Always kinda pulled for the dolphins, then ya'll drafted one of my favorite college players so I had to come over and take a peek! 35 years old, worked on an ambulance for 10 years... Served 4 years in the Army, 15 months deployed in Iraq... Avid Fantasy player and wanna be self guru... LSU and Saints fan but with your pick of my favorite LSU player I suppose Dolphin fan! Landry is going to be a beast for ya'll and as long as the Phins treat him well I will be a fan ;) Ya'll just dont know what ya'll really got but soon as game time comes you will see...
Posted this in another thread:
LSU Fan here as if it wasn't obvious by my board name... Glad to see
ya'll are welcoming Jarvis! I read the other day 2 thread and saw a few
nay sayr's which is to be expected... I mean Jarvis did run a 4.7 at
the
combine, but the part most don't see is he pulled his hammy during
the
combine and even Michael Irvin was trying to get him to stop
participating... Finally someone had to make him stop... That's the kind
of young man ya'll are getting, you can't teach heart or want to!
That's something you have or you don't... I read alot about Beckham in
the other thread... I have watched all of LSU's game for as long as I
can
remember. Beckham is a fine young man as well as electric and
always a
threat... I love both and going to the giants forums after
this to see
how they are receiving him as well... Both are great any
team lucky to
have them, but if I could only have one Landry would be
on my team...
IMHO he allowed ya'll to steal him in 2nd by running on
that bum hammy
at the combine... The awesome talent coupled with drive,
motor, want to,
lay's it all out there for his team... All that and
you kept your first
round pick! Totally unselfish player which is rare
in today's me Me
ME!!! world... Only have to look over to Wallace to
see that... I
understand all the apprehension though. Heck I am the
same way! I
watched all the tapes on Cooks, but I just can't seem to
get over his
5'9" height... Personally I would trade him to ya'll for
Landry LoL!
There are always going to be some out there who just don't
see it or get
it... I myself am one from time to time... Alah Cooks,
but I also know I
know diddly about Oregon State so I hope I am
pleasantly surprised by
him this year... I promise by season's end all
of ya will love this man
and be cheering for him! I like Tannehill,
think he is coming along
quite well for ya'll... Hell of an arm on the
guy, although accuracy can
be a problem from time to time... Same with
Mettenberger... They are
almost clone qb's except for Tannehill's
excellent mobility... Landry's
hands and range to pull a ball in from
anywhere and how is able to get
open almost sneaky like, with
Tannehill's ability to extend plays,
Jarvis will make him a better
qb... I'll bet by next season's end,
Jarvis will have done more for
ya'll than Odell has done for the
Giant's... I think I may even start
to become a Phins fan, pulling for
Landry and I absolutely hate the
Patriots... Ughh! Oh! Which makes me
think... Of all the apprehensive
one's, can anyone name any Pat's receivers in
recent memory of any
repute much less being a burner outside of Welker
who isn't a burner
but has heart, intensity, fearless in traffic, and
hands? Sound like
someone else I know? HaHa... Well I'll quit whacking
this dead horse...
Ready to watch some games! Will be pulling for the
Phins unless they
are playing the Saints!

welcome.
and glad to hear your confirmation of what many of us were suspecting.

Appreciate the insight, LSU. I liked the Landry pick when we made it, but, the way you Tiger fans are raving about him, you've made me pumped up to see him in action. I'm ready to buy his jersey right now!

Love a good dead horse whacking

A few things:
1) Thank you for serving, you'll be getting one of those cool army badges once one of the board administrators gets to it.
2) Secondly, I couldnt agree more on Cooks.
Im not a fan of smurf wr's especially for a WR corps that needs toughness.
3) Lastly, I wasnt really sure about the Landry pick.
He wasnt someone I had really pegged even though I agree he has great character.
Watching him more in game situations, I agree hes a Hines Ward type grinder, chain mover, smash mouth type receiver....as much as a WR can be smash mouth anyway.
I was heartbroken when the Iggles leaped us for Jordan Matthews who is my favorite WR in this draft; this is a heck of a good consolation prize.
