Per NFLPA records, Orton is signed through 2009, at a base salary of $995,000.

Re: Cutler to Bears

Wow. Nice haul for the Broncos, although they now have to look for another franchise guy at QB.

Makes the deal the Pats* got for Cassel look pretty pathetic.

Re: Cutler to Bears

Yea this deal is insane. I'd expect at least something of that magnitude for Big Ben but Cutler hasn't won sh.it. The Broncos made out like bandits. I'm sure McDaniels is throwing a damn party right now with that haul.

Re: Cutler to Bears

Sorry to disagree, but this is a fair deal for the Bears. They haven't had a quality QB since the punky QB known as McMahon.

Cutler should be there for the next 10 years at least.

Cutler hasn't proven that he can win consistently enough in the NFL. I'll take the Bronco's end of this deal all day, 4 players for 1 player any time. They can package multiple picks and move up and get a quarterback if they choose or go with Orton and shore up the defense and look for a quarterback next year. I'll take the picks all day.

Hypothetically, what would Ben bring?

Do you know how many times just last year Denver's D gave up over 30 points? NINE times. Yes, in more than half of their games they allowed 30+ points.

One of those teams was the Browns.

The Browns. Think about that.

The Browns.

Cutler will be fine in Chicago. Mark my words.

Re: Cutler to Bears

It's a minor point perhaps, but as I understand it the Broncos give:

Cutler
2009 3rd round pick

and the Bears give

2009 first round pick
2010 first round pick
Orton

I think the Bears got the better end of the bargain, but not by much.

[feltdizz]

Re: Cutler to Bears

Denver made out... everyone says the D sucked so getting an NFL starting QB, although it is Orten, 2 1st and a 3rd is a damn great job..

go hard on D early and try to get to 8-8 this year with Orten.. then go after a QB next year..

Cutler and a 5th to the Bears? The Bears D is no better then Denvers...

also remember Denver had a 3 game lead.. played the Bills, the Raider and San Diego I think, and Cutler had 2TD's and 5 INT's in that stretch...

then he demands a trade...refuses to go to work, sells 2 houses and then says he hasn't heard from management when all he has to do is go to work... and then says he never wanted to be traded.

dude is off IMO... he went in hard on the trade deal.. and I think he will be just as good as he was in Denver.. great stats but bad INT's late in games..

No. Actually, it is this:

Broncos give:

Cutler
2009 fifth round pick


Bears give:

Orton
2009 first round pick
2009 third round pick
2010 first round pick

Re: Cutler to Bears

I'm just glad he didn't go to the Browns.......

I think they gave up too much for him though. Plus the Bears don't have near the wideouts that Denver did. Better give him some decent receivers to throw to.

Re: Cutler to Bears

Actually, he is probably the most talented QB they have had since Sid Luckman 50-whatever years ago!

Re: Cutler to Bears

When you've gone as long as the Bears have w/out having a great (or even good) QB, this is a great deal for them!!
