I agree that OT was more pressing but i think this pick was a no brainer...I was hoping we might trade (somehow) to get Oher too- but i'm glad we have our 2010 first rounder still in the bag.

Re: Meet the Beast: Brian Orakpo
I wonder if signing Mike Williams was the difference between Oher and Orakpo?

Re: Meet the Beast: Brian Orakpo
Let's send a thank you card to Al Davis for drafting Heyward-Bey, who slid Crabtree down, and slid Orakpo down to us. We benefited from Al's speed obsession.

Re: Meet the Beast: Brian Orakpo
So glad Orakpo fell our way. I was getting nervous around pick #9. So glad he is a Skin!
Maybe the Sanchez deal was a big smokescreen but none the less the Skins should have handleed JC with a bit more class. |

Re: Meet the Beast: Brian Orakpo
Excellent pick. I wasn't really sold on him at first but the more I learned about BO the more I liked the pick. I'm not sold on his run stopping abilities though I'm sure that's not what he was brought in for. He's a bit undersized at the moment and I hope he gets to 280.
Defense wins Championships and boy do we have a defense. Hail!
