I told you that there was a 3-4 outside linebacker on this list that would be a defensive end if he came to the Giants. Orakpo’s injury concerns are the only reason he is available, which is also the reason his price tag won’t scare the Giants.
Orakpo knows how to get to the quarterback, and with a cap friendly and low risk contract he is worth bringing in. Orakpo is looking for a fresh start, why not jump over to the Redskins rivals, the Giants?
Steve Spagnuolo is known for getting the most out of pass rushers. If healthy, Orakpo is a difference maker. The Giants could get him at a bargain.
