Orlovsky found his way into the starting lineup for the first time in a few seasons, starting the last five games of the season for the Colts. He played pretty well, especially if you consider how the Colts struggled so much throughout the season. Orlovsky completed 63 percent of his passes and had six touchdowns to four interceptions. He had scores each of his last five games and topped 240 yards three of those games. But to be fair, all wasn't perfect for Orlovsky. He threw for less than 140 yards in his other two starts and really struggled in those contests. He did show some life in a starting role, though, and while he didn't likely earn a starting job in 2012, he should be the top backup for the Bucs this season. Orlovsky is athletic, moves around the pocket well and has a plus arm. He has struggled with accuracy and decision making, but made progress in those areas last season.

Orlovsky proved last season he can help a little if pressed to start. He has some big-game ability. He'll take some chances downfield so he is worth a waiver wire look if starting. |
