Rank Orakpo as a OLB prospect...

It's obvious that he has the atlehticism to play multiple posisitions but, there has to be a reason he's has zero experience playing LB. He's only played DE since HS. It seems like the FO was trying to get a two-for-one player and how realistic is that? As I look back at the LB and DE prospects in the draft, it seems that Clay Matthews (played DE), Sintim, possibly Everette Brown (have you seen his spin move?) and Aaron Maybin (already gone), would've been better suited to the plans the coaches and FO had in mind. I just hope Orakpo doesn't get hurt trying out for SLB.
