I am curious to where people think Cassel will land next year. My gut tells me the Pats are going to tag and trade since it makes sense as long as they can do it without cutting players to be under the cap.
My guess is San Francisco is the most logical landing destination. Why.
1. The Pats are going to do everything to keep Cassel out of NYJ and MIA.
2. The teams with high first round draft picks are going to go after the bumper crop of college QB's coming out like Sam Bradford. SF will likely pick after these guys are gone leaving them in the cold. The perceived value is Cassel can play ASAP and fill a glaring hole.
In addition, the Pats would welcome a pick outside the top 10 to avoid big signing bonuses like they did with Mayo last year.
3. SF wants to win now with Singletary with the coach and the big FA's they signed in recent years. They have played well down the stretch despite having poor QB play.
4. Cassel is a west coast guy and wants to be closer to home.
