Kyle Orton Waived

[jtex316]

The Matt Moore hot-streak won't last forever. The Dolphins should scrape up Orton because when Moore starts to play like his true-self, Orton can come in and be able to at least out-perform JP Losman or whichever other bum the Dolphins have.

I agree with this. THe job stays Moore's until he loses it. Just get rid of JP Freaking Losman! lol

Sunday, I was half expecting to see him throw a pick 6 to his old team.

WOW!!  It would be ironic to claim him and get him for next to nothing. 

[Spider-Dan]

I would like to claim Orton as a backup.  He's better than Losman.

[fyo]

Definitely an improvement over our current backup.

[tubba marxxx]

He's going to end up in Chicago..it makes way too much sense for anything else to happen

Didnt I read that Cutler got hurt and was gone for the year?

Which is why I say it makes sense for Chicago to claim Orton

[Brian Fein]

Chicago, KC, Houston are all looking for QB's.

That said, I wonder what all the buffoons chanting his name in preseason are.  The guy got cut.

Straight up cut.  Not good enough.  Bye.

What a joke.  I'm glad we didn't trade for that bum.

[MikeO]

whats the point? He is a free agent at the end of the year and its not like Miami is going to the playoffs this year. Our season is over. Makes no sense to sign him.

He is a free agent NOW.  He got CUT.

[tubba marxxx]

He is a free agent NOW.  He got CUT.

He got waived..if nobody clams him, then yes, he's a free agent

he was waived, NOT a free agent! And you want a team to give him a long-term deal with 5 games left in the season? WHO DOES THAT!! If you claim him you are signing him for the remainder of this year not giving him a long-term big money deal.

Orton is not going to want a long-term deal anyway, he will want to hopefully get picked up by a team where he can play now or if not then  sign a deal for the rest of the year  where he can play (houston or chicago). Hopefully play well and prove he is worth more $$$ IN THE OFFSEASON!!!! 

Any team that signs Orton long-term now is dumb. Orton signing a long-term deal now with no leverage is dumb. It's not gonna happen!

[fyo]

It's all over the news that Orton is on the waiver wire... but is he?

The rule is 4 years of credited service. Or at least it was under the old CBA.

Orton has that and more, so under the old CBA, he'd be a free agent.

I wouldn't mind seeing him come in here as protection in case Moore gets hurt because like others have said Losman is fucking terrible. However I think Chicago is in worse shape as far as the QB situation goes with Cutler down and Haynie as their current QB. Lineart is absolute trash as well but for some reason I can not explain Houston seems to think they can still win with this clown at QB so I am not sure they pick him up. However doesn't the waiver wire work based upon team records? If Miami puts in a claim, based on that then he doesn't end up in Chicago or Houston.

I do feel he will be in Chicago however!!!!!
