Theory: Cassel deal is not finished, just in phase one

Re: Theory: Cassel deal is not finished, just in phase one.

Yeah lol well until then you need to start admitting you were wrong about Cassel's value don't ya think?

Nah, it's easier to indulge in wild wishfull self-fulfilling fantasy than to face the Cold Hard Football Facts that you're wrong.

I wasn't wrong about what he COULD get. I was wrong about what he DID get.

Still, #34 is an upgrade over a spare QB sucking up the salary cap.

And why would I ever align myself Kerry "smells like ******" Byrne?

I don't think anyone got screwed, I think we haven't seen it all yet.

What do you think?

I'm not a shrink, but this feels like sort of the classic "Bargaining" stage of coming to grips with something that you don't want to believe is true or that you feel is really bad. Let it go. Accept that we got the best deal we could get. Move on.

Good one. BB's feet were on the bottom all along.

He is not a need right now..

....................... :agree:

Now, now. "Anger" is the step BEFORE bargaining, so you're going backwards. Come on, you can do it. Denial...Anger...Bargaining...Depression...Acceptance. Let's get on track here! I know you can do it. We're all pullin' for ya! :singing:

 

[PATSYLICIOUS]

I don't think anything further is set in stone but perhaps there are some future considerations. I'm sure this isn't the last of the deals we see between each other. As it stands now, it is still a great deal for both sides despite all that is being reported.

Yea, you can put a fork in that one. Ain't happnin'.

It is a pipe dream, but humor me, why not?

 

[ScottieC]

Ok, I'll try. And anything is possible.

But I spoke to Reiss yesterday via E-Mail and he said it was done. Of course that's just his opinion as well.

Why would the Chiefs give away the player who'll be Cassel's safety blanket?

None of us should believe anything different, now. However, hope ussually springs eternal. When I first heard this deal,my initial thought was that's stange, something else is in the works. Then you think about cassel's 14mil tag number, and the fact that they would try to sign him for less. Well then the secondrounder maes sense, with the Vrabel throw in. It's leverage. "gee Matt we were only able to get a second rounder for you, not only that they had to throw in Vrabel".
Then once he's signed up, draftday rolls around. BB picks up the phone on day 2. Wink, wink, nudge,nudge, out rolls Tony G.

Tony G. want's out, and Bowe is his safety blanket.

Man, that would make BB look like the John Gruden of the TE market.

 

[alvinnf]

You guy's are all right, and frankly I'm happy with 34th overall. It's just been a long winter. Heavy snow and no playoffs, the only thing other than the draft to look forward to is Mud Season.
