And its a hometown guy who has a good work ethic and can be a leader, which is especially needed given our defensive situation and the new coaching staff.

I think we will sign him to 5 years, 52 - 55 million with 25 guaranteed. Orakpo is worth around that.
I thought 26 was low, but he's actually 27 and will be 28 at the end of July. That's even better than I thought, I read an article that said he's turning 29 in July.
