Maybe he will be the next Lavar Arrington but a better pass rusher. I just hope Orakpo has a much longer career with the Redskins than LA did.

I like Samuels, but instead of commenting on Orakpo or Campbell (good or bad comments) he needs to continue to focus on that o-line and continue to have that chip on their shoulders about the unit's performance in the 2nd half of the season.

I suppose, but it is TC and the media are all asking him questions. He is a natural to answer them because we know his level of talent, and he is facing Orakpo on the field.

Samuels will be fine, the only question is health, and that will just have to play out on the field.

Yeah, his health and Randy Thomas' are the definitely in the back of my mind. Although as I said in a previous thread, with Thomas being held out of practice, the likes of Rinehart get to take more reps and playing time in the preason.

Samuels is easily the best player on the team. He can say whatever he wants.

Cooley said the same thing about Rak-N-Sak. Star in the making.

More Orakpo hype, and I mean that in a good way, the kid sounds beastly:

Morning Practice - Orakpo "Gonna Be A Great One"

I guess I'm in the market for a new jersey. Does anyone know for sure if Orakpo is going to keep his number or can they change after the final roster is set?

He was #98 in college so i see no reason he would change it.

Since Redskins.com is already selling #98 I think it's safe to assume that's his final number, and that was his college # too so why would he change?

First time I've heard Bridges and I like him. I heard he has been good at guard, but not so good at tackle.

I do believe in Orakpo, loved the pick, and have been excited ever since, but other than the WR's I haven't heard anything but praise for any rookie.

Thanks guys. I just got back from shopping with my GF so my mind's a little screwy right now.
