He will be traded, Brady will be back and the Pats will secure a few more draft picks and/or FAs to fill their needs. Since they can't run maybe we trade LJ for Cassel Even-Steven?

Lead a team that won 18 games the year before to 11 wins? And that includes having one of the weakest schedules in the league... Either way it doesn't matter, they will want too much... I am not clear on the rules on the Tag, but it would be nice to see the rest of the league stiff the Pats on it (if they are unable to revoke it) and make them take up 30 mil of cap for two players at the same position...

And our offense is well set up, especially if we add Crabtree or Smith and free agents (O-line). He proved quite a bit to me.

Moss, Wes Welker and a good O Line... Yes, I support a FA QB, but Cassel has proven nothing until he can do it without R. Moss, Wes Welker and a good O Line…

Again, Bradford and Stafford have a lot to prove. At least I think they do. It’s a little harder to be a byproduct of that system given that they can’t run the ball at all.

Takes over for an injured HOF qb, plays great for the rest of the season, cashes in and never plays like that again. He does not have a strong arm, holds on to the ball too long, and was blessed to have Moss and Welker rack up a lot of YAC. I'd pass on him and go for Bradford or Stafford in the first round.

Cassel is much more proven than any QB we could draft, even in the first round. Draft picks, especially outside of the first round, are overvalued.

I'd probably give up our second for Cassel if it were up to me. I could see a trade happening. I’d probably give up our second for Cassel if it were up to me.
