Re: Would you consider trading Orakpo and Trent Williams for picks?

He pretty much handled his business against all of those guys. He has outperformed TW. Also Trent Williams has a weed problem that might cost him a one year suspension. What's really bad is he has only been in the league for a year. He makes a lot of bonehead plays on the field and off. He has yet to put together a dominate performance. You mean to tell me this guy isn't expendable?
I look at Orakpo a lot different than Trent Williams. I think he's a guy with the talent, focus, and desire to be elite. My problem is with him is he's not consistent. You see him have a great game one week and then disappear for weeks. I'm sure y'all remember last year when he started with 7.5 sacks and with 8.5 sacks. The first half of the season he was great. The second half of the season he was non factor. Am I lying? He's not that good against the run or in coverage. In my opinion, he's not the best fit for what we do. This year he's been alright, but not great.

Williams could always be converted to right tackle if he really stinks it up. Jamaal Brown is on his last legs, and neither Locklear nor Polumbus are good enough to be a starter.
