Ok, now that you've made your anti-Orakpo stance known, you can stop trolling.
How in the blue hell is Orakpo "LaVar Arrington in the making"? Arrington was a freelancer who didn't care about the defensive call, he was going to do what he wanted. Rak isn't. LaVar just cared about getting paid, Rak actually puts time in and works on getting better.

I'm not saying Orakpo is a bad player far from that. I'm just saying that Orakpo and Arrington have much in common on how they played. When it comes to Orakpo he is always getting injured as was LaVar but LaVar had coaching problems and was put in the dog house by Greg Williams as they couldn't get along.
The two styles of play aren't alike at all. LaVar was a 4-3 Will Linebacker. Rak is a 3-4 OLB. LaVar was more of a "traditional" linebacker where Rak is a pass rusher.
He isn't "always getting injured" as I already told you. His first injury was in the last game two years ago, and he rushed back and reinjured it. He'll have had much more time to rehab it this time, and it won't be an issue anymore.

Not even close. Orakpo was a DE in college and he is a top shelf pass rusher. LaVar was undisciplined, lazy, and stupid and he was a LB in college. He free lanced.
Rak doesn't free lance. Rak just isn't as good in coverage or at setting the run edge as Jackson.
If it's your opinion, that's cool, but you should be embarrassed at comparing these two, mate. Not even in the same ball park outside of the uniform and the position. All comparrisons end there... from heart, work ethic, and the type of man they are to their talents and consistency on the field.

Three most memorable plays of LaVar career; the interception return against Carolina, the hit on Aikman to end his career and the head-on collision against Vick during a pre-season game against ATL. Mind you, I am no LaVar *** kisser.
Don't have many for Orakpo but he can keep trying tho.

Obviously. You've gone out of your way to continually put forth some really unpopular opinions since you've been here. And that's fine. But sometimes you need to take a step back and realize why they're unpopular. First Banks, now LaVar. And that's just what I've randomly noticed recently. Maybe try to figure out why you're in the ridiculously small minority on these things. Might lead you somewhere. Or maybe you've got all the right answers, and 99% of the die-hard, knowledgeable fans on this site are whiffing again and again.
