MTK 04-25-2009, 08:15 PM NFL.com draft profile National Football League: NFL Draft 2009 - Brian Orakpo (http://www.nfl.com/draft/2009/profiles/brian-orakpo?id=71423) nimbh2 04-25-2009, 08:16 PM i would hate to be the opposing qb carter haynesworth and orakpo The Goat 04-25-2009, 08:16 PM McShay breaks him down: Draft Capsule: Brian Orakpo - ESPN Video - ESPN (http://sports.espn.go.com/broadband/video/clip?id=4094481) That wasn't particularly encouraging stuff from McShay...just raises the question higher of where Orakpo fits in our system, other than replacing Andre long term. Like McShay said, this isn't a guy to rely on dropping back and covering the good TEs we see every year. nimbh2 04-25-2009, 08:16 PM oops cant forget griffen MTK 04-25-2009, 08:18 PM 13. Washington Redskins The pick: Brian Orakpo, DE, Texas What he brings: Orakpo came off the board this early because he can get to the quarterback. He has excellent first-step quickness, he can redirect insider after starting outside and has better closing speed than his 4.7 40 suggests. That's not to say he can't defend the run. He has excellent upper-body strength and is tough at the point of attack. Still, he could stand to add five to 10 pounds to his frame. How he fits: Washington must have been ecstatic that a pass-rusher of Orakpo's caliber was around at the 13th pick. He fills an immediate need with the departure of Jason Taylor combined with an aging Renaldo Wynn and Phillip Daniels. He is a nice addition to play opposite of Andre Carter and next to Cornelius Griffin and Albert Haynesworth in forming one of the better defensive lines in the NFC.
