Chicago Bound

Yesterday it was reported that the Chicago Bears acquired Jay Cutler from the Broncos for quarterback Kyle Orton, two first round picks and a third round pick. It's been an ongoing struggle between Cutler and the Broncos for the past month and Cutler finally got his wish to be traded. It seems to me that both teams have gotten better with this trade. The Bears of course get a franchise quarterback in Cutler who could change their offense for the better. The Broncos get a young QB in Orton and now have the 12th and 18th pick in the upcoming draft. In a way, Denver may have a better deal because they can improve with two first round picks and already have weapons on offense. Orton just has to fill in and play well and he could emerge as a star just as Cutler did. Chicago will have to completely change their offense from conservative to aggressive. Maybe with Cutler, Devin Hester can finally turn into the wide receiver that Chicago wants him to be. Only time will tell...
