Re: London Fletcher = madman

Fletcher may be the best acquisition the Skins have made on defense since trading for Ken Houston 35 years ago. I'll give Gibbs and the FO props for nearly every player acquisition on the defensive side of the ball (Archuleta aside):

FA Starters:
Daniels
Carter
Griffin
Fletcher
Washington
Springs/Smoot

Drafted Starters:
Montgomery/Golston
McIntosh
Taylor
Rogers
Landry

That is one heck of a good percentage considering only one outright bust in Archuleta. Kudos to Gibbs/Snyder/Cerrato and anyone else evaluating the defensive talent we've brought in.

Great post.

In the Era of Gibbs I, some would belittle JG because Bobby Beatheard (Sp?) and then Charlie Casserly picked the players.


You look at those acquisitions, and you have the foundation of a group that can really do something.

J-Dawg.

Fletcher, McIntire, and Taylor are definately crazy good and I think Landry is about as good as anyone has the right to expect at this point. Landry been quiet but I haven't noticed anyone hurting us long-- he's apparently shutting some people down. I'm also impressed by Montgomery. He made a one armed tackle while being blocked last Sunday that I'm still thinking about. I can't even remember the name of that big tackle people wanted us to draft a year ago. Also, I notice that McIntire is having a better season than Briggs. Sometimes moves you don't make are as good as those you do.
