Re: Latest from JLC: The lying game
Mark it down: If we have to spend another year with Griffin and Salave'a in the middle with nobody other than Golston and Montgomery backing them up, we'll be gored up the middle from the very first carry, week in and week out.
The season will be over before it starts. |

Re: Latest from JLC: The lying game
There is no way this organization will draft a defensive lineman. It's just not attractive and exciting enough of a position to make the kind of media splash this organization craves.
Although I am 99.99999% certain he will be gone if the Skins stay at 6, if he is available the Skins will draft QB Jamarcus Russell. |

Re: Latest from JLC: The lying game
What's unfortunate is that I think the glitz of the big FA signing for Redskins nation is no longer enough. We're not enamored by free agents as much as we are WINS now. If the front office doesn't see it, then Danny needs to get his hand off his shaft to the thought of signing Calvin Johnson or anyone else we DON'T need. While we might not be coaches, there is one constant that most of the organization hasn't had:
We've been fans since we've been old enough to watch football. We know what works and what doesn't and again, while we're not coaches, many of us are astute observers of the game.

Re: Latest from JLC: The lying game
Besides, if they wanted to make a splash that badly they had plenty of chances to do so in free agency.
I don't see how they'll totally ignore need positions and go after a QB of all things. That just makes no sense at all, even for this front office. |

Defensive End is an incredibly sexy position. It doesn't get much better than sacking the QB, it's like baseball's homerun. Maybe you were speaking about DT. But even that, I don't see it. A stud DT is a pretty splashy move. Warren Sapp in his prime ring any bells? And there's no way we'll draft a QB. That's just ridiculous.

All I'm saying is there's no denying it's a definite area of pressing need. So if we end up taking a guy like Landry and don't draft any D-lineman, do you not agree we have to take more steps to address the position? We'd have to get a guy after the June 1st cuts (maybe a Kris Jenkins).

Re: Latest from JLC: The lying game
Not so fast. It depends how they really feel about Campbell. The quarterback position dwarfs all others by comparison and it is the one position we have not had a real player at forever. If Campbell pans out and we have Russell in the fold and he shows signs we could trade him for a LOT of draft picks. We might suffer for it next year but shoring up the QB position ala NE and Indy should be priority number one for the health and future of this franchise. It would be highly controversial but if they have serious doubts about Campbell then drafting a QB if he falls is not crazy but thinking ahead. If they are really confident in Campbell there is zero need and they won't do it unless we don't get any acceptable offers for the pick in terms of value. We must all face the fact that if Campbell doesn't pan out we are sunk. I for one think we should always draft BPA until we KNOW we have a real QB.

Re: Latest from JLC: The lying game
What about Joe Thomas from Wisconsin, he is amazing no matter what, even though I am a Badger fan.

Re: Latest from JLC: The lying game
I'll second that! Drugs kill brain cells, not any left on that statement.

If Ian Scott is available now, why haven't they snatched him up? They've shown interest in every other aspect of defense (linebacker and secondary) other than the defensive line. That's why I'm starting to have this feeling that maybe they're not even considering DE or DT. Maybe they felt like last year's drafting of Golston and Montgomery, along with the signing of Andre Carter shored up any weaknesses at the front four. The more I hear about Landry, the less irate I feel like I would be if we actually drafted him -- but that's assuming they pick up a defensive tackle or end somehow, somewhere. I'd be fitted for a straight-jacket if they completely ignore the front four and went for Landry then did something really stupid and pulled off a trade for an offensive guard or something. |
