JC should stay...if im correct its the last year on his contract...keep him one year and see how he pans out...i think there is only few on the board that feels like bradford will be a franchise qb...i dont agree and think he is too fragile...i would much rather draft okung and get a later qb (kafka, whom i like although i agree with slinging sammy that i believe that clausen is a better pick than bradford) and get the future rb and just try to find those starters we need thru free agency since we have an idea what will we get from them. rookies you never know...but if we draft guys that can sit for a year we can determine how they will fair as a starter in the future. it seems rare that a rook comes in and just takes the starting job and does great with it. i like the idea of sitting them for a year or working them slowly into the line up.

i think orakpo would be fine as an olb in a 3-4....he would have to work on his coverage skills a bit but i think hes athletic enough to make it work. i have high hopes for him. i dont feel like hes being wasted being set back to linebacker...no one has a problem with peppers as a lb. im not saying that orakpo is as athletic as peppers but hes not too far away either. i think he will be fine...and the stunts (if we decide to go with a steeler type 3-4) i think will only up his sack total and give him more opportunity to make big plays.
