I've been saying this all year. Landry is a liability at FS. He makes good aggressive plays against the run when lined up near the line of scrimmage. I don't know that Moore has Landry's range, but I can't imagine that he's any more undisciplined. For a safety that we spent a #6 choice, Landry has been a major disappointment.

regardless of the down by contact Moore needs to have better control of that ball, yes he's trying to make a play, but once it clogs up he's gotta protect the ball. Still unbelievable bounces that cost us the game.

Can I lay the SmackDown on Moss for taking a Campbell "51" audible (slant route) and running a fade anyway?

We know you can (and did) beat the corner on that route, but your quarterback didn't call the play in the void to the inside so that you could just run your own thing. I'm sorry, but put Marko Mitchell in there, and the Redskins get a 7-8 yard completion at worst.

I second your smack down.

Landry is clearly out of position, but still. How can you give up a long TD in prevent? WTF?

Whatever--this game was pretty amazing. I didn't think we could find new and creative ways to lose, but I was wrong. Boy was I wrong.

The second that insane Kareem Moore play happened, I knew we were going to lose. That's pretty sad.

Glad to see the kids finally having an impact, and the o-line play is just an amazing tribute to Buges. But wow. I thought I didn't have any balls left to kick the way this season has been going, but I was wrong. Ouch.

After seeing these past couple of games, how do you feel about drafting another S? I think we could draft OL in the third now and be OK another year and then take OT first round.

How do we get that third round pick though?

Argh. You're right.

If Eric Berry is still on the board during our 1st round pick, I would take him in a heartbeat.

Negative ghostrider...we've seen how good our offense can be with a good line, and we are in desperate need of a franchise tackle. We've already used a lot of resources in the defense, and a good FO (that's the key, a good FO) should be able to find a good FS in the later rounds or free agency. However, you cannot pass up a franchise tackle like Okung.

How about a better tackle in FA than Heyer? I think that's something we can address in FA and then go second round. With our record, I think there are maybe two players in college who would put our defense as one of the best we've seen in years.

Or or, how 'bout we draft a tackle in the first round and put him at RT just like what the Ravens did for Oher (and then move him to LT later on).

GTripp0012 · 12-06-2009, 06:32 PM

I think we can wait as far as the second round to address the OL, but with that said, it'd be stupid to pass up one of the sure things at OT for either a QB or a LB.

Eric Berry, on the other hand...

Mark my words as far as the draft goes the skins will draft someone to compliment Devin Thomas's ablility

Yes, a franchise tackle will compliment Devin Thoma very well.
