Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
Quinn's arrival raised questions in Denver about who would be the starter in 2010. But McDaniels, speaking at the NFL owners' meetings in Orlando, said Orton has earned the right to begin camp as the Broncos' starter. "He's a guy who made the most of an opportunity he was given last year," McDaniels said before stressing Quinn is there to push the incumbent. "Brady's a player who fits a lot of the qualities and characteristics we look for in our QBs. ... It made sense for us to try to improve the competition at that position just like it does when we try to improve our competition at any position. ... " No surprise here. That's been McDaniels' approach at every position since his arrival in Denver.
