I actually think there's a better chance that Orakpo falls to the second than Raji. Orakpo's relatively weak against the run and seems to be maxed out in potential - a get-what-you-see type of guy. That's the kind of player that you can steal in the second (see: DeMeco Ryans)
I agree with you about Raji, but I was working with the current thehuddlereport.com rankings. It is a pay list and it always starts out way out of sorts.

On most of the list made prior to December Raji was ranked in the 40's, he is just now starting to be ranked by most list in the mid 20s, closer to where I believe him to be drafted. At this time last year Adibi was a 2nd rounder, and Chris Johnson was a 3rd or 4th rounder, so needless to say the list are all in a state of flux this time of year.

The main thing I want to show is we can really go heavy Defense and make a huge difference on this team, but it makes us even younger then we are now.
