What exactly, has Landry done to make you think it is worth DRob & JJ? Let's not give up the ranch now.

DRob and Jacoby = the ranch? really? what has jacoby done apart from fumble 1 out of every 4 times he touches the ball? Landry was a guy I wanted badly when he came out. If DRob isn't quite enough, and all we have to throw in is a guy with decent speed who occasionally shows flashes while overall performing like he belongs in the arena league, I'm all for it. I don't really see JJ seeing the field much at all anyway, what with angry dre, walter, and the string dance in front of him. Add in the fact that we now have 30 TE's, and there's even less touches for your boy jacoby. do that trade in a heartbeat!

Back at you...........what exactly, has LaRon Landry done to warrant two players, and why all of a sudden is he tradebait?

What has he done? Aside from being one of the best young safeties in the NFL?

He's an un and coming player. I don't know what the riff is, or if it's even legitimate. But, if you have the opportunity to trade a player in a contract dispute, who wants more money than he's worth, who's (or will be) only under contract for one more year for one of the best up and coming safeties, you do it.

There's a reason he's being rumored to be traded. He hasn't participated in the off season program the last couple of years. You may be just trading one disgruntled player looking for a huge deal for another one. I have no idea if it's the case, but good young players aren't available for trade unless their is a good reason.

I'll take a healthy disgruntled player at a position of need and IS in the top 5 at his position over a disgruntled player who is coming back from an injury who thinks he should be paid like a top 5 player at his position.

With the emergence of Glover Quinn to play Nickleback, this would be a no-brainer. Of course we just have to talk the Redskins into the deal.

And who is on his BEST day at most was barely a top 10 and now lucky to crack the top 20.

That's what I'm also asking ? I know he was a very high pick coming out of LSU after having an outstanding career there and was "oddly" the second safety taken by the Redskins in the top 10 in just a few short years, but I dunno what he's done in the 2 years he's been in the NFL ? Haven't really heard much about him ? And you know you'd have to assume a big cap obligation if you took him.
