Pioli gave the guy 63 million without him taking one snap as a member of the Chiefs.

Firing a head coach that makes about 2.5 million a year is far different than getting rid of the mistake that has already provided a sunk cost of 28 million and a 2nd round pick.
Just because he's already sunk 28 million doesn't mean he'll just allow Cassel to keep starting. That makes no sense.

Yes, Pioli thought Cassel was a franchise QB. That doesn't mean that after 3 underwhelming years, he can't change his mind.

Why provide no competition either then?

Sounds like a ton of wishful thinking on your part.

Why sign Orton? I know we couldn't go on with Palko, but why not bring in a QB that wouldn't have a chance to unseat Cassel? We could have brought in anumber of washed up QBs sitting at home that could be signed for a few weeks and dumped, and that would have been cheaper.

I think Cassel very well could be the QB next season, but if the coach believes someone else is better, I don't think Pioli is forcing them to start him.

I'm on the fence about signing Orton. I prefer him to Cassel by leaps and bounds, but if we sign him AND KEEP CASSEL, guys like Stanzi or anyone we draft late in this draft will never see the field. The only way I want us to sign Orton is if we actually cut ties with Cassel.

Yes, and if Pioli wanted no competition for Cassel he wouldn't have bothered bringing in Orton.

This post makes no sense.

There is no way Orton resigns with Cassel still on the roster. He'd be better off to sign with a team that has an unsteady young QB that could take a step back or a team caught without a QB for next year.

What the Raiders fan has said is true, our customs are different. What Al Davis has said is unimportant, and we do not hear his words.
