The only ones I would take over Campbell are Cutler and Quinn, and then maybe Trent Edwards and a big maybe to Matt Leinart.
But even as good as I thought Quinn was coming out of Notre Dame, remember that I advocated against selecting him...pretty much because Jason Campbell was/is the man.

Similarities between Orton and Roethlisberger:
-Starting QBs in the NFL
-Played in spread offenses in college
-Unflattering pictures involving whiskey exist of them on the internet
That's more or less where it ends.

I might add overly confident. It's obvious about Ben but I've heard several commentators say it about Orton now.

Also...Aaron Rodgers looks better and say what you will about Vince Young but he has lead his team to the playoffs and has a winning record with worse WR's and TE's than JC has at his disposal...
Hey BC, you might want to change your avatar to a more blue and grey one ;).
I think Vince Young is debatable. The young man wins games but he's also a liability in the passing department, and now that his mental health is also in question it would be a tough one. In the end I think the decision comes down to what somebody would rather have: A really good quarterback, or a really bad passing quarterback that can make running plays and is also more of a winner.
Oh yeah and since I know you are going to read this and think that I am saying Jason Campbell is a really good quarterback, I'm not. Just an fyi.
well done getting this on the WP insider

Aaron Rogers far and away. The way he's handled the pressures so far of being the man to follow the legend immediately rates him over Vince "stop picking on me" Young or Matt "I'd rather be hot tubbing" Leinhart. I don't think Orton or Anderson will have long sustained careers but both can be really good journeymen much like Trent Dilfer.
I think JC could have been just as good as Rogers but he didn't have the luxury to sit behind a legend and learn and watch. Instead he backed up a qb the fan base hated and they called for him constantly and stunted his growth by throwing him in too early.
Right now Aaron Rogers is the only one on that list I'd rather have. Though in time Russell, Quinn, Cutler, Edwards, Flaco and Ryan might be franchise QB's too.

I like quinn, i think he will wind up somewhere as a grat qb...if anderson has a decent year look for him to demand a trade
