Grossman definitely isn't a long term answer and Beck is still a major question mark.

I'm absolutely 100% against any trade giving up a pick higher than a 4th rounder. I've seen that story too many times the past decade to know how it ends. It never ends well with us. Never.

If he were on the open market, I wouldn't be opposed to it. Ask yourself this, why is it that they are getting rid of Orton if he's that good? I know you can't go the Tebow route because there was much speculation that they were drafting a QB this past draft. You honestly think Elway believes Tebow is their QB of the future? If he thought that Orton was the man, don't you think he'd keep him?
