Orton, a fourth-round draft pick, was considered a Heisman Trophy candidate until he tore an abdominal muscle midway through the season Orton completed 58.8 percent of his passes for 9,337 yards and 63 touchdowns with 28 interceptions at Purdue. He had seven 300-yard passing games, including one 500-yard game and two 400-yard games. Running back Cedric Benson is the Bears' only remaining unsigned pick. ========================================= [color=orange][size=7]Except for that game against Wisconsin, it looked like Kyle Orton would have a better Season than Drew Brees...
