Re: (Merged Threads) LaVar Arrington and Gregg Williams

Some very revealing thoughts from a personnel director to PFW on the LaVar Arrington situation: “The key to Gregg Williams’ defense is discipline. The only way that unit can win is if everyone is playing 100 percent disciplined football. They have a few core guys — Sean Taylor, Marcus Washington, Cornelius Griffin, Shawn Springs — but the rest are just role players. LaVar’s problem is that he has never been disciplined. He has never been a worker. He’s a street player who doesn’t study. If you surround him with enough good players, he can fit into your defense. But the Redskins’ defensive coaching staff is a very talented group. Greg Blache is an excellent defensive line coach. (DB coach) DeWayne Walker is an outstanding teacher. They are all very good teachers. They preach fundamentals and have their guys in the right position.” And this: “LaVar has been told countless times what he needs to do. Instead, he is running his mouth in the media. Shut your mouth and open up your playbook. Show some awareness. Know where you fit. Know where to line up. When he recognizes he is just a cog in the wheel, not the wheel he has always saw himself as being and thinks he is — he’ll see the field. Until he proves he won’t make any mental mistakes, all he’ll be is the miserable malcontent he has been all year. And to be frank, if he doesn’t shut his mouth, he may be subjected to the treatment Keyshawn Johnson was a couple of years ago.” Johnson was suspended by the Buccaneers for the final six games of the 2003 season for disciplinary reasons.
