My starting QB is Jay Cutler
My backup was Brady Quinn...but since Eric Mangini is a moron, he is starting Derek Anderson

My pick up options are limited
Shaun Hill vs ATL
Kyle Orton vs NE
Kerry Collins vs IND
Byron Leftwich @ PHI

Keep in mind, Im gonna have to keep this guy as my permanent backup, which sucks.

im leaning toward Orton

The funny thing is my team is 3rd in scoring but 1-3 and in 9th place.

Cutler outscored Orton in the 3 weeks that I lost...but STILL

Cant help but think if I had Orton in there my team would have found a way to win.

Why would you consider Leftwich? He is now the 3rd string QB in Tampa Bay, with Josh Freeman the starter. I am in a similar position as you with Cutler on a bye. I am watching the Eli Manning heel injury situation...if Eli missed the game, I'm starting David Carr of the Giants at home against the dreaded Oakland Raiders. From your list, I probably go with Hill, but something tells me that Kerry Collins will be throwing to ball all day playing catch up with the Colts.

You could do worse than Orkman. Much worse.
