Another rumor recently was that Broncos QB Brock Osweiler was the #2 quarterback in Denver. If this is true then QB Caleb Hanie must not be very good considering the Broncos are choosing Osweiler over Hanie. I’m not saying Osweiler doesn’t have potential, but he is a rookie and the Broncos need a dependable veteran backing up Peyton Manning.If the Moore rumor is true and the Dolphins are shopping him, then yes, I hope the Broncos do go after Moore if it is possible. Moore would boost the competition in Denver and I feel he would give the Broncos a better chance of winning if Manning was to go down with an injury.
Moore has played in 35 games in the NFL as a QB. He started 13 games for the Dolphins last season and threw for 2,500 yards, 16 tocuhdowns, and 9 picks. He also recorded a respectable 87.1% QB rating and a 60.5 completion percentage. If he would have had the opportunity to play the full 16 games as the starter he may have thrown for 3,000+ yards and 20+ touchdowns.
If Manning did get injured and someone else had to step in and lead a playoff-caliber team you wouldn’t want that guy to be Osweiler, who is a rookie. If Hanie has already lost the No. 2 spot to Osweiler then the Broncos need to do all that they can in order to get Moore to join them.

I don't think it makes sense to trade Moore since Tannehill would be left without a vet for guidance and Pat Devlin is then the backup? Unless the team plans on keeping David Garrard when he returns from rehab. What could we get from Denver?
 
Article is from August 6th and with DG being out we have to keep Moore.
 
That would be a big mistake to trade. I don't want him to be the starter, but I want for this team to have a capable backup QB.
 
NOTHING!! the broncos signed the manning thinking they would go to the superbowl. they are just like us with no recievers. WE ARE NOT TRADING MOORE. the management can go lick a monkey's ass
 
After some players being mad about Chad being cut and the fact that the locker room is behind Moore since he was their leader last year...this would be a bad move. Plus you'd essentially be handing the team over to Tannehill instead of letting him earn it...not sure how that would sit with the team right now.
 
This article was written before Garrard got hurt. With Garrard down, I just don't see us trading away our only healthy veteran at QB.
 
This makes no sense for us as a team or Matt as a player. He has the opportunity to start here or sit on the sidleines in Denver. We only have a rookie and a work in progress behind Moore. Never happen.
 
We´re going to be VERY good within 3 years, and having one of the best Backup QBs in the league during that time, is crutial...
 
well... it didn't make sense to trade marshall when we did either. No reason why we wouldn't trade moore, esp with devlin looking capable and then when garrard comes back he's the number 2.
 
This makes 0 sense. MM has a place on this team, as the #2.
 
and meanwhile, Elvis phoned to confirm there were tickets left in call waiting for the Texans game.
 
Can you guys stop posting this freakin' crap. This article is old and obviously things are different now with DG being out for the knee scope.
