Suggs is a thug, he can stay in Baltimore for all I care.

I could be completely wrong, but I think he's a bit of a dirty player. I've seen a couple of games where he's been flagged for personal fouls, taking some cheap shots at QBs. I know B'more and Pittsburgh hate each other, but I remember one game he got flagged for taking a cheap shot at Big Ben. I looked up to see if I can find stats for most personal fouls, this is the best I could find (but it is from 2 yrs ago)

Flag these guys down when there's a penalty on the play - NFL - ESPN

Unfortunately I couldn't find anything more recent regarding personal fouls, but it wouldn't surprised me if he was up there. I know the guy is a beast of a player, but he rubs me the wrong way.

So since he rubs you the wrong way and he is vicious on the ball field and takes cheap shop he's a thug. Dude are you serious?.....

Do you know what a thug is?...I can direct you to some..lol

What is wrong with me having the opinion of not liking a player who tends to get a his fair share of personal fouls? I never said anything about Suggs ability to play, just his attitude and his personal fouls. He could have changed now, but I've seen in some Ravens boards that discipline was an issue with him in his first couple of years in the league.

Sheesh, I hear people here call Redskins players worst things, and I call Terrell Suggs a thug (which once again, my opinion, I'm just some yahoo on a soapbox in the internet) and people get all worked up over it?

Pacman is a thug, Plexico is a thug, Suggs is a player with a mean streak. I do remember Sean Taylor getting his share of personal fouls. Does that make him a thug?

If Orakp ends up at the right end next to Albert then who plays the left end on passing downs? Carter or Wilson, jackson. Also, Tennessee used Albert at d-end on passing situations so do we put Orakp at the right tackle position. With Albert at right end he will definitely get a push from the outside which cold benefit our blitzes from the other side.

There are so many options right now. More than we've had in many years. I read where one "expert" said, "If Haynesworth decided to change positions and play DE the rest of his career, he would automatically be the best DE in the NFL." I would love to see some downs with Orakpo at RDE and AH at LDE.

yea, I thought I read that Suggs ran a 4.8 40 but I can't find the link now.

Suggs is a very good player, and we can only hope Orapko at least reaches his level if not surpass it.

[GTripp0012]

Again, I'll reiterate that this isn't a "where are Orakpo's skills best" kind of thing. This is just a play now/play later deal.

Maybe one day, Orakpo could be the type of player Suggs is. We can dream. But in 2003, 263 was small for a Rush DE. Now, it's about average. Suggs also got taken in the top-10, so he didn't exactly fall through the NFL Draft floor.

I hope Orakpo isn't listening to all the doubters and using Suggs' success as motivation.

T-Sizzle?
