Re: It's Landry!
I bet Pastabelly will be sick after writing such a great review about a redskin...

"And how about the Washington Redskins, who just about elevated redundancy to an art form, selecting LSU safety LaRon Landry, arguably the draft's top defender, with the No. 6 overall pick? Landry is a potentially brilliant player but, even with the resurgence of the safety position in the NFL, he may have been a luxury, given that Washington already has safety in Sean Taylor, the fifth overall pick in 2004. Washington is the first team to use two top-10 picks on safeties, a fact that mattered little to Landry. "We should be a killer combination," Landry told ESPN.com by phone from his parents' home in Metairie, La. "I watched a lot of when he was in college, at Miami, although I haven't seen a lot of him in the pros. But he's one of the guys I've tried to emulate during my own career. On my visit with the Redskins, I met with (defensive coordinator) Gregg Williams. He seemed like a perfectionist, but also a real smart guy, so he'll figure out a way to use both of us. I'm not worried about us being the same kind of player." " ESPN.com - NFL/DRAFT07 - Pasquarelli: Past drafts shape first round

Re: It's Landry!
I was hoping to address the needs of our D-line but I can certainly live with this pick. Once Gibbs said that they would take the best player available instead of plugging holes I knew they would go with Landry.

Re: It's Landry!
It's a good thing we've got a couple of great tackling safeties. With our defensive line the way it is, we're going to need them.

Re: It's Landry!
Its not a pick that will have an impact any time soon. Without a D line and a pass rush the D backs cant really be evaluated.
