Minnesota would never make the move. First, Chili's ego as a qb molder won't allow for him to admit he failed with TJack.
I'm sorry, but this article scares me, based on the following sentence: "The general consensus is that Cassel wants about $75 million over five years, which includes $35 million in bonuses."
If this is indeed true, then Cassel and his agent are pricing themselves out of the market. This is ridiculous - a 5 year contract at $15M/year with #35 million in bonuses? No one in his right mind would sign any QB not named Brady or Manning (Peyton, not Eli) to anything like that. I know Pittsburgh signed Roethlisberger to an 8 year $102M extension, but Big Ben had already won a SB by that time. The signing bonus was $25M, and $36M of the contract was guaranteed.
I hope this is not true. Otherwise, say hello to $29M of QBs for 2009.
Teams that, not who. C'mon Fox, it's the friggin' headline. :stars2:
Anyway, he says:
"Here are the obvious teams in definite need of a quarterback: Detroit, Kansas City, Tampa Bay, San Francisco and the New York Jets."
Then he proceeds to rule out KC and narrow it down to...Detroit, San Francisco and Minnesota. Anybody else confused?
