He is going to help us out, that is for sure. Orakpo is going to play a LB on run downs and rush the passer off the edge on 3rd. In the same mold as a Shawn Merriman.
The skins defense was #4 last year. As long as London Fletcher stays healthy, we should be better with the addition of Orakpo and Haynesworth.
Offense is still a question mark, but Campbell is in a contract year this season, and that is always a good thing. Guys seem to play better for a paycheck.
Our division is the hardest in football though. 2 games against the Cowboys, Giants, and Philly is tough and guys could get injured in 6 games against physical teams like that. Skins are always thin because of bad contracts and over paid free agents.
After seeing the Giants and Cards make the Super Bowls the last two season, the Skins certainly have a chance. Being a skins fan, I just hope for a home playoff game. Win or lose, a HOME playoff game. We have only had one since we moved to FedUp Field in 1996. Such low expectations.
