How likely is Kyle Orton to become a Panther?

[bleys]

not likely, Volek would be cheaper.

what does that mean?

a useless QB would be cheaper.. lol

Exactly. Every Panther fan should pay attention to this guy. He speaks the truth.

Trust me, you'll want to stay away from Orton. It may seem tempting now, but it'll be a mistake on your part and a wasted pick nonetheless.

and what jackass really thinks Orton is here to stay? we need a 3-4 year stop gap, so get a fuging clue.. Orton will make us more competitive than anyone else.. unless you just want to see horrible football until we finally make that happen, bring in Orton..

I don't understand why you say this. What reasons do you have to say that he is not a franchise qurterback? He has already led a team to the superbowl (Bears, 07). Also look what he did with the Broncos.

I thought Rex was their starter in 07?

'06 Bears starting QB was Rex Grossman. '05 and '08 Bears starting QB was Orton. He was a game manager in his days in Chicago backed by a strong ground game. He went to Denver and with McDaniels coaching he became more than that, putting up some good looking stats. The only problem is, those stats didn't equal wins.

Orton is garbaggio

...your point? I was agreeing with you...

[Kakarot]

Not very likely; atleast thats what I'm hoping. Orton is hot gahbage

At the end of the day, I couldn't care less as I'm not a Panther lol.. but you're the one who needs to get a clue dude. Only a moron will waste a 3rd rounder on a journeyman QB one year after having drafted what was supposed to be a franchise QB.

That's two wasted picks in a row. Not gonna happen. That's how you get set back for years to come.

I'm telling you. That 3rd rounder will be spent elsewhere, Rivera will utilize Clausen and try have it worked out. If that fails, look for your 2012 first round pick to be spent on your franchise QB in a deep QB draft class. Not exactly rocket science.

I prolly should have quoted the other guy. Just posting the evidence. I'm real confused how someone could watch the NFL and not remember how Rex was clowned that year for "leading" his team to the SB. I think Orton is a very average to above average QB (not what we need) but confused why someone thought he QB'd that SB team.

This is a good post and I agree with it.

However, this team is also going to evaluate it's options.

We are looking for a solid veteran QB, whether that's a McNabb or whomever-this Organization had made it well known they want to win as soon as possible. This team has, for the most part already been built for the future-now we're looking at our options to make us competitive this season.

You are correct Grossman was their starter, but due to Grossmans frequent injury's, Orton played most of the season.

[koolkatluke]

What about Alex smith? We wouldn't have 2 give up Draft picks 2 get him.

Other then that I like Marc Bulger for the same reason.

Most of what season?
