I loved the way Doughty played for us for down the stretch but let's be real he should not have been starting for us (I miss you Sean). I'm interested in what you guys have to say. In Blache's scheme we will be a pressure defense which relies heavily on turnovers like those Bears defenses when he was there. Hamlin would be great in this scheme.

Even if he was a Free agent, He wouldn't be cheap, He did make the probowl this year.

If Landry stays at strong safety then a 6 '2 fast free safety would be great, will Blache be mixing safety's up the same way GW did.

uh, Landry is probably one of the fastest if not the fastest guy on the team...he needs to stay at free safety

WilsoWilso is right.

Correct me if i'm wrong but LL started the season at SS & after the murder of Sean "the great 1" Taylor he moved to FS

I'm nervous about taking anyone who had their skull cracked. Plus, as has been stated , safety isn't one of our critical needs at the moment.

Landry can be a stud at FS.. His range is crazy and he showed good ball skills in the Seattle game.. I thought Doughty, all though he took some poor tackling angles, played well overall.. We've got more pressing needs on that side of the ball (DT, DE) than to focus on the safety position.

kens natural position is strong saftey.

If the cowboys let him go I would love to have him in the B & G.

Stuck in TX · 02-17-2008, 12:27 PM

I think we should give Doughty another chance and wait to go after Macho Harris at Virginia Tech later on.

My bad.... all the huge hits made me think he was a safety.

whats the point man really. safety is the least of our needs first of all and any position can be upgraded on paper. so doughty mey not have a high overall in madden so what. If there is one free agent that i would overpay for and you know its going to happen (hopefully not Briggs) I would get Jared Allen. Hes the man, hes a need, hes white. what more could u ask for
