays (besides the INT that got stripped). I hope he proves me wrong, but I'd bet Moore wouldn't be considered a starter on 31 other teams. IMO Moore is a good backup, but if he impresses during traing camp I'll admit I was wrong

Yup, but at the lowest level, so no draft picks are lost if we sign him.

Re: 2010 NFL Off-Season Rumors and Reports (Week 8)
 

^ Doesn't he have some injury issues? Was it only a dislocated shoulder?

[quote=53Fan;698625]^ Doesn't he have some injury issues? Was it only a dislocated shoulder?[/quote]

I'm not sure about injury, but I think teams have waited on him because he is going to become an unrestricted free agent. I don't know the details, but it is advantageous for teams to wait until this happens than trying to get him now.

Sounds to me like this is a depth move. No way a back up from the Rams could be their answer to LT.

May mean they are counting on Free. I am ok with that.

Well, the Barron trade means two things. One, Flozell isn't returning to Dallas. And two, the Cowboys are now out of the market for other OTs such as Jammal Brown

McIntosh is hoping to "jump-start" negotiations on an extension, which would seem to indicate the Redskins have been less than eager to talk about a long-term deal. McIntosh is moving to inside linebacker in Jim Haslett's new 3-4 scheme.

Honestly, i dont know if i'd be happy if we gave up much of anything for Jamaal Brown now - a 4th or 5th rounder would be ok with me, but thats about it. I'd be much more open to signing Adams if we brought in anyone.

Re: 2010 NFL Off-Season Rumors and Reports (Week 8)
 

I still think we should trade for Jammal Brown and put him at LT and Williams at RT, and I think we should go after Adalius Thomas, because who else will start at the other OLB position opposite Orakpo

Re: 2010 NFL Off-Season Rumors and Reports (Week 8)
 

If Williams has a hiccup at camp I would imagine we would start looking again, but right now, I imagine MS wants to see what he got for DS' 30 million dollars (or whatever it will be)
