Broncos starting Quarterback Kyle Orton has signed a restricted free-agent tender with Denver, indicating that he will stay with the team through the 2010-2011 season. Orton was tendered at a first-round draft pick, but is not likely to follow the tender-to-trade path that Brandon Marshall took out of town.
With Brandon Marshall’s exit from the Broncos, head coach Josh McDaniels has successfully finished erasing the face of the Shanahan Era from the Denver offense.
The Broncos received two 1st Round picks, two 2nd Round picks & a 3rd Round pick in exchange for the two most recognizable aspects of former Denver coach Mike Shanahan’s highly efficient offense from the 2008-2009 season.
