    I've heard a lot of talk about Reggie Nelson and Nick Harper but do you all think we have a shot to get Laron? This dude hands down is the best S in the darft!

    I would love to see the Titans get Laron!

    LaRon Landry
    From NFL Draft Consultant Conor Dowley

    Position: Safety
    School: LSU

    Status: Senior

    Height: 6-2

    Weight: 187

    40-Yard Dash: 4.48 (EST)

    Positives:
    LaRon Landry may be the best pure free safety in the nation right now. His coverage skills in center field are virtually second to none, and he hits surprisingly hard for his light size. He's also one of the few safety prospects in recent years who is a total ball hawk, flowing to the ball and the play better than the majority of defenders in the nation.

    Negatives:
    Landry's frame is a little smallish for the typical NFL safety, and some teams may try to make him gain weight so as to help improve his durability at the NFL level. He also sometimes tries to go for the big play instead of the sure thing, and that has created problems in the past.
    Overview:
    Ever since his debut as a freshman, Landry has been one of LSU's top defenders and has steadily risen up the ranks as one of the best defensive backs in the nation. He has improved every year and should become a solid free safety in the NFL for years to come.

    That would be great if we did, but I doubt it he falls to #19. Then again anything is possible.

    If Laron did fall to 19th on the board, this would be the best pick up for the Titans! Least I believe so

    Yeah it would mean goodbye to Lamont Thompson which is the best thing that could happen to us.

    Our roster shows Hope, Fuller, Lowry and Lamont 'Where am I' Thompson. Would you draft that high in that position? The ole, "Take the best man available when its your turn" idea?
