Bears took Kyle Orton in the 4th round.

 

Edit: Anyone who knows, what (if anything) separates Orton from Dan Orlovsky?

 

Couldnt really tell you, but I think Orlovsky may be a little more mobile and I believe has a stronger arm..

Eh'.

 

His stock dropped a lot over the off-season.

 

People believe he doesn't have a lot of quarterback intellegence, can't throw the deep ball, zero mobility and most importantly, get's really flustered when things start going wrong.

 

That said, I'm not thrilled with the selection of Orton. But, I'll give the kid a chance. He had first round written all over him before the injury. Who knows, he may end up being the jewel of the class.

That sounds like Craig Krenzel.

You aren't the quarterback at THE Ohio State University if you don't have a good quarterback IQ and a boat-load of intangibles.

 

I think Orlovsky is more physically talented, but he can't even compare with Krenzel upstairs.

Krenzel's bound to be a quarterbacks coach someday.

There went LeFors to Carolina.

 

I guess he was going earlier than expected.

 

I really like LeFors; although the odds are against him, I think he may be a starter in the NFL one day. His size is a far cry from most NFL QBs, but he has an excellent head on his shoulders and close-mid range acuracy that is second to none.

 

Ah yes, congrats to Duke Preston, the first Illinois player selected!

Colts selected Illinois' Kelvin Hayden in the 2nd round...
