It's easy, and only takes a few moments.I probably overstated "happy", but big picture, to get a #3 for a guy who looked like he'd walk for nothing this time last year and also keep him from going to the Jets now that we know he's good, that's a win for us. But, sure, looking at it right now I do think we should get more than a #3 for him.
I've said since whenever that if we trade we'll get a 2nd and a conditional 2010 - and id be happy with that. If its KC's no 2 that's still a good place to be
Like it or not Cassel is not 'seen' around the league as this great QB and he IS a risk after just one season with the HOF receivers he has
Lets not be greedy .. only way we get a first is if there's a bidding war or some horse trading
I would take KC's 2nd, Tony Gonzalez, and a 2010 2nd in a heartbeat providing TB's good to go (and I see no reason why he wouldn't be) after what will basically be a whole year's recovery
A significant chunk of them qualify as geniuses and would strenuously object to a 'one year wonder who threw to Moss.' I listed KC as my personal favorite for Matt and for the #34 pick this year - it's right where I want to draft Connor Barwin or Louis Delmas.Why the 2 stars? I thought I brought up a good point, that, after much reading, I have not seen brought up. There was a huge resistance in KC to giving up the 3rd pick overall, but I bet the fans there may find this acceptable, and perhaps Pioli too.
Who are you? Adam Schefter?
You can though get a reasonable idea of how he's perceived in general from reading the fan forums - not talking the nutjobs here but the overall view
I agree with that. The bigger part to me, though, is ensuring he doesn't stroll down to NJ and solve The Jest's QB problem.

....For Cassel. Every time people talk about a trade to KC, they say it would require their first pic this year. I could definately see them giving their second this year, and a first next year, perhaps with a conditional 5th or 6th if the 2010 pick was higher than 20 or something. 35th pick would be pretty nice
does anyone really think pioli will give up so much to get cassel. If there is anything pioli did here was to build up draft picks for the future and i expect him to do so in KC too. Also he wouldnt be interested in giving him a 8-10 mill dollar contract.
Nah, im better looking

Oh, your talking about Fan Forums - Well that explains it.
I look at those as well, and not only is Cassel not very good, but Brady sux, is over rated and a system QB - So if we are going by what our counterparts say on other boards, we need to cut the whole team and fire Belichick......because he's a cheater, ya know.

Fair play, I stepped into that one .. but some of the posters are quite level headed and you can get a sort of sense from the better ones of how he's seen *yup, I know i'm losing this one but hey ho*
On the KC note, they also have Thigpen and there's a school of thought in KC that he did increasingly better towards the end of last year and maybe deserves another season
Anyone who watched the Scott Pioli press conference would have heard Pioli answering questions about Brady and Cassel, the latter got just as much love as the former. If Pioli truly does talk about players the way BB does, Cassel is gold.I've been to chiefs planet and read a few Cassel threads and most of the folks on their only saw his game against the Chiefs (and they are the loudest naysayers) but any level headed person who watched him at different points throughout the season realizes or should realize that this guy is the real deal. He progressively got better as the season went on as opposed to the Derek Anderson's of the world and played an entire season unlike the Schaub's/Eric Mitchell's of the world.
Will he go on to win multiple super bowls? Who knows - but he has proven that he is an above average QB in this league that can win games.
