Could be.  Could be that it worked to his advantage.  Plenty of guys have
developed by sitting the bench and watching for a couple years.

The dangerous thing about passing judgment on Orton is that the line played
better for him than for the other two.  A lot better.  This could be because
they were able to insert St. Clair at guard.  At 6'5", they couldn't have
done that with Grossman.
