do you guys know if we can repeat vote for this?


i'm bored to death at work and rak deserves this.

orakpo wins this week, and it should be the year if byrd hadnt gotten so lucky with qb's launching the ball to him so often. I think it doesnt matter how rak does if there is a rookie who leads the league in picks.

it's cushing, matthews and byrd, but orakpo is up there too, if he gets a pick finishes with 15 or more sacks, and a few more tackles he should win it

Orakpo needs 3.5 sacks to tie J. Kearse's rookie NFL record 14.5 sacks ...

hopefully he gets that many against homo alone

but he does have a serious chance to break that record and end up with 16 sacks this year, this is if ah is back though, haven't seen him at any wizards game recently so hopefully he'll play this week

Hopefully when he is not a rookie he'll start to [B]really[/B] rush the passer.

[QUOTE]Redskins outside linebacker Brian Orakpo has been named NFC defensive player of the week for his performance in the Redskins' 34-13 win over Oakland on Sunday. Orakpo finished with four sacks, a forced fumble and six tackles in the game, tying a Redskins record in the process. Only Ken Harvey, Dexter Manley, Diron Talbert and Phillip Daniels have had four sacks in a game. And since the NFL began tracking yards lost on sacks, Orakpo's 44 yards are the highest. [/QUOTE]

Wow, great honor for Rak.

He's going to be scary good next year.
