I'll also stay this: for as fantastic as Brian Orakpo is at rushing the passer, he's not a complete player with a really high football IQ. His contributions to the team can be mostly replaced. We just have one of the best young pass rushers in the game, and need to complement him with other top pass rushers in order to get the most out of him. If teams can just double team him because we have no other pass rushing threats, he's a liability out there at linebacker.

Most of Lorenzo Alexander's skill set translated very well to outside linebacker. His pass rushing skills did not. He's an interior pass rusher playing on the outside.
