[quote=mooby;888306]LOL. Have you ever been to my neighborhood? Do you think I live in some privileged upper class white neighborhood? Just 'cuz I list my location as NoVa doesn't mean I live in an upper class neighborhood.

The gangster kids in my area don't call where I live Hoodbridge for no reason. Now don't get me wrong, it's a dumb nickname, and I'm not saying I live in SE DC, because I don't, but you should keep your mouth shut when you have no idea what you're talking about.[/quote]

What a coincidence. I was thinking Woodbridge.

Re: Laron Landry - Redskin for life?
 

Instead of posting workout pics Laron needs to post some vids of him running and making cuts. Now that would prove something

U guys crack me up sometimes... But anyways to LL dude what r u doing? Lol

Laron may just want to be ready to sit for about 4 games

Re: Laron Landry - Redskin for life?
 

No doubt in my mind all his injuries are connected to him overtraining. There's no way its healthy or stable for the body to be that big at that size at those proportions.

Everything is smaller then Laron's biceps. Heck at this rate his biceps will be at the end of this video dwarfing VY Canis Major.

He's going to explode out of his body, if he wants to be a body builder then he should focus on that. He's muscles are so tight, I bet he's susceptible to muscle pulls and tears, obviously he thinks he's Superman.

He's probably still trying to become bigger then Brandon Jacobs.

Landry probably curls Banks just for a warmup set.

Landry's pinky laughs at Banks.

Yeah, the dude probably has very little body fat contributing to injuries, achilles tears, etc.

Fletchers replacement is Landry?
 

With the freak of nature that Laron looks like now he looks too big to play safety and he has been at his best when playing in the box anyways. Let's take a year to teach him how to play MLB and keep Kevin barnes back at safety and get a cb who can actually play the slot well.

Really more of a thought experiment than anything but what to see what you all thought.

Landry needs more fat to sustain the hits. I don't think it would work.

Not all thoughts should be a thread. Especially this one.



LL weighs 223. Him playing any sort of LB position is out of the question. No way, no how. He's too small. Lock this puppy up.

Re: Fletchers replacement is Landry?
 

he wouldn't cover any better as an ILB than a safety, so there's still that issue there, and the health thing.

Re: Fletchers replacement is Landry?
 

I had a thought but more of OLB in the 3-4 and rushing more often then not ..

Re: Fletchers replacement is Landry?
 

[quote=Meks;889375]I had a thought but more of OLB in the 3-4 and rushing more often then not ..[/quote]

he'd need to put on a lot of weight... and stay healthy.

Re: Fletchers replacement is Landry?
 

Playing safety like a linebacker, and playing linebacker (even OLB), are two different things.

Thats awesome. Now we need someone to parody BB's pic. Cris Cooley maybe?

Re: Laron Landry - Redskin for life?
 

LaRon Landry training his body is a positive thing. But still, he shouldn't be that big. He has to be taking growth hormone or something. I remember a highlight of Landry being run over by Brandon Jacobs back in 2008. In looking at that recent picture of him all ripped and largely muscular, I doubt if Jacobs can do that to him now.

Re: Laron Landry - Redskin for life?
 

I think there's a difference between being physically strong and football strength. Sean Taylor wasn't ripped, per se, but he was what I would call football strong, in that he could leverage his size, speed, and power to take on players bigger than him or blow up running backs and wideouts. That's what actually made him so special.

Laron Landry tends to blow people up if he's running in a straight line after gaining some momentum. I don't ever remember a running back blowing up Sean Taylor, even if he was stationary at the line of scrimmage.

Taylor was simply one of kind safety.

We can finally get this party started, now that somebody brought the logic.

Re: Fletchers replacement is Landry?
 

But then who's gona replace LL from weeks 3-16 when he gets hurt?

Re: Fletchers replacement is Landry?
 

I don't think LaRon is anywhere close to being bright enough to be a competent replacement of all the London does for this team. Sure, he's built like a monster truck, but that doesn't necessarily translate to him being able to take over that role.

Re: Fletchers replacement is Landry?
 

[quote=CrustyRedskin;889434]But then who's gona replace LL from weeks 3-16 when he gets hurt?[/quote]

Maybe we'll be able to convince London Fletcher to come out of retirement and take his place. He used to be damn good back in the day.

Re: Laron Landry - Redskin for life?
 

If you remember before Taylor's last season he dropped a decent amount of weight. I think he wanted to be faster and cover more ground, and i remember a forum member saying that speed or velosity is more imporant than weight for big collisions. Obvisouly LL feels differently.

Re: Laron Landry - Redskin for life?
 

LaRon Landry without a doubt is only going to run slower. While he can still line up in the box like an extra linebacker, I'm not sure that this Dorian Yates muscularity of his will do him any good on the football field. His injury will not heal. Maybe it will, but sometimes surgery is the best option and he decided to go with what he went through with last off season and it did him or the injury no good.

If he doesn't come back to Washington, I wouldn't be surprised. From 2007 until now, I really wasn't impressed with him at all. If Vinny Cerratto was smart, he would have traded Landry for Ryan Clark. That way, we would have had a real strong safety in the defensive backfield like we did when Clark and Sean Taylor were the sheriff and the deputy.
