Orton or Flacco WHIR

Postby zacks288 » Sun Sep 26, 2010 12:27 pm

My QB is Peyton and I want a solid back up in case Peyton doesn't play the last 3 games of the season last year. Right now I have Henne but Orton and Flacco are both on the trading block for cheap. Which of the 3 would be the best back up in a standard scoring league? I'm thinking Orton but not sure.
During Peyton's bye and weeks 14-16 of the season,
Henne plays: Pit, @NYJ, BUF, DET
Orton plays: OAK, @ARI, @OAK, HOU
Flacco plays: BUF, @HOU, NO, @CLE

Thanks. WHIR

Flacco, but only if you don't hurt yourself getting him. I would be leery of dismantling any of your starting components for a backup QB. Not sure when your league's playoff's start, but I would be surprised if Peyton get's to rest as much this season. Hope that helps!

Thanks. I should be able to get Flacco for Cadillac (my 4th string running back). I wouldn't have to trade away any of my starters as Flacco and Orton are the back ups on their respective teams.
