LANDOVER, Md. -- If there's anything NFL coaches like to see from young players, it's an ability to learn from their mistakes. So when Redskins quarterback Colt Brennan -- one week after throwing an interception in Pittsburgh's red zone -- was picked off by New England's Jonathon Wilhite on the Patriots goal line, it had to set off some warning lights for Washington's staff.

It certainly did amongst the Redskins fans in FedEx Field. As Wilhite rumbled 99 yards for a New England score, the disgruntled Washington faithful let it all out.

"Keep giving away points, Colt!" ... "There goes your roster spot, buddy!"

When I anointed Brian Orakpo as the ideal pick for the Washington Redskins in the first round of the draft, I sort of assumed they'd do something about the offensive line later in the draft. You see, heading into the offseason, the Redskins really had one glaring issue: The sack ratio. They allowed 38 -- in a division full of pass-rushing fiends -- and only accrued 24 themselves. I'm aware that Greg Blache's defensive scheme doesn't chase the passer, but pressuring him with a front four means that's less time the coverage has to do their job. Orakpo helps take care of that with his outside push.
