Derek Landri, anyone?

I don't believe I saw much mention of him in training camp updates from Little King, Gantt, or anyone else. Yet, here's this article on the CO site building him up to potentially be our next force at DT. Can anyone shed any light on how he's looked at camp so far?

You don’t know the great Derek Landri? Actually, he’s had a good camp. RT @JamieBtweets I thought I was on top of updates, but who’s Landri?

Until this camp he's been J.A.G.

But apparently he’s picked it up a bit. He’s a high-motor guy. That is his best attribute.

"If you ask Jets' CB Darrelle Revis, there is no one who is harder to cover one-on-one than Steve Smith. That has to mean something coming from last year's runner-up for Defensive Player of the Year."

I’ve never heard of half the people on that Sports Illustrated list. They were sure right about Kalil though. He should’ve been drafted in the first half of the first round.

stuff 'bout stuff.

Landri had an EPIC playoff game for the Jags during their 12-4 season,

so he does bring some more experience that our other DT’s lack. I think he could very well beat out Ed Johnson and Corey Irvin for the first guy in. However he’s not solid enough at the POA to start.

Ready for 2010 football already!!!
