Until Orakpo plays badly, I have no reason to suspect that he will be a Gholston.

Seriously. It's a GREAT thing to be a workout warrior if you're also super productive on the field. Do you guys realize how friggin insane it is to bench 515lbs?? Plus he power cleans nearly 400 which is almost funny it's so crazy. That kind of strength to go with his first step means if he's not going around tackles, he can push them out of the way.

I'm really fired up about this kid.
