| Rak's reported knee and ankle issues Watching ESPN and listening to NW insider, I found out that Rak has had, for the past two years, recurring knee and ankle injuries that have not healed correctly. In moving to the pros, do think there's a chance of that recurring set of injuries becoming degenerative?

| Re: Rak's reported knee and ankle issues That's the reason I haven't been really high on Orakpo, but all else about him sounds good. I like it that he's a smart dude. He had a great combine but it still sounds like he gets mixed reviews. I like E. Brown a lot too. I hope we get either get one of the top 4 OTs or trade back. |

| Re: Rak's reported knee and ankle issues I am not saying that the injury report is wrong. However, every year on draft week, injury reports magically surface. It is a way of getting guys devalued at the last moment. Most of these reports are bogus or they would have surfaced earlier. Even if the injury report is real, one would think that the FO has already looked into such health issues.

Also, wasn't Orakpo hurt a lot the last 2 years at texas? If he played w/pain that's certainly a plus in his status, but I thought he missed some games. | |

| Re: Rak's reported knee and ankle issues What is NW Insider? And why do your threads look like you're writing a haiku? As for Orakpo, yeah his injury concerns are a bit of a concern but not a major concern I don't think.

On to the post. Knee and Ankle injuries are always of concern with any player....I don't have to think back very far to be reminded, Kelly! From the latest I have read on him he is still rehabbing that knee. I'm on the fence with Orakpo.

| Re: Rak's reported knee and ankle issues C'mon guys, Orakpo's recurring knee has been raised many times now here and elsewhere. Yeah it should be considered serious cuz it's a knee and he's missed time. The abuse his body took in college ball will be gentle compared to what he faces from this point forward...especially getting doubled at DE. ...i don't get the luv for this guy...just a lot of questions and concerns about where he fits best and the durability thing IMO.
