I think one danger we as fans might be overlooking is that bringing in a new quarterback you run the risk that he'll play much better than any of the current guys and confuse the plan. The plan being, management decides if the guy is Cassel and if it's not, they go look for a real franchise QB.
I don't want there to be any chance Orton is the starter next opening day. I'd rather it were Cassel. If it's Cassel, then we know the team didn't see better options out there and so he will stopgap for us. If we switch then you have another guy who needs at least a year to prove or disprove himself... it sets us back.
