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

Hopefully Marcus comes back from his hip surgery okay....

You're probably right. I offered it up soley as hypothetical to see what others might think. My major concern with that suggestion would be Marshall's ability (or lack thereof) in coverage.

Yeah, it would be fun to watch them knock some heads against a run-heavy team and/or short passes over the middle. But as you said, Marshall would probably struggle in a big way in coverage.
