today it was reported that Matt Cassel was traded to the Kansas City Chiefs along with vetern linebacker
Mike Vrabel for a second round draft pick. when i first read the story on yahoo sports i thought
they for sure left something out. i found it hard to believe that they gave up both guys for one
draft pick. sure enough it was true. being a patriots fan i expected to get more out of it because
Cassel proved to be a worthy starting quarterback in the NFL. this is an awful trade! maybe Scott
Pioli cashed in on afavor with this one? even so, bad move on the patriots part, i think they
should have got a firstround pick from Cassel alone. on the upside of things the patriots get their
1st Round pick (23rdoverall), three 2nd round picks and maybe an additional 3rd round pick because
of the AsanteSamuel deal with philly last off season. oh yeah, the patriots also get their
All-Universe star QBback this season, you may have heard of him, Tom Brady. no big deal.
