Cassel Traded to Chiefs

[Sparkman]

Who will New England's backup QB be now?

Watch them sign Rex Grossman.

 

[BillD1984]

I heard the possibility that MAYBE, New England could get K.C.'s high draft pick.

Bill, if the Pats get such a high pick, who would you take?

Do you mean the Chiefs first round pick?

 

[SabresRule]

Do you mean the Chiefs first round pick?

Yes.

 

[BillD1984]

That's a good question Sabres, but believe it or not, I think the Pats would rather the Chiefs second round pick (along with the Chiefs taking on $18M in salary).

The Pats generally don't like to give BIG money to draft picks, but if they had the Chiefs first round pick, they wouldn't have a choice.

 

[dfergie]

It is a good system, look at who Brady repaced...

 

[SabresRule]

Bill, the reason I mentioned possibly the Pats' getting KC's first-round pick is that N.E. could get one of the prize players in the draft.

Maybe a good offensive tackle (Cassel got beaten up in the Denver and Pittsburgh games, and of course, a missed block led to the brady injury).

I hear ya buddy, but I'm telling you, the Pats don't like to spend big money on high draft picks.

The Pats have an above average O-Line. They REALLY need to address their aging defense.

Bill, put yourself in New England's shoes on draft day- what do you do with all those picks?

Corner, safety and inside linebacker is the biggest area of need.

Where is KC's 1st pick, 2-3 ???

KC's second round is what they got right, like 34 ?
I doubt that James Laurenitis will be there that late, but if he is, they will take him there.
They wanted him last year ... adding him to Mayo from last year and they are set for many years.

Jimbo,
I'm hoping the Pats can get Laurenitis with their pick (somewhere in the middle of the first round).

Adding Laurenitis to Mayo would be sweet indeed! :up

Good point,
I forgot about NE actual pick ....

 

[cybok0]

Maybe Brady will get hurt again, and no one to back him(One can only hope).

What will Bellicheat do then?

 

[cybok0]

Leave Thompson out of this. This is about the Pats and Chiefs.

You're a mod now?

Answer to meStevo: Cassell was a product of the system especially early in the season until he got his feet wet. Once he got more familiar w/playing they took the reins off and OH Baby did the talent come out! He was like a'Brady clone" when the pressure was on-terrific. Kevin O'connell is 6'5, 230 and a gun of an arm-he'll be real good.Also, Matt Guitteirez(sic) will also be a good qb-he's 6'5, 230 as well w/good arm. Pats are set for now. Bad trade if only a 2nd for those 2 players. Word is more pics to be worked out. Personally, I would have kept Cassell and TRADED BRADY! My friends think I'm nuts for this but you watch-Cassell will be great. Paul

I think you're nuts too. Cassel has played 1 measly season. ONE! Let's not crown his ass just yet.

For some reason the comparsion that keeps coming to me is "Scott Mitchell"

C'mon Scott had at least one good season with the Lions.

 

[Mr Tony]

C'mon Scott had at least one good season with the Lions.

Isnt that an oxymoron?

"good season" and "Lions"
