I have been mulling over this situation for a while.. I think, (and hope), that if the SAM experiment doesn't bear fruit within the first 5-6 games, that the coaching staff rethinks Orakpo at LB, or swallows their pride enough to realize that this young man has too much talent not to be maximizing on their investment. What I really mean is this: Orakpo is an animal, it is the job of the coaching staff to recognize where he is most effective AND where he can help positionally on the field. I don't want to see Orakpo turn into this years Vernon Gholston...
