I am ok with that too, didn't say I wasn't. The main thing is to look at all possibilities, and try to do the best thing for the Skins as a whole team. That means that no player short of Orakpo is completely off limits to trade possibilities. Most scenarios won't play out, but if it improves our OL it ought to be evaluated thoroughly.

I agree with that. In that case, I would offer Davis or Cooley to them before Dirty 30.

I think, in the case of Cooley, I would want more than just the OT, but maybe not, IF as you say Shanahan thinks the guy is the perfect fit. The thing is, GW would probably push and help get the trade through for Landry (and use him to his best potential, which would irk some of us to no end), but the Saints have Shockey, and they wouldn't look at Cooley/Davs as a need or worth the trade.

And I think Landry wouldn't mind leaving, whereas Cooley would. Not that this should be a deal-breaker, but typically teams have traded players that they were not too happy with (but are still talented).

Landry would, I believe, be on the first train outta here if he could go work for GW again.

New Orleans Saints - LaRon Landry

Quote:
Q: You played your first year under Gregg Williams. What can you tell us you learned from him?


LaRon Landry: “He’s going to get everybody to play together and play to the best of their ability. He’s like a perfectionist and one thing he’s going to do is he’s going to blitz you. You don’t know where it’s coming from. That’s one thing I like about his defense.”


Q: How much fun did you have playing for him?

LaRon Landry: “Most definitely. I loved it. He’s one of my favorite coaches.”

....

Q: Being a local guy, do you feel good for the Saints?

LaRon Landry: “Yes, growing up in New Orleans, I’ve always been a Saints fan. Watching those guys win and dealing with what we’re going through right now and not having such a great season, combined with the hometown team winning. I’m happy to play those guys this week to play an 11-0 team and look for this week being their first loss.”

Re: Time to Build an Offensive Line

Man screw Landry in his ear. He isn't squat and everyone knows it. Come on really?! Landry is no different than the rest of the bag nasties on the D.

"Yeah, so and so is this. So and so is that." My logic says they're a 4-12 D. These guys are a bunch of bums, and they're going to be a bunch of effing bums until they start winning again! Because a winner is the opposite of a bum. That's my yard stick and these boys don't measure up.

Tell me Shanny wouldn't trade any of these guys, even Orakpo!? CP is some how a crown jewel to some fans, yet Shanny traded his ass.

One transaction epitomizes the difference between the incoming regime and the one that's still unemployed. Or has cousin Vinny found work yet? Some how I forgot to care.

Let me ask you guys a question. Does Landry, Hanesworth, or Orakpo play OT?

I can name other members of other team's O-line. Can other team's fans say the same for ours? No! Why? Any half-wit schmuck sucking his thumb knows that one.
