Vrabel traded to KC, compensation still unknown

[KDPPatsfan85]

I suspect that this is part of a package deal that includes Cassel as well. Terms are undisclosed right now because they are still working with Cassel's agent to nail down his end of the transaction.

Yea i think Vrabel is a decoy for the package trade of Cassel and Vrabel for hopefully their first rounder and a 2nd rounder.

I found this at the Boston Herald

Patriots trade defensive leader Mike Vrabel to Chiefs - BostonHerald.com

Theres a part at the end saying that Mike Vrabel will need shoulder surgery!!

That undisclosed draft pick their #3? A much bigger deal could be in the works. The main part being Cassel and Vrabel along with a comination of draft picks form both parties.

Didn't even see the guy who posted the same thing as me....we're on the same page!

You said it yourself, he's better as an OLB. I want Thomas on the outside, he's much more effective.

It's also easier to find someone who brings what he brings at OLB than what he brings at OLB. I'm just looking at A) what Adalius can bring at ILB + an attainable OLB vs. B) what Adalius can bring at OLB vs. an attainable ILB. If A>B, then I want to see Adalius at ILB. Not that complicated.

Hahaha that would be awesome, and chiefs fans would flip out. They don't think that Cassel is worth swapping first rounders for.

Nope. It's much easier to find a MLB these days.

That can play in Belichick's system, cover well, take on guards, and be a credible pass-rushing threat from the inside? Going to have to respectfully disagree there.

Wait 'til Borges gets his meat-hooks into this one...
