One or possibly two of the Patriots' "insiders" (Pioli, McDaniel) officially work for other teams. Assuming they have the goods on TFB's status, will that injury status become more public? I don't expect Pioli to come out and say: "Hey, everyone. Brady's hurt really bad and he'll be out in 2009." It's not in his best interest to share that info. But his actions as KC's GM and interest in Cassel might indicate how the Patriots perceive Cassel's role in 2009. Franchise to play, or Franchise to trade?
Also, hearing Pioli talk about the "Patriots Way" would lead me to believe he'll need a few Patriots character players (FA's?) around as "role models". Most likely high character/hard workers. A guy like Heath Evans comes to mind. Maybe Hochstein?
Thoughts?
