b) was my point. Orton and Campbell were not-bottom-10 QBs last year who have already taken backup money (and in Campbell's case, a shot at the market next season). Garrard might go two weeks without a phone call (it's been like two months already). McNabb might not get a text until June, when Miami is that desperate.
And Flynn might have to re-up with Green Bay if Miami isn't willing to make him their starter.
The Flynn saga is interesting because two reports from his camp suggested that: 1) he's getting interest from Miami and Seattle and 2) he's getting interest from Cleveland and Miami. Ergo, the only interest he's actually getting is Miami. But you always need to give the impression of a second suitor.
Flynn might end up back as GB's backup in 2012 on a one year deal in the Campbell range for money.
