Should the Redskins consider LSU Safety Laron Landry with the 6th overall pick

That would put us in the 8th spot, where we could still get one of the elite D-lineman in the draft....

I think this post got lost in the mix, but I like the thought here... the only problem I see is that the Vikings dont seem to be taking any interest in him and we certainly don't need him, so the Falcons should probably be content not trading up to get him...

They just lost kearny, so I don't think they would be against taking a d-lineman if they gamble and lose, and since their secondary is not exactly the weakness on that team... I see them addressing their front 7, or even an offensive player in their draft if landry is gone. I just think if he's there at 6, he'll probably be there at 8...
