Chiefs interested in Soliai and Manning could hold up FA in general
Soliai has suitors, but Peyton chase could be a factor
Posted by Mike Florio on March 13, 2012, 10:56 AM EDT

APMike Freeman of CBSSports.com raised an interesting point earlier today on Twitter.

“When does the Manning backlash begin?“

The answer could be “very soon,” when fans and media begin to realize that Peyton’s indecision could keep teams on the sidelines in free agency.

Multiple league sources have pointed out already that some teams will wait to see whether they land Peyton before opening the change purse for other players. One guy caught in that dilemma, we’re told, is Dolphins nose tackle Paul Soliai.

Soliai played under the franchise tag in 2011, and he’ll hit the market at 4:00 p.m. ET on Tuesday. A league source tells PFT that the Broncos, Dolphins, Chiefs, Colts, 49ers, Patriots, and Falcons are interested.

But three of those teams (Denver, Miami, San Fran) reportedly are (or, at to the Niners, may be) in the Peyton chase. And so, while other teams that aren’t maneuvering for Manning are interested in Soliai, it’s hard to max out the market if half of the interested teams are twiddling their thumbs for Peyton.

The Broncos have the cap space to allow them to start spending while waiting for Peyton. Still, they need to know how to best budget their money, especially if Peyton will be bringing Reggie Wayne and Dallas Clark and Jeff Saturday.

Bottom line? While free agency begins in five hours, it may not really get going until Peyton picks a team.

We were absolutely getting more WINS under Orton last year. If the damn FG unit could block Richard Seymore, he goes undefeated as a starter and somehow gets us into the playoffs.

The WINS came when Orton took over. The offense improved a great deal, hell the defense got better when it didn't have to spend as much time on the field.

You want to play the "winning is the only thing" card - be my guest. This team was a legitimate winner under Kyle Orton; it was not under Matt Cassel.
Minus Kyle Orton's 2 costly interceptions, the Chiefs beat the Raiders and win the division.

People are trying DESPERATELY to see something that just isn't there.

Orton isn't an upgrade, he's a slightly different version of Matt Cassel.

yeah but they also were able to do that becasue they were able to rest becasue Orton kept yet chains moving (til we go to end zone of course). Our D was much better with Orton as our QB.

With a QB who had been with this team for how long? Give Orton a full off season with the playbook and the WRs and I guarantee we would be putting up more than 19 points a game.

What's your plan? You have mine - what's yours? The Redskins and Colts aren't moving their picks. Are you really going to advocate Tannehill? Okay, but you'll probably have to give up a 3rd to move up and grab him; seems like the Dolphins with Sherman may be hard after him.

There are doable steps that can make this team a legitimately excellent team (and yes, I would say possible favorites in the AFC) - how would you do it?
I ALREADY told you.

I like your plan. I just wouldn't sign Orton. It's a waste of money. Cassel's bonuses have been paid and his base salary is only $5.25M.

Orton isn't an upgrade, he's a slightly different version of Matt Cassel.
Manning threw 8 picks in 3 games in 2010.

Everyone throws interceptions if they try to stretch the field. And only one of those 2 picks was truly on Orton. Cassel only threw 7 picks 2 years ago and he was largely useless as an NFL QB that season.

People are DESPERATELY trying to diminish Orton's ability because they spent 3 years doing so while he was in Denver.

The kid can play and he's a very nice fit for this team.

Right.
Cassel's interceptions flat out cost us a win against the Raiders. That knife cuts both ways.

I agree Orton is a better QB than Cassel, he also has a better arm. I'm not sure we could win the Superbowl with him but I'm certain we could win a playoff game.

Orton's career numbers are almost IDENTICAL to Matt Cassel's.

He's not an upgrade, he's a different flavor of the same cheap ice cream.

I like Orton, would like to see him do well. He's solid until it comes to closing time. Always seems to turn it over right when you need it least. He's good enough to Dilfer in to a SB though.

This. I too like the plan it seems the most logical thing to do minus Orton. It is a latteral move that would probably tie the orginization to Orton for several years. I would just as soon wait until next offseason to see what is available then.
