NYDailyNews: Laron Landry says NY Jets won't be getting a hometown discount

[RonArtest15]

Had no clue he was that bad in coverage...NVM about what I said LOL. Ma doo doo is clearly better.

[Bang]

No, not at all.
Landry is a "me first" player, and we are far beyond that being welcome here.
his desire to lay the big hit results in flags and a lack of ball awareness.

Landry=Sam Shade w/ a bad attitude
Landry= Roy Williams after outlawing Horse Collar.

What we need are a couple high quality FS. It's a passing league nowadays.

LOL @ Sam Shade.

I haven't seen that name in forever.

And for the record, let's pass on Landry. I agree that we have precious little cap room to squander on high-risk, low-reward players like him.

[Warhead36]

Zero chance he comes back here nor would I want him back. He is a tool and not a very good football player outside of that one stretch of games in 2010.

Pro Football Focus ranked Laron 72 out of 76 strong safeties int he NFL. Obviously that includes starters and backups. Madieu and Reed ranked higher (not by much) and we have seen the result(s) on the field.

Laron will be out of football after 2013.

I wouldn't bring Laron back -- I wouldn't even bring Carlos back. We're better off without them and their pathetic attitudes.

[BobGriffin]

He would bring a physical presence to our secondary that we don't have. Watching teams like the Seahawks 49ers and Ravens they have at least one hammer in the secondary. I think we need that, he could be the 3rd safety in a rotation that plays more on first and second down. If we can get him for a decent price I wouldn't mind.

The only time I want to see Landry at Fedex Field is when the Redskins are playing against the team he's on. He was apart of the circus culture in DC and it's quite the coincidence that when we got rid of those players our franchise has started to turn around for the better in the FO and on the playing field.

[Destino]

I keep seeing this, but Trent and Davis were one toke away from a year's suspension. It's not like Jackson will cost a ton of money or be a bad cap hit. Bring him back, because I think he'll:

1) be good
2) have something to prove
3) cost cheap
4) won't risk a permanent ban like Dexter Manley.

So no, he's not a HUGE risk. He's a minimal risk as long as we have a plan B behind him and I think the FO will do that this year. I think they had a plan B, but the 18 million cap hit kind of put that to bed.

Have you missed this season? The risk has already resulted in a season long problem. He can't be a minimal risk when he's already done what people are afraid Davis and Trent MIGHT do.

[FSUSkins24]

Hahahah, I chuckled a little reading the title of the OP. What a clown.

[Hitman21ST]

Hahahah, I chuckled a little reading the title of the OP. What a clown.

I agree. He's not in any position to be pre-negotiating his contract.

[scruffylookin]

Laroid is under the impression that there are teams that are going to bid for him?

This moron is still as delusional as ever.

[kevinklein]

This article is nonsense... A favor paid to Landry's agent to spur demand. Equal parts fluff about his skill set and reporting about how healthy he is, this reporter is now owed a favor by this agent.

Next scoop involving one of this agents players is his. That's how this business works,.. Hideous marriage between journalism and sports agents.

Are you seriously implying that a professional sports team would be influenced to sign a player by a second rate city paper, as if the teams don't have troves of information that press room cronies aren't privy to. Really?

Again, what is this HIGH risk for putting him on the 90 man roster for camp with a vet minimum contract that is cutable with no cap ramifications? Am I missing something? Trent and Davis are our starting LT and TE, much more important positions than FS. If you take the minimal risk with him, you may have a starter. If he fails another test, then we're no worse than we were. Or, we may be better if the FO is able to go out and get another FS in case he fails another test. Yes, there IS a risk. But it's minimal. Very minimal.

He wasn't brought in to be depth, on the off chance he stays clean. The skins are likely to go looking for a starter in the offseason at his position. As you say however if he's willing to come back for a song and is willing to accept a role as a special teams player kept for depth then the risk is minimal. If they cut him however I wouldn't care, he has failed entirely and cost the Redskins much.
