Does Josh value him more highly than a player he's never worked with?
Some of the teams interested in Cutler don't have a decent young qb to
trade to Denver. But, if they overwhelmed Denver with draft picks and
players, does Josh call BB about trading for O'Connell?

Sure, trade him for #12.

I was thinking a 2nd rounder or 2010 pick.

No.

He's too young and inexperienced for Denver and too valuable here behind Brady. We got plenty of draft picks and the pickens are slim at the position this year. You're not going to be able to replace him developmentally with a player Bill apparently graded out a lot higher than a 3rd last year.

Denver either needs a starter as part of the deal (Quinn) or they will go the veteran jag and see what some kid's got route. And if they end up doing the latter they will probably draft a QB somewhere in the first.

...not this again...

They can just draft a player with no NFL experience rather then give up a pick for a player with no NFL experience

First, given the upheaval McDanny has brought upon the Donks, I'd consider it highly unlikely he'd try to parlay again with Pats after blowing up his once Pro Bowl QB to the point McDannyboy's brand new boss had to come out and announce a trade will occur. If McDannyBoy were to appear to be tugging on BB's coattails anymore than Denver fans already suspect he has, then by trying to acquire the Pat's 2nd best QB prospect McDannyboy may be done before he even starts if the team is overwhelmed by the disarray losing a Pro Bowl QB usually brings.

But, secondly, we don't know what McDannyboy saw day after day in practice with O'Connell throwing the ball.

Of course thirdly, BB has no intention of helping the Donks out of their internalized free fall. So if O'Connell is wanted by the Donks it would take a hefty offer (next year's 2nd, minimum) to shake him loose from BB's tree, I'd guess. A new coach who has already f'ed up one QB situation isn't likely to put himself on the boiler again by overpaying his old team for an untested commodity - regardless of how good O'Connell may have looked in practice.

Playing Chris Simms would be the much safer and more conventional move especially if they get a solid #1 for Cutler they can swap for Sanchez or whoever is the QB du jour.

This is not to say I'd rule out an O'Connell trade.

Honestly, I expect them to trade a for a #1 and get Stafford or Sanchez, and let them learn under Simms for a year.

They can't find a team with a decent young QB and they want O'Connell who is young and a QB. So are you saying that O'Connell is more "decent" than every QB on the Jets, 49ers, Lions, Redskins, Bears, Vikings, Bucs and every other team interested in trading for Cutler?

And if he you say yes, what do you base that on: his breathtaking performances last preseason?
