I agree that this Redskins team keeping Brian Orakpo doesn't exactly move the meter nationally, but in a world where the Redskins wish to be something that isn't average, locking up guys like Orakpo (and Rogers/Landry/Clark/Pierce/etc) needs to become routine business. Not last second indecision.
It's not so much that a 3-13 team needs to keep all of its defensive players from a below average unit. They really don't need to do anything. But if they're not serious about getting it right (and they might just let Orakpo hit the market at this time next season anyway), why would it be any different with Griffin in two years?
