Laron Landry - Redskin for life?

Not sure what you're really saying about Landry here? He will never be anything more than a poor man's Roy Williams. But I agree with you in the sense he's neither the sickness nor the cure. We need a top 5 free safety to be our brains in the secondary and challenge QBs. Landry btw has neither the intelligence nor the skill to be that guy.

The shut-down corner would be gravy but FS is the bigger need by far.It's a three safety league now. We have one. And possibly zero at this time next year.

I think Dejon Gomes is still years away, but could project to be a starter.

Atogwe was a classic Redskins FA mistake. I think they could go either way with him next year, but I'm certain he won't be here in 2013.

I think Gomes will stick. You're asking a lot out of anyone to cover Gronkowski with Brady being QB.

He didnt get a chance to ever get 100% this year.

We NEED to resign Landry theres no doubt.
If we let him go WHOEVER we start there next year will be a DOWNGRADE... I guarentee it... if you think im wrong tell me who you have as our starter.. a rookie?... we have so many offensive issues letting him go and adding saftey to our draft needs is ludacris.

yesterday i was on rotoworld they said that we are most likely signing him to the franchise tag to give him one more year to prove himself.

So it appears Landry is once again headed to IR?

I think he's toast now. I mean what's his value to the team. If it comes down to rewarding Fletcher with a nice deal and letting Landry walk, I'm sure the Org is prepared to do that.

Related, D.Gomes has to step up as a part of that equation.

Obviously shockwave therapy and platelet-rich plasma treatments didn't work. Landry needs to go ahead and have surgery so that he can heal and at last put this injury behind him. You can't fault Mike Shanahan and Jim Haslett for electing to place him on injured reserve for the second straight year. He was prone for IR anyway because he didn't have the surgery after last year. Now, I'm thinking that it's a must that Landry has to have the surgery other wise his Achilles tendon will never mend.

If he has the surgery before the season ends, he can be 100% by mini camp.

The franchise tag for a safety is fairly expensive. landrys not worth it.

both rich campbell and chris russell have said that, based on information provided by team sources, there is no chance we bring laron landry back in any capacity at any price. Aside from his injury history, his relationship with the team (and visa versa) is even worse than Carlos Rogers' was. We arent interested in him. He's not interested in us.

He had alot of potential, but he was never really that good. He made alot of big plays, but he missed alot too, due to his always wanting to make a "highlight hit." his condition is chronic and the only way he'll get better is if he has surgery, which he has declined to do (depsite the teams urging) so far. Even if he had the microtear surgery, its highly likely that he'd be effective any time soon anyways. Good riddance.

Gomes and Doughty starting the rest of the season

Well well well...Landry was basically a bust (for us anyway) after all. I'm absolutely fine w/ cutting him even if he succeeds elsewhere.
