Denver PAID Orton his roster bonus today.

Odds are Denver won't trade him now, it would be stupid to do so after you just paid him his roster BONUS

Maybe it's for the best. I seem to remember Miami making a big FA acquisition from Denver last year that we were all were sure was gonna turn the franchise around and it didn't happen. I liked Orton, but I was in no way convinced that he would come in and set the place on fire or even that he would beat out Henne for that matter.

And he still managed to catch 86 balls for over 1000 yards.

^^Which happened to be his worst since his rookie year and it wasn't close. If we got the same production out of Orton, he would have had trouble beating out Henne.

His worst since his rookie year but way better than any receiver on the Dolphins squad since OJ McDuffie in 1998. 

With Gates speed drawing double teams and keeping the secondary honest, Marshall is gonna catch a LOT more this year.

He doesn't need to catch more passes he needs to get into the endzone more. A hell of a lot more.

That problem wasn't just him, it was the ENTIRE offense.  They moved the ball well between the 20's, but would stall in the red zone.
