Mike Lombardi Links Kyle Orton to the Redskins

The chatter at senior bowl huh?

Signing Orton doesn't make much sense as people have pointed out for various reasons

my reason is that signing a Kyle Orton, FA QB, that was available twice last year (offseason/then waiver wire) would be akin to admitting they made yet another mistake at the QB and that they essentially wasted a year with Rex Grossman for no good reason

Love it...but with Luck I wouldn't even care who the bridge QB is because I would hope he would start from day 1.

Luck is definitely starting right away, but you need a veteran backup.

I was a big supporter of KO coming last year but now I want RG3 or luck

Remember the good old days when we headed that bandwagon skinsfaninok? ahhhhh.....

I hope the hell not, rather keep Grossman then.

Orton would be an excellent backup. Luck and orton is basically a dream scenario.

Kyle Orton and Nick Foles. Sign me up.

Agreed. But we have more leverage in a trade up for Luck if we have a viable alternative on the roster. Moreover, Orton makes a good spot starter in case of unLucky injury.

Orton = Grossman in my book. Gets drafted by the Bears and doesn't turn out to be a franchise QB, gets traded to the Bronco's and does not do very well turns out he's not a franchise QB otherwise they would not have traded him to KC where amazingly enough turns out he was not their answer to having a franchise QB.

I don't t see the novelty and hope the coaching staff does not either.

That's what I'm saying. Orton is basically the same guy has Grossman. Just don't see any reason why we'd sign him.

Luck is not coming here. I have no idea why anyone is even talking about that option. He's 99.9% going to Indy.
