Skinsinparadise Posted May 7, 2007 Share Posted May 7, 2007 Archuleta is pushing 30, wasn't a pro bowler, coming off of a major injury. We were optimistic then like any team is pre season. Landry is a different beast, rated by most as the top defender in the draft, runs a 4.35 40. Kiper said he's better than Roy Williams. A couple of draft magazines already say he will be a constant presence in the pro bowl. If resurrecting this thread is supposed to dampen our moods, well it doesn't dampen mine.

onnie007 Posted May 7, 2007 Share Posted May 7, 2007 Yeah, AA was a converted undersized LB. He is now playing as the same guy only he's wearing the costume of a safety. But underneath he is still the same undersized LB he was at ASU who couldn't cover and preferred to stay in the box. Oh and he can lift a lot of weights so he had a great NFL Combine. Next. Let this thread die. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skins&Terps07 Posted May 7, 2007 Share Posted May 7, 2007 On top of his lack of coverage skills, there were rumblings from many that knew AA that he had left it all on the field and was done as an every down player in the league. Landry has yet to play one down in the league and didn't let up ant TDs this year at LSU. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Landry has yet to play one down in the league and didn't let up ant TDs this year at LSU. This is true, and I trusted that the skins were sure his back problems were better, even though he DIDN'T get the surgery the Rams FO wanted him too. I wanted to believe he would be the old AA, it was NOT scheme, it was an inability to cover TEs in the flat because he sucks now, tries hard, but sucks now.

Better than Roy Williams? that's not hard considering Roy can't cover and being a safety is all about covering and being the last line of defense.

jbooma Posted May 7, 2007 Share Posted May 7, 2007 IN my opinion, we have two of the best safties in the NFL. What WR is going to go down the middle when either Taylor and/or Archuleta are waiting to demolish them? I just wanna see the two of them sandwich the hell outa someone. That would be awesome. :helmet: :point2sky :dallasuck Lets get him on the field first before putting him ahead of a lot of good safetys :doh: So what if they can tackle the question is the coverage ability.

Not really a question. GW said this weekend that when they took JC down to LSU to throw to Bowe (1st round WR), Landry was asked to cover him as a corner. Man-to-man and he did very well according to GW. Not surprising given his 4.35 speed. Anything else? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

phatSkins27 Posted May 7, 2007 Share Posted May 7, 2007 arch sucks ok i will repsond to all the nice fellow fans who appreciate my sense of humor.... first i know it was a short post but he does first of all so its not libel and second it only took two words to get 3 and half pages in half a day from you guys thats funny by itself. as for the NNT I guess you will have to ask ART or OM or somebody cuz i logged on one day and it said NNT and I hadnt posted a thread in a week or two so i have no idea where that came from and none of the mods feel im worhty of an explanation so whatever i9 guess when i wanna repost i will make a new account or something and last why i brought this up...well i am excited about laron but i guess after the let down that was last year i thought everyone should read what they said themselves last year at about this time before they post and annoint area 51 into the HoF. so have fun with. I really think Landry and Taylor in a coupole years will be the best saftey tandem and i think the skins have a top 5 backfield. and i cant wait to see TO get the taste knocked out of his mouth....

onnie007 Posted May 7, 2007 Share Posted May 7, 2007 covering man-to-man and in a zone are completely different, and when you are going up against another NFL team I understand that. I was merely mentioning the info that GW offered and felt was necessary for people to hear and calm any concerns that LL couldn't cover slot WRs or TEs.

Sorry for the double post. "Paloffs now" was the name of of a thread last year. Apparently the poor guy was too excited when he was typing the thread and so he misspelled "Playoffs Now!" It's not a big deal. Just one of those Internet things that take on a life of it's own, like "noob"or "pwned". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
