Landry is MIA

Just curious when/where Landry has said he's unhappy at FS or feels he's underutilized at FS or something to that effect? I've only heard that comment from fans and it still surprises a bit cuz Laron was at the top of his college game (LSU) as FS. What made him the best overall defensive player in that draft (at the time) was his ability to almost totally shut down opposing offenses air assault.

...maybe he's been a little bit of a disappointment in that regard but personally I think this is his breakout year...PB baby.

It is called offseason speculation, another Mike Florio stab against the Redskins, writers have nothing else to write, etc., etc. I was reading Florio's article on this, I swear he's such a prick. Is he a Cowboys fan? Shoot, Mosely from ESPN who used to write for a Dallas newspaper gives our team less crap.

Damn, I wish people would start rumors about teams we have to play against. Personally I heard that DeMarcus Ware, Tony Romo, and Jason Witten all want out of Dallas. And Donovan is tired of the city of brotherly shove. So is Westbrook thats why he's faking an injury, to stay away from that city for as long as he can. And oh yeah Eli doesn't like the idea that he can't have an unregistered handgun, plus he doesn't like the New York weather so he's requesting a trade to San Diego.

Putting it on twitter in just a second and I already sent a text to the AP :)

novis for new fs, landry is too lazy

If he's preparing on his own and knows what he needs to get done, no big deal. Sucks that he's really the only guy not there though; he seems like a guy that keeps himself in shape so I'm not too worried about that. You should have the respect to respond to your coach though.

Landry is a dumbass and a pure 100% idiot. If the coach calls you call him back. It's called respect. If you don't show up to OTA'S I don't have a problem with that. But not calling back the head coach?? WTF??

FO aside, this is precisely why we're a mediocre team. If you get a call from your employer, take it or return it to communicate you will/will not participate. It's called being a professional. It's that simple.

As for others on this thread who are in the know about Landry's 5-day-week workout, well, rock on that he's hitting the treadmill with other dudes, but it's not the same. He needs to be with his teammates who are taking the time and initiative to show up, to build a team, camaraderie, chemistry, mindset.

And we're not talking about a $60k employee ditching calls from HR during a sick day, we're talking multi-millionaires with months off from the office. And yes, I know their bodies take a pounding...

Sorry, Landry gets no pass from me, and I can give a rat's ass how Springs and ST used to handle this. I came up during the glory years, when Redskins with Super Bowl rings conducted their own voluntary workouts often b/4 Joe Gibbs even got out of bed. It worked out for them.

Still, a no show

I agree 100% that this is a big reason why the Skins are a mediocre team. You mention that he was contacted by his employer and in the Skin's case this is only sort of true. With the Skins, the players see themselves as working for DS not the head coach. Therein lies the problem. The Skin's chain of command is screwed up and until its fixed, and the players think they are working for the head coach, this team will be disfunctional and mediocre. I bet he wouldnt ignore a call from DS.
