I've said it another thread so I'll say it here.
I don't want Peyton Manning and the huge contract that will come with a 35 year old broken QB. He's only been sacked 231 times in 13 years (You can't really count 2011 as a 0, can you?). Do the math, that's 18 (I rounded up) times a season. We gave up 34 last year. Roughly double. Of course he makes the offensive line better somewhat but do you want to have him getting hit for sacks at twice the rate he's used to? This doesn't even take into consideration plays where the QB gets hit but not sacked. (I admit I didn't look a long time for the QB hit stat). At 35 the body doesn't bounce back like it did at 25.
Keep Orton for two years.
Cut or trade Cassel. I don't care which.
Draft Tannehill at 1.11.
Let Tannehill and Stanzi fight for QB2.
