I'm ALL FOR drafting Landry, consequenses be damned. Imagine being an oposing WR who has to go over the middle. DRAFT LANDRY! LET THE DOGS OUT!

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

Can we get back to talking about football? I think the Landry question is one of the most interesting topics to discuss regarding the upcoming draft. It seems like a move that is outside of the box but that is exactly why I like it. Plus, if it is even an option in the minds of the Redskins decision makers, it is flying completely under the radar.

It would be splashy and a bit "controversial" and that's exactly why I don't like it. Sometimes it doesn't hurt to just be boring and go for the conventional choice. We always try to make the front page top fold headline, but we don't need to be.

If we trade down and Landry is one our picks that's fine, but I don't think we're better off picking him #6 and passing on D-Line help

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

This is a repost from me from the Vinny thread, but it's on topic here:

I heard the Falcons are high on LaRon Landry. If rumors started floating that we were targeting Landry as well, Atlanta may come off one of their second round picks to swap first round picks with us. 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...

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

Landry is something special. Having both of those guys would be awesome! Not likely with us signing Omar and PP coming back from the injury. The guy is an excellent cover Safety which would allow us to blitz Sean Taylor more. Landry is a ball hawk. We need guys who are going to create and make big plays on defense. Remember that thing called a turnover??? After last year I'm not sure if we do..........

Yeah, it's outside of the box, and yeah he could be a great safety... but honestly ask yourself what's the best choice to win football games. I think our DL is so sub-par right now.

I think it was beem earlier who said that last year wasn't a fluke... the DL is just getting old. I tend to agree with him. maybe we should start investing draft picks on a DL, maybe trade down and get a couple. Who knows, but I really don't want to go into next season with the same DL, somethings has to change.

Believe me, thinking about Taylor with Landry gives me the chills, it would be fun to watch... but it won't win as many games when the QB has all day long in the pocket.

LOL!

I don't know if there's a thread heaven, but if there is, I hope that this thread makes it there.

Nothing beats a thread featuring the squawk avatar and Lancaster Gangstas in the same thread.

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

Oh, I dont think we should draft Landry. If we had a 2 draft picks in the first round like N.E. does, then I would seriously consider getting Merriweather back together with S.T. and get a Dline guy or Grubbs.
