Is Orakpo primed for a big season? | Comcast SportsNet Washington

i say about 26 for us to be special :laser:

 

[Warpath]

I'll go with 21 if they are both healthy. 12 for Rak and 9 for Kerrigan.

I was thinking 20 or so myself

I'll be very disappointed if they only combine for 20 or 21 sacks (assuming the both play a full season). My over/under is 25.

It would depend on what the total team amount would be. They may only get 20-21 but guys like Bowen and Jenkins will also have more opportunities from Rak being back.

Neither has really shown that they are able to get the 26 figure, so I'm just basing it off of what their production has been.

I'd gladly take an improvement.

They both have the capability to be 13-15 sack/year guys. Rak has got to develop other moves. If he doesn't, he'll end up with 10 -12 sacks and 6-8 holding calls for the year. I'd gladly trade those holding calls for sacks as they tend to produce turnovers. He needs a swim move, he needs an inside rush. He also needs to stunt more with Bowen.

Kerrigan is entering his 3rd year. He really wore down last year and the end. He played every down again (I think). He needs a breather every now and then. But he may have more potential that Rak. He's a better overall athlete and is very football aware. I predict another PB appearance for him this year.

I agree with this. They both should achieve double digits, in fact with injury/superbowl drop outs...
They both will be in the pro-bowl.

i think rak has developed the other moves or at least one . we just didnt get the chance to see it last season

 

[sublime4eva]

If they both play the full seaon and that's a big IF, I would hope at least 25...

 

[gkekoa]

I'll go 22 and take the over.

23.
13 for kerrigan, 10 for rak. rak will make everyone better though so bowen and everyone else will have high sack totals. rak will also draw plenty of holding calls. jackson and b jenkins will also get some sacks so just saying rak and kerrigan isnt quite right. should be olb's over/under.

I agree. Last year we had 33 total Sacks. I would say we will have over 46 this year total. Rak and Kerrigan will combine for 20 to 23 with more sacks for the other olb and linemen do to these two being on the field. We should also lead the league in takeaways with over 45 as well. They might not get every sack, but the Qb's will be getting rid of the ball when we want them to not when they are ready to.

In 6 combined seasons, neither has ever had a dozen sacks. I don't think 20 would be disappointing at all. 20 would be a nice total to get and would mean both are healthy most/all the year, which would be the biggest plus.

If you want a realistic over/under considering possibility of injury, probably 16.5 or 17.5 would be about right.
