MOD NOTE: This report has been posted verbatim on a number of different NFL message boards. It has proven to be false and the station mentioned in Tampa is reporting no such agreement. A number of posters here at PatsFans have tried to post it (see below) and their threads have been deleted.

...

BREAKING NEWS : Tampa Bay TV Station FOX 13 is reporting BUCS are finalizing contract extention talks with MATT CASSEL . BUCS and PATS have agreed on DEAL pending CASSEL CONTRACT SIGNING ( 4 years -29.5 million ). Buc 's official confirms deal is for Buc's 2009 1st round selection and 2010 conditional 2nd rounder.

Blast it. Didn't know that. Thought this was just something that hadn't been announced outside the area yet.

Mods feel free to remove with my apologies.

re: FALSE rumor: Cassel to Bucs

My first thought is that's a low number for a contract. He's already got more than half of that guaranteed in the form of his franchise tender for next year ($14.65M). Is the $29M the guaranteed amount?
 
CASSEL to BUCS ?? Unconfirmed

Chiefs fans are reporting this

BREAKING NEWS : Tampa Bay TV Station FOX 13 is reporting BUCS are finalizing contract extention talks with MATT CASSEL . BUCS and PATS have agreed on DEAL pending CASSEL CONTRACT SIGNING ( 4 years -29.5 million plus performance incentives ) . Buc 's official confirms deal is for Buc's 2009 1st round selection ( 19th overall ) and 2010 conditional 2nd rounder.

I would take this.
 
Re: CASSEL to BUCS ?? Unconfirmed

Why would Cassel accept 4/29? That's way less than has been pegged. Most people think he'll earn at least 10-11M per year on his new deal. I smell BS on this rumor.
 
Re: CASSEL to BUCS ?? Unconfirmed

Is that 29.5 guarenteed?
 
Re: CASSEL to BUCS ?? Unconfirmed

It's fake. My post about it like 4hrs ago got removed. That guy is spamming all the Shefter threads...
 
Re: CASSEL to BUCS ?? Unconfirmed

Oh man please let this go down that would be a great come up for the pats.
 
Re: CASSEL to BUCS ?? Unconfirmed

4-29??'


4-29??

Oh men, we should keep Cassel for that money. Makes no sense. And tampa gets Winslow yet. impossible I guess
 
Re: CASSEL to BUCS ?? Unconfirmed

Bu-Bye, Bu-Bye. now what?

This rumor has been completely discredited - apparently being spread by someone who has been making stuff up all day.
 
Cassel to Bucs? (repeated unconfirmed rumor)

Fox news reporting.
 
re: Cassel to Bucs? (repeated unconfirmed rumor)

Fox news reporting.

Thought we already established that it wasn't true... was this taken from a poster in an nfl.com blog ?
 
re: Cassel to Bucs? (repeated unconfirmed rumor)

For the #19?
 
Re: Cassel to Bucs? (repeated unconfirmed rumor)

If Fox does report it, it'll probably show up here: NFL News

As long as it's not posted there, you can pretty safely assume that Fox 13 in Tampa isn't reporting anything on the matter.
 
Re: FALSE rumor: Cassel to Bucs

I got it in a google alert on my phone. Must just be the rumour making the rounds virally. The real deal will be bigger, methinks.

Sorry to add to the chaos.
 
Re: FALSE rumor: Cassel to Bucs

If a FALSE rumor is proven FALSE, does that make it true?
