QB Orton still starter for the Broncos

"Here is the refrain, so get used to it:

"Kyle's on our roster."

"He's the starter."

"He had another good day of practice."

The Broncos have been on the field for two days in this training camp and coach John Fox has summed up the quarterback swirl around the team with that each time.

And after Friday drew to a close, some things were still pretty clear in the murky world of quarterbacks for the Broncos.

They were:

Orton is still indeed on their roster, having not been moved despite so many opinions to the contrary in recent days.

He's still the best quarterback the Broncos have.

And that isn't what the legion of Tim Tebow? fans want to hear at this point.

The Orton-on-the-trading-block story was one of the league's hottest topics as camps began to open this week. But then the Titans signed Matt Hasselbeck, the Cardinals traded for Kevin Kolb, Donovan McNabb went to Minnesota and Seattle added Tarvaris Jackson and Matt Leinart ended up with the Texans.

That left Miami as a potential landing spot for Orton, and the two sides did have some discussions about what to do with Orton's contract if a trade could be made.

After some back and forth, the Dolphins signed John Fox's former starting quarterback in Carolina, Matt Moore, and gave him a two-year deal for $5 million that could top $7 million if some incentives are hit."
