Dumb move by Denver, smart move by Chicago.

The Bears don't have the receiving core a QB like Cutler needs.

And the broncos did? Marshall and Royal don't exactly make an elite receiving core.

<-- jumping on Kyle Orten bandwagon.

^same, Kyle Orton is a very impressive QB, and will have a great season. I'm also surprised how fast Chicago jumped on this deal, of all the teams that need a QB, Chicago, I expected to suck again behind Bad-Rex.

Otron is a very impressive QB? Where do you guys get this shit?

seriously. if i were denver, i'd rather draft 2 QBs with the 2 1st round picks the bears gave me and then have the 3 of them battle it out for the starting position. what idiots for trying to trade cutler and then deciding not to. that stuff might work in baseball, but not in football.

Marshall and Royal isnt an elite duo? Name 2 better duos (2 because boldin and fitz are the obvious #1).

Cutler will have an average season, as will Orton. Orton sucks my dick, and only will have a good season because of the Marshall/Royal duo. But who knows when youre depending on BUCKHALTER as your primary RB, lol. Im curious to see how this tea will fare without shannahan, also.

I think Denver got the better deal when its all said and done. Orton doesnt make much money, and they get 2 first and 1 3rd rounder. They can always go after a QB in free agency next year. Hell, they can package their first rounder this year, along with their second rounder, and move into around #6 or so (or wherever Seattle is drafting), and get Sanchez. Theyd still a #1 this year, and 2 #1s next years. Maybe Denver can draft some fucking DEFENSE with the remaining picks. That way Seattle can reload a little also, since thay have a couple/few years left with Hasselbeck at the helm. Itd be win/win for Seattle and Denver.

I am just glad that a lot of mock drafts have Philly taking Wells or Moreno with pick #21, along with Beatty or Oher at pick #28. Thatd be a very successful draft, teamed up wit the safety from WMU (Forget his name).
