The "Inside Word" on the QB Search

[MTK]

I was on the Orton bandwagon as well. He would be a good vet to have until a rook is ready to play. And let's not even start with this silliness that he's no better than Grossman. He's been much better over his career at taking care of the ball. 80-57 TD to INT vs 56 TD to 60 INT for Rex.

Depends on the rookie and how long he needs to get ready. If it's 4-6 weeks then fine...but If it's a rookie like Tannehill who may need a year+ to be ready then they need to do better then Orton.

Not sure right now. The answer may be that there's not a better one on the market but then my response would be that they can't aford to go with a rookie other then Luck or RG3 if the best bridge QB available is Orton.
