Lack of TE production means your WRs are worth a damn. The reason Cooley did as well as he did was because our WRs sucked in the past and we had a QB that did nothing but check down. Now we finally have decent WR talent and a QB that can get the ball to them.

Agreed, but I still expect more from Davis.

Thankfully we have some depth at these positions. Wish we would have held on to Markus White.

White was simply beat out by Chris Wilson and Rob Jackson. These two should be licking their chops at getting a chance to show what they can do. I expect them to come in and get the job done.

He's on TB practice squad and the Skins should go get him, I think he would be the best choice to replace Orakpo's roster spot followed by Kehl.

How about Anthony Hargrove?

Thats every team though. At least we as skins fans have understandable frustration. Giants fans were booing the hell out of eli and the giants at the half yesterday. They just won the damn superbowl and everyone knows eli stinks until the fourth quarter.

Agree w posts above. Rak is great, but we overvalue him. I'd bet Robby J and C-Dubb fill in well. Shanny has actually developed decent depth, unless previous decades.

Couple of points:
1) Our defensive problem has been SECONDARY, not D-line/LB. Our front seven was full-force for most of the past 2 games, and the QBs just threw quickly to uncovered WR. Unless we strengthen our secondary so they can cover for THREE TO FOUR SECONDS, then who cares whether we have Orakpo?

2) Does anyone think Shanahan / Redskins medical personnel rushed Orakpo back to the field? Perhaps taking more time off to recover would have helped prevent this - he already hurt himself in the preseason and we only gave him a few weeks off.

3) What the heck defensive scheme was Haslett running? Zone my a$$. I digress..

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

Eff him and his fragile ass. He will be on the sidelines within two to four weeks.

They should change his nickname to "Crystal" cause he's so fragile.
