For that very reason I think the Skins chose Landry over Okoye. One lined up against up SEC talent four years straight, and the other played in an inferior conference.

Gibbs specifically said in his interview that he had no idea they had drafted soo many SEC talents recently(A reporter asked him why focus on the SEC). He said the Skins just went for the best player and he now noticed quite a bit of them were SEC.

Take what you like, but this is just fact. He did say that.

The fact is very simple; I believe the SEC produce more NFL ready players.

I seem to think both Blades and Sartx will make this team and contribute on special teams. They both have upside. Look at Golaston and Montgomery. Nobody thought they would make it through camp. Slowly but surely the skins revamping the defense with youth. D now has several young players in Taylor, Landry, Rogers, McIntosh, Blades, Golston, Doughty, Montgomery, and Sartz.

I love his attitude, look foreward to watching his continued development.

Hog1 · 05-02-2007, 01:18 PM

I love a HARD hittting Intimidating Defense. Other teams hate to play against that. Hopefully, that is what we are building

Woo...nice hit.

Looks like we made some GREAT picks this year!

GMScud · 05-02-2007, 02:23 PM

I like that he kept his head up and actually went to wrap up on the tackle as opposed to just throwing his shoulder in for the big hit.

thats what you are suppose to do, for your own safety. Tackle with your head up so you can see what you are hitting. Less chance of getting severely injured or getting a penalty.

I understand that, but a lot of players in today's game when presented with that kind of opportunity for a monster hit will just throw their shoulder into a guys chest. They are looking to make it on "jacked up" rather than make a sure tackle. It's a thing of beauty to see such a powerful hit that also incorporates a perfect form tackle.

blades was a 3 year all conferance selection, big east defensive player of the year, first team all american, number 1 all time in tackles at pitt.......i think this ****er can play, i dont know why he fell or how but i do know he can play this game.....i remember a 5 round pick with alot of similar attributes and stats, zach thomas.....didnt take him long to make his mark...... ill bet right now he is better than rocky the big bust mcintosh but thats just my opinion and i hope it doesnt offend anyone like most of mine do

Kevikazi · 05-02-2007, 08:09 PM

I wouldn't really consider Rocky MacIntosh a bust. He only played and started handful of games. I don't think he's given a chance to prove himself yet.

Pocket$ $traight · 05-03-2007, 01:17 AM

He was the Defensive player of the year in a big time conference. I would expect nothing less.

skinsfan69 · 05-03-2007, 09:45 AM

I loved this pick. He is going to be our starting MLB in 1-2 years.
