One thing to consider about Landry is that he was recruited as a CB. He was moved to safety because of the injury to Gay in the 2003 season since Sabban felt more comfortable with the veteran Daniels at corner.

I think he was always going to be a safety. He was rated as one of the top ones coming out of HS.

Yea he was originally a safety but they have so much talent that they had to play him somewheres.

#1 Meriweather, Miami
#2 Landry, LSU

The same guy Joe Addai schooled in the Peach Bowl? I don't think so.

It's a team game.

:P I knew I could stir up a hornests nest on this one.
I know whoodi, you never said move up to get him.
I do not think he is worth even considering for what it would take in picks to get him.
As far as the draft goes. The math says we will finsh no worse than the 19th pick in this year draft based on our record. the best we could do is win it all and pick 32. Statistists our on our side. 95% CI for those of you who know Stats. the other 5 % has to do with a complete melt down and the superbowl. I just had throw the superbowl winner pick in because that is were we want to go.
Still he is 2-3 years away from being a solid starting nfl player.
Got to poke that nest one more time

In every article I've seen about next years draft class Landry is always number one, and that was before the Miami brawl.

With Meriweather on tape stomping on the FIU player you can bet his draft stock has dropped.

Landry is the best safety in the country. Period. Zbkowski is close cause he adds the dimension of returning kicks, but Landry can play either safety position and excel.
You stir up a Hornet's nest by making things up? At any rate, if we did pick 19, or anywhere after that, and Landry is on the board, it's a good choice. As far as you saying he is not NFL ready, that's making stuff up again to start some crap. Try harder.

One of Landry's biggest things he has going for him is that he is the most NFL ready of all the DB's with maybe the exception of Leon Hall. He has played in complex, NFL style defenses and he is going to make an impact somewhat along the lines of Polamalu...i think he is going to be a stud from day one.
