That sounds like a championship recipe to me.
Excellent; I would have preferred a long-term deal, but this is better than letting him walk. Orakpo is our defense's best player and we need him if we want to build a good defense.

The thing is though that he hasn't performed at a level warranting around 10 million a year. As I've stated a couple times before, he's someone I want to keep but only for the right price. His price tag could pay for a serviceable replacement like retaining Jackson, two new starting olinemen, and maybe even a replacement for Fletcher.
