What would it take to get Orton or Kolb?

Vick can't stay healthy, which makes it more important for them to keep Kolb. Orton maybe.. but he just signed an extension.

Draft a young gun and build around him

 

It would take a lot more to get Kolb, I think. Maybe a 1 and a 3. Perhaps less if he bombs in the game tomorrow.

Orton is intriguing and could potentially come quite cheap. Maybe a 3 only.

I think the much better plan is to take the pick you would have used on Kolb or Orton and use it to move up and draft Mallett. I'm not convinced Orton or Kolb are above-average.

 

I don't want Orton he is not that good. I would rather draft a QB, or trade for Kolb if possible.

 

After watching the bowl games over the past few weeks, I am not sure that any of the college QBs coming out this year (assuming Luck stays in college) are worth moving up to pick (with the exception of maybe Newton), and there is no way we would pick Newton at this point IMO.

However, I also do not think that either Kolb or Orton will be available. Correct me if I am wrong, but didn't Orton sign a two year option earlier this season? And, as for Kolb, I really do not see the Eagles moving him during this offseason.

So what are the options? Honestly, I think that Bud will keep VY for the coming year, and we will see what happens. Next year's QB crop looks alot better to me anyway.

 

Neither or these guys are worth trying for, really.

 

The overall group next year is better. I would love to see us trade up and take Luck if he comes out, but that won't happen. If we take a QB, I'm hoping it's Mallett in the 1st, or Stanzi or Devlin later in the draft. I would love for us to trade for Kolb, but not if it takes a 1st rounder as we will have a top 12 pick, possibly top 10, and you just don't deal those unless you're getting an elite talent.

You're right though, Bud will most likely keep VY, so none of this matters. Hopefully if he does we can get Akukamara with our pick.

 

I wouldn't trade a number one draft choice for either player. Why? Neither Kevin Kolb or Kyle Orton will fix the main problem with the Titans, the defense. The smarter move would be to grab a guy like Shuan Hill or Carson Palmer, both are solid professional QB's, for a backup and let Young audition for our new head coach. Trusting in whoever we bring in WHEN Young gets injured.

Our first round pick needs to be spent on defense (any level as we need help on all three) and then G/C.

If that happens the two most likely outcomes are
1) Young proves himself and with a revamped defense we are able to make a legitament push to the playoffs in 2011

2) Young fails and we are able to bring in a new QB from the talented 2012 draft class and he will be in a much better position to succeed in his rookie year.

 

the real question is why would we want Orton or Kolb

I'll take Orton over Kolb but I'm not sold on either of these two
