not to mention the possibility that Cassel is this years Derek Anderson, falls on his buttocks in KC and Pioli's career in KC starts off with a thud.

From who?

Because Pioli sure as hell won't care what us fans think.

somebody tell this dumbass that nobody thought Ryan/Flacco were gonna do what they did either

Proctor just sprung wood.

Nah. Business is business.

i can live with him for a 3rd or a 4th pick. a 2nd seems a bit high, but if pioli wants him for our 2nd pick i'll bite my toungue.

I don't want anything to do with him if we need to pay him $15 million dollars for next year. Let the Pats keep that salary.

no thanks

Yep.

SOMEONE is going to be forced to pay him a shit-ton of money, I hope it's not us.

As usual in situations like this new deal is worked out before the trade is made. This what we did when we traded for Surtain.

:) No more out of you chuckles.

It is really hard to judge what Cassel is worth. He could end up being pretty darn good, or just about average. It is too bad that he did not get put on the spot in a playoff situation. He helped the team go 11-5, what could he have done with the added pressure? It is good and bad for him. On one hand, he did not get the chance to flop. On the other, if he had a good playoff run....he would be in line for a big payday and the Pats would have easily gotten a few nice trade offers. Was what he did during the season a fluke, did the team situation do it all for him, was it Welker and Moss? Who knows right now....

Neither of those QB's did anything outstanding. They managed games well enough for their good teams to win. If either was in K.C., they wouldn't have even been considered good.

Matt Ryan 16 TD's 11 Int's 16 games started

Joe Flacco 14 TD's 12 Int's 16 games started

Tyler Thigpen 18 TD's 12Int's 11 games started

Nothing outstanding. Would I be glad to have them? Yes. I would also be glad to have a lot of the players on their offenses.

Cassell
 

If the Patriots would accept a 3rd rounder I would jump on it. I think they will more likely ask for a 1st and accept a 2nd.

It's a little far fetched but I would love to p/up Haynesworth in Free agency then draft Oher or Curry in the first, trade the 2nd for Boldin, and our 3rd for Cassell. We still have a ton of young players on our roster. This would make us much better on both offense and defense. Do we have enough money?

why aren't you banned anyway?
