The Washington Redskins agreed to terms with No. 6 overall draft pick LaRon Landry early Monday, and the safety from LSU was to arrive at training camp in the afternoon to end his three-day holdout. Landry was expected to sign a five-year deal worth about $41.5 million, pending a final review of the contract by the Redskins. Landry is projected as a starter at strong safety, joining a secondary that would consist of four players taken in the top 10 of the NFL draft. Cornerback Shawn Springs was the No. 3 overall selection in 1997, free safety Sean Taylor was taken at No. 5 in 2004, and cornerback Carlos Rogers went at No. 9 in 2005. Landry is known as a hard-hitter who plays constantly at full throttle. He started 48 games over four years at LSU and was first-team All-America as a senior. His brother, Dawan, plays for the Baltimore Ravens.

Couldn't happen to a better guy!

i'm a skins fan and that is exactly who I wanted them to get, even though sean taylor is already there. Hopefully taylor can keep his nose clean this year. Landry is one of my all-time favorite bayou bengals(and there are not many).

he showed up at mini-camp overweight and outta shape. granted he had a injury but i'm more mad at the saints for drafting him. we don't need another WR. i hope i'm wrong but the simularities to donte stallworth are scaring me. my friends who go to training camp say the WR coach yells at him nonstop. that can't be good.
