I agree with the original post on this thread.

And those two INTs were nearly two years ago in a game that we lost anyway.

He commits bonehead personal fouls and would rather try to blow someone up than make a sound tackle. I must say though, given his massive talents, I put his lack of development on coaching mostly.

Re: Laron Landry!?

I don't know how or why it started clicking, but Reed Doughty is playing some really good ball right now. Outside of Fletcher, he has been our most consistent tackler. I don't know what Landry's deal is? I think that he has tremendous talent but as was stated earlier in this thread, he really misses a lot of tackles which could save us some yards.

I read Taylor Mays could play linebacker as well as safety. Is there any truth to this?

As much as Sean Taylor could, it would be wasting his talents though. It would be like playing Orakpo at LB....oh wait.....nevermind. USC has played him as a centerfielder, much like we do Landry. He has asked to play closer to the line so he could make more plays and Carroll has said with the graduation of 4 LB's last year he would try to oblige him, but he is a big, fast, punishing safety at around 226-230 and that is where he does the most good. It seems like that position takes a lot of talent, but unfortunately for the player, takes you out of a lot of highlights. Unless you ARE Sean Taylor.

Re: Laron Landry!?

I think that is what is wrong with LaRon he is trying to hard to fill ST's shoes but it will never happen ST was a rare once every 10-15 years freakish athlete.

Re: Laron Landry!?

At this point you have to figure that Landry kind of is who he is right? Tremendous athlete, but I'm start to give up that he's going to significantly develop at a later point.

Re: Laron Landry!?

I think the problem with Landry is that he wants to be in the highlight reels, this guy has his own agenda, like not showing to OTA's. During the off season I would trade him and use that pick on Taylor Mays who could be the next Sean Taylor.

Dude don't we need to worry about drafting O-Lineman next draft. Laron is the least of our worrys right now.

If you trade Landry you would still have our 2010 draft pick and the another 1st rounder for Landry which I would use to get Mays. Landry to me is a disappointment and other one of those "me first" type players.

See that's the problem everyone wants to be the "next" Sean Taylor. Why not be the first "LaRon Landry?"
