Re: Brian Orakpo = Beast
But if you draft the best player on the board and he's a bust, you get blasted.
So to review, best player on the board and he lives up to the hype = no credit Best player on the board and he's a bust = you are a dumbass |

Re: Brian Orakpo = Beast
Orakpo at that spot was an absolute no-brainer. When Denver picked Moreno right before our spot, we would have rightfully been ridiculed if we passed on a Top-10 talent that could fill a position of significant need (SLB / DE). Orakpo is going to be our DeMarcus Ware (or better) for the next decade.

Re: Brian Orakpo = Beast
Not from me. Rogers is a good example. He hasn't been awesome...but he was the right pick. Just didn't work out too much.

Re: Brian Orakpo = Beast
I disagreed with the Rogers pick with DeMarcus Ware and Shawne Merriman still on the board. At least with Orakpo, we finally have the impact pass rusher that we passed on back then. And don't underestimate the impact of Haynesworth. He makes Orakpo and Carter almost unblockable since he's taking a double team on many plays. I'm amazed that the secondary hasn't made more plays with a vastly improved pass rush. Landry is all but invisible.

Re: Brian Orakpo = Beast
if al davis is sniffing super glue and see's dhb run a sick forty time and drafts him about 20 spots early and throws everyone off, and then the bills take maybin ahead of orakpo, if you don't take orakpo then you better join in with davis and the super glue sniffing cause orakpo was definitely top ten talent
