Re: Grossman, Beck or-ton?

A couple of you have mentioned next year, and that to me is the reason to claim him. First, when does his contract run out? If at the end of this year, that's a big reason not to sign him. If he's under contract for next year, that's our 'vet Qb' pickup for 2012 w/6 games left in 11 to see him in practice.

I think it makes sense if he's under contract next year. He could either serve as a stop gap starter or #2 in 2012.

He will be a FA, but thats a positive to me. Grossman is also a FA. If either or both leave and sign with another team we will likely get a compensatory pick for each.

So basically we can get him if the Colts dont want him.

Re: Grossman, Beck or-ton?

Get him and let him be our vet...he's the upgrade over both Beck and Grossman for next year.

Rex and beck should not be even USED in the same sentence..

that said, I'd take my chances with Rex in this system over Orton coming in to learn it.

He does not want to play for the Chiefs. Will get interesting.
Possible deal with the Bears?

Trade deadline has come and gone. Orton either reports or he sits.

Well Leinart just went out and it doesn't look good so that's why I thought they should go after orton but the chiefs would have got him anyway
So far Houstons 3rd string is looking good

What if Orton doesn't make the mistakes that Grossman is prone to make, although Rex knows the system far better than Orton? I'd take my chances on the QB that would make the least amount of mistakes.

Least amount of mistakes? That's Beck. One yard checkdowns and take the sack on third down. If we had a defense better than the 2000 Ravens I'd say sure. 0-0 ties with the possibility of a punt return setting up a FG for the win. Unfortunately we need at least 10 points a game. TY Grossman.
