NFL Draft Prospect of the Week: Brian Orakpo

A fifth-year senior from Texas, defensive end Brian Orakpo is a physically dominating player and one of the most disruptive defensive forces in the country.

Perhaps his greatest attribute, though, is his ability to pressure the passer. Check out more with this Illustrated Profile of Brian Orakpo...
