February 27, 200917 yr comment_59080 Patriots beat writer Mike Reiss wonders if Mike Vrabel's trade could be part of a larger deal including Matt Cassel. Now that would be a doozy. Reiss is one of the most well-respected beat writers in the country, and is usually very cautious to publish anything resembling speculation. He rightly points out that we have no idea what the compensation in the Vrabel trade is. Report
February 27, 200917 yr comment_59098 i heard the same thing. Cassel to KC for the #3 pick and the Pats would select OLB Curry...there would be some other swaping of picks as well. Report
February 28, 200917 yr comment_59125 i heard the same thing. Cassel to KC for the #3 pick and the Pats would select OLB Curry...there would be some other swaping of picks as well. With the cap implications of getting Cassell making it so there's virtually no cap related benefit to that trade for KC, that'd be mind-boggling. It'd have to be like the Pats next 3 first round picks to make it worth it. Report

It'd have to be like the Pats next 3 first round picks to make it worth it. I would take him for our 18th overall pick. kid is going to be really good! Report

It'd have to be like the Pats next 3 first round picks to make it worth it. just watch, and remember i told you so Report
February 28, 200917 yr comment_59174 just watch, and remember i told you so I can't imagine the Chiefs being stupid enough to give up pick #3 for him, but yes, you did. Report
February 28, 200917 yr comment_59177 Peter King says it's for KC's 2nd rounder. The Pats could end up have two 2nds and three 3rds. Report
February 28, 200917 yr comment_59180 I can't imagine the Chiefs being stupid enough to give up pick #3 for him, but yes, you did. well, right now no details...just "expert" trying to break the news with speculation. Reports now are for KC 2nd rounder. I think heis worth more, but we will see what it endsup being Report
February 28, 200917 yr comment_59185 Its over...Cassel to KC for their 2nd round pick. I would have given our 2nd rounder for him Report
February 28, 200917 yr comment_59190 Its over...Cassel to KC for their 2nd round pick. I would have given our 2nd rounder for him The Chiefs' second rounder is going to be at the very start of the 2nd right? Almost where a late first sits. It'd have taken more the Bears' 2nd rounder to beat that. 2nd and a 3rd, or maybe even just the Bears's first rounder for it. Report
February 28, 200917 yr comment_59194 Pioli must have had this worked out before he left. Vrabel and Cassell for a 2nd rounder? There would have been a dozen teams willing to give u0p more than that for Cassell alone. Report
February 28, 200917 yr comment_59197 They also probably have some sort of compensation to give for Cassell depending on the year he has, and they'll give him a 6-60 contract with probably 25 guaranteed. Report
March 1, 200917 yr comment_59218 only good news is that he stayed in the afc and did not end up in minny or detroit. golden opp for bears and they missed out. Report
