It's all about what the market is worth. I believe Cassel is worth more too, but when they made the Schaub trade more stocks were worth a whole lot more on Wall Street at that time. The same logic can be said here and unfortunately the Pats had to sell.

Borges actually had a good article today on this trade (BB is Einstein in a hoodie). More like he took his friend Pioli.

Was Schaub worth two 2's? Just because one team messed up, it doesn't mean others should follow suit especially when they have the hindsight of the Schaub deal to observe.

At least until you invest two minutes of critical thinking into the idea.

Just another tired excuse to dredge up spygate. Say yourself the time of clicking the link. Waste of time. FTW, I want my 5 minutes back

This article is about baiting Pat's fans into raging in his comments section and blowing up his page hits.

And in other news, Eastabrook is calling on Goodell to investigate why the Indians sold Manhattan for $24 of beads.

at first, I thought the pats got hosed, but the more I think about it, the more I think it was fair value.......and no, there would have been no #12 pick from denver......it was a 3 way deal with the bucs with the pats getting the bucs #1 suppsedly, and the bucs getting cutler

fact is, why would BB want to put cassel under the only guy he was successful for? I'd take less from the chiefs, also.......

but I also believe that deal wasn't real

hell, even borges is giving BB kudos on this deal saying that BB wouldn't do a favor for his mom.......

and you can't compare to schaub.....schaub was still under contract for cheap......
