Orakpo and Carriker Done for Season

Don't let Laron Landry see this post or he will be all over it.

I'll be honest, I really like Gomes and like what he is doing.

I like Rob Jackson or Chris Wilson. They both can rush the passer almost as good as Orakpo can. One of them should replace #98.

So do I, but we still need to fill Orakpo's vacancy. Markus White or Bryan Kehl make the most sense and one of them should be brought back.

Me too. Bernstine could be nice bext year too. I was more just trying to make the point of how i feel about landry than to rip our safeties.

F... Landry!! He'll probably get suspended for juicing.

We'll see what happens. Bruce and Mike know fully well that Markus White knows the system and plays OLB. Kehl on the other hand knows the system as well, but plays ILB. Unless an injury happens to Riley or Fletcher, I don't see Kehl being brought back.

How about Anthony Hargrove?

Man, the initial hearing of this news really burns. I don't feel so bad about having Jenkins replace Carriker, though it was really nice having Carriker starting and Jenkins rotating in wherever we needed him. Carriker was a rock for the D, but i'm excited to see what Jenkins has to offer.

I really think we're gonna miss Orakpo more than some people are saying. Seems like a lot of people thought he was overrated. He sets the edge against the run well, pressures the quarterback ALOT, and has really improved in coverage. Offense's pay a lot of attention to him and i think he contributes more to any success our D may have than some of us believe. It'll suck not having Orakpo & Kerrigan coming off both edges, but i think it'll force Kerrigan into the spotlight. He'll face a lot of double teams and chip blocks from the running back but all that work could poise him for a breakout year NEXT season. Kerrigan will be an elite player sooner than later IMO.

The optimistic side of me is thinking that we weren't winning the Super Bowl this year anyways, might actually serve us some good to get guys like Jenkins, Wilson & Jackson some legitimate playing time. Hopefully this turns into a blessing in disguise and one of those guys turns out to be a strong role player for us down the road.
