I Now Hate Laron Landry!!!

[tomson75]

You took an outstanding safety, and the best player available.

It was the right pick.

The problem is.....a ton of needs....not enough picks.

No, it wasn't. He might have been the best player available, but the skins are in no postions to draft BPA. They should have taken JA, or even better, traded down for more picks.

You must be a cowboys fan in disguise. Fake fan

Why is he a fake fan? Because he don't smear himself with ketchup and mustard and drink all the stale koolaid that the Midget and St. Gibbs serve to all you knuckleheads?


:laugh2:

REAL Commanders fans never acknowledge what everybody already knows to be true. They say stuff like DE is an overated position in their scheme, and Campbell had a better year than Tony Romo, and that Gibbs isn't so old and so out of it that he checks his stuffed animals for genitalia.

since you are obviously not a fan of our team, ill help you out. In GW's system, you dont need top talent on the defensive line, it is more important to have good lb's. Example, just look at our past defenses under GW that were top 10, and tell me who was on those lines. NO ONE. The main part for our lineman is to know their assignment, and fill their lane.

Now look at last year. Our problem was with our MLB and WLB. First of all, ill start with marshall in the middle. The guy doesn't know how to shed blockers, and was constantly getting pushed around in the middle, allowing the constant 6 yard runs that kept runs going. Now, look at holdman at the weakside. The guy is just flat out bad. Do you really think it is a coincidence that in the 2 years he has been named a starter, our run defense has dropped drastically?

I think bigger upgrades then the Dline were the ones we now have at linebacker. Fletcher in the middle (regardless of age) is a huge upgrade. He is a solid player, who hasnt missed a game in his entire career. He knows how to read defenses and get to the ball (hence why he has over 150 tackles for 3 straight years)

Then at weakside, we have either McIntosh or Marshal, either of which will be a big upgrade.

So while an upgrade on the dline would have obviously helped, I think a bigger upgrade for us is at the LB position, because GW relies on them

This post makes absolutely no sense. You talk as if your Dline plays no part in your defensive scheme. You honestly think Fletcher is the cure all?
Nice, fluffy post.

They also took Dallas Sartz as their 2nd pick which came in the 5th round, so they drafted a Landry and a Dallas. Also how ridiculous is it that they didn't have another pick until the 5th round.

blah, blah, blah

sorry guy, that wimpy blitz has been figured out

I can't believe the Commanders fan is the only one making sense in this thread. I'll post here what I must have posted a thousand times in the chat room.

Landry can turn out to be an all-pro DB and it wouldn't matter. Hell, every single member of the Commanders secondary can turn out to be all-pro and it still will not matter. In this league, if you can not stop the run or rush the passer, YOU WILL LOSE!!! It's that simple. And right now, the Commanders are not capable of doing either of those two things. They couldn't do it last year and have not done nearly enough this offseason to address the problem.

I know some of y'all had a real love affair with Landry and I do think he can end up being a damn good player in the NFL. It doesn't change the fact that the Commanders NEEDED to draft a Defensive Lineman with the #6 pick and they drafted a freaking Safety. A huge misstep by Washington in the first round.

The Skins Dline is swiss cheese. Good luck with that this year.

I wanted him damnit. I don't hate him...not yet. Lets see if he talks trash or really starts to embrace being a 'skin. If he keeps his mouth shut and gets his paycheck and does whatever, I will be cool about it.

 

[phillycard]

as opposed to loving him before at LSU and if the Cowboys would have somehow managed to land him?

 

[justcheckinuout]

You guys will have no problems with us this season.

We should've addressed our Dline but took a stinking safety instead.:bang2:

Your boy Romo will have a minimum of ten seconds to scan the field. Our Dline is old and flat out sucks.

As much as I hate to say/admit this: Enjoy your two wins vs my Skins this season.

Interesting-Are you a Cowboys fan with a Cooley avatar?
