Is there room for Orakpo and Rob Jackson?

He's said he wants to retire a Skin. We'll see if he means it...

What I would like to see is Hall putting on 10-15 pounds and becoming our starting free safety.

Yeah he'll likely finish his career as FS, but he's got another couple good years at CB IMO. Either way retaining him for a reasonable contract would be ideal. I like Hall, always have.

Orakpo doesn't have as many interceptions because coaches recognize his talents as a pass rusher are so significant that he's asked to rush the passer more often than Jackson is.

Jackson is a very valuable depth player, not much more. I'd let him walk if he gets offered a big deal. Orakpo is a pass rushing threat, not many players like that out there.

Agreed. If Brown is gone, who is going to lead the team yoga sessions?

Brown is essential to the pistol play and the read-option formation.

That's why they've been holding Brown back.

It's obvious that Jackson has developed into a better all-around OLB than Orakpo. I think Kerrigan has/was too. I'd listen to trade interest for sure. Orakpo doesn't deserve to be traded but, this is a business.

I prefer rak, however more important than anything else to me is how we treat the situation. We've been known to not take care of the people we develop while throwing money at old free agents that don't deliver. With RG3 we can become a destination people want to come to. We new to foster that along with being known to take care of (not overpay) our existing talent while picking up remaining pieces through free agency.

If we offer a fair contract that someone else beats, so be it.

This entire thread seems to be a trapped in the moment kind of thread and not looking at the big picture. Jackson has had a good couple of games in a row, it should not warrant letting go one of the top players on the Redskins Defense. Kerrigan has shown flashes but is extremely inconsistent and will be taken out during entire games. Still think we can upgrade one of the 3-4 DE's and would add depth but to think Orakpo's pressence has not been missed this season due to the emergence of Jackson in this run would to me be living in the moment and thinking his play will continue for an entire carreer.

Minnifield?
LOL
The guy has done nothing yet.
You may as well try to predict next years weather.

With the success of low round draft picks, this team could start a pipeline of players like Jackson...
