revhookem Posted May 4, 2006 Author Share Posted May 4, 2006 Don't be surprised if Orlovsky wins the starting job in camp. This kid was a winner everywhere he played (ok, so High School and College). He's big, strong and smart. With Martz over there, he could bring out the best in him and make him a star. 1450379[/snapback] I will be surprised, and I'm guessing the coaching staff will be as well -- otherwise why bring in BOTH Kitna and McCown? I'm inlcined to think that the Detroit plan is to hope McCown is capable of starting and being a long term solution, but being unsure of that they have Kitna who is more of a known and upon whom they can rely for a season or two while either McCown or Orlovsky develops... or both fail, at which time they go to plan B. I still think the starting QB of Detroit is worth a late-round flyer in fantasy... and being in a dynasty league myself, I'm leaning toward taking a chance on McCown if he is still available in the last 2-3 rds of our draft.

I think we will be a middle of the pack passing team with excellent upside since we should be throwing from behind alot and the addition of Martz.

loyalboyd Posted May 8, 2006 Share Posted May 8, 2006 I think McCown will win this job. And take this team to another level. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
