[QUOTE=wilsowilso;423089][quote=Sean"Big Hurt"Taylor;423072]I was wondering what do you guys think about us pursuing him to be our free safety and moving dirty 30 back at strong safety.

You would think that Landry would be well suited to play free safety. Laron certainly seemed to make more plays after he was moved to free safety in the last quarter of the season. He wasn't a turnover machine, but he broke up an awful lot of passes and was able to build up speed to put big hits on opposing wideouts.

But, I swear that I've read that the coaches want Landry to move back to strong safety, in which case we may very well be in the market for a free safety. I like Doughty, but probably he's not fast enough to play FS and I wouldn't be particularly surprised to see him relegated to a reserve role.

If that's the case that they want to move Landry to strong safety, then I wouldn't mind Reggie Smith out of Oklahoma. Or how about Eugene Wilson?

If he stays at FS, how about Madeiu Williams?

I was wondering what do you guys think about us pursuing him to be our free safety and moving dirty 30 back at strong safety. He wll not cost us a lot of money and should be an upgrade over Doughty. He is only 26 years of age. He is 6-2 206 lbs and is a ball hawk. I loved the way Doughty played for us for down the stretch but let's be real he should not have been starting for us (I miss you Sean). I'm interested in what you guys have to say. In Blache's scheme we will be a pressure defense which relies heavily on turnovers like those Bears defenses when he was there. Hamlin would be great in this scheme.

Even if he was a Free agent, He wouldn't be cheap, He did make the probowl this year.

If Landry stays at strong safety then a 6 '2 fast free safety would be great, will Blache be mixing safety's up the same way GW did.

uh, Landry is probably one of the fastest if not the fastest guy on the team...he needs to stay at free safety

Correct me if i'm wrong but LL started the season at SS & after the murder of Sean "the great 1" Taylor he moved to FS

I'm nervous about taking anyone who had their skull cracked. Plus, as has been stated , safety isn't one of our critical needs at the moment.

Landry can be a stud at FS.. His range is crazy and he showed good ball skills in the Seattle game.. I thought Doughty, all though he took some poor tackling angles, played well overall.. We've got more pressing needs on that side of the ball (DT, DE) than to focus on the safety position.
