Looking at him I'm undecided...seems like pass rushers like Gastineau, Garrett, Haley, Jason Taylor, and even LT and Thibodeaux ( running Giants TT) seem at least as good or better.
Orakpo cards have played well in other Maddens but that was because of abilities.
What are you guys thinking about this Orakpo card ?
Monster strength. Should be a sick end
He has AKA Unstoppable Force XF, if that is as good as last year he will be on every team by next week.

But it's 4 AP. Waste of that much AP. It's only on for a few plays and off for 8 (comp) .It's way too expensive IMO
My thoughts are that he’s too slow and his good Xfactor is too AP intensive. There are better pass rushers available and Ive never been convinced Strength matters all that much. Some of his other stats are mid.

Not a truly elite / S-tier pass rusher, IMO. Gastineau, Chuck Haley... there's bunches i'd run before considering Osackpo... or whatever bastardized nickname EA decided to apply. YMMV, but unless yer running Commanders theme team, probably pass. Even then, you can do better.
I'd say he's roughly on par with the free Myles Garrett (88 OVR): https://www.mut.gg/compare/#15520117:0,10412520:0
