Brian Orakpo will win NFL DPOY and other predictions

[GTripp0012]

It's been a while since a Redskin has gone all-pro, and I think Orakpo breaks that streak this year.

I also predict that:

Josh Wilson will win NFC Defensive player of the week at least once.

Santana Moss will get another 6 receiving touchdowns: one more than Fred Davis.

Pierre Garcon will get off to a fast start, with three 30+ yd TD receptions in the first six weeks of the season.

Robert Griffin will throw for 3,500 yards as a rookie.

Barry Cofield will head to the pro bowl this season.

Trent Williams will give the Redskins a second all-pro player (with Orakpo), and the Redskins will have the highest YPC to the left of any NFL team.

Griffin will get 20 career passing TDs before his 10th career INT (maybe neither this season though).

I think Kerrigan is more likely to make the PB, imo.

Kids just nasty.

Who are you and what have you done with GTripp???

Tripp (if that is really you ), it is hard to argue with your predictions and I hope they come true. I especially support the Josh Wilson prediction. I think he will have a very good year and turn haters into supporters.

Hahaha...I had the same thought immediately.

From GTripps keyboard to God's ears. I think it's all very possible and would be a great indication that we have turned the corner and can put the past few years behind us.

dude that is hilarious.. I was thinking that GTripp got hacked.. I agree that if Tripp is this positive we must be in for something special!

[hooskins]

Did you just get laid, GTripp? Why so positive?

I can see London Fletcher winning the NFL Defensive Player of the Year away this year.

Kerrigan's our best defensive player. Was last year and will be again this year. Rak seems too inconsistent at times. He's good player, but I'm starting to feel he's a bit overrated.

But this coming from the guy who thinks D.Hall is the best thing since sliced bread, so what do I know.

I mean, Kerrigan is going to be one of the better defensive players in the NFL, no doubt. I just think Orakpo --particularly with Suggs on the mend this year-- is poised to be the top defensive player in the NFL this year. He's already the top guy on the Redskins.

[GoSkins!]

Hey GTRIPP, do you think any other top tier DE has a leg up based on an easy schedule (relative to OL they face)?

Orakpo showed how great he was two years ago when he was being held consistently on every pass rush. He knows how to rush the passer but he has to learn how to fight through two defenders in order to get to the quarterback because the opposing coaches know what he's capable of. On a play last season when Orakpo sacked Cam Newton, he was more gratified with getting to the sack than going for the strip. Orakpo has to learn how to go for the strip in order to make himself even more respectable and feared.

I think Po is probably our best player but don't you think he has pretty much under-delivered on his talent so far. And I totally understand the somewhat craziness of that statement.
