Sorry dude don't have a link but its true just being discussed on NFL channel.

Me too.

If it was for our first, I'd still feel better with the move than taking a chance on Stafford or Sanchez. Hope we didn't give up the first rounder though.

Any scenario that has us taking another ****ing LT when we already have a kid with pro bowl caliber talent there is a ****ing horrible idea.

Hm, I guess it shows what Pioli and Haley think about Thigpen and the QB class in the draft this year.

I would agree with you EXCEPT for one possibility.

If we trade Waters AND then draft Monroe. Monroe and Albert definitely have chemistry playing next to each other... so I have no problem with that... IF we lose Waters for whatever reason.

Not promoting the idea... just saying that it is the one acceptable situation where moving Albert inside is fine by me.

I will believe Cassel is the man once he knocks up a super model. Until then, meh.

exactly. In my book, he's on the same page as Sanchez & Stafford. An Unknown. We dont know what he'll do away from NE, but he has the ability. Pioloi knows more about him than any of us do. I trust him.

Count me in as a Cassel supporter. He's our QB now. Live with it.

We need to address our OL. We have needed to address our OL since the Vermeil era.

We drafted an OT last season; we still need an OT. The OT we drafted last season was very good; we have the option to draft the guy this year who started at LT ahead of the guy we drafted last season.

Drafting Monroe would be a smart pick which resulted in our OT position being shored-up for a decade (or more).

its funny. i watch NFL network and such, i see former players, people with connections in the league, and they say that people inside the Pats organization say Cassel will be a top 10 QB in the league this coming year. but then i come to the internet and computer programmers or high school students tell me he sucks, and we could have anointed our infants with matt stafford's sweat. i am so confused.

At 3 now, I'm drafting Aaron Curry period or trading down.

I do not want Brendan Albert moved from LT.

And once again, you are wrong.

Hamas was just bitching about the Chiefs potentially drafting Monroe...

If they drafted him, they are obviously drafting him to play LT...

Therefore, I was wondering what the Chiefs would do with Albert in this scenario.

I love the sense of entitlement you drafturbators think you deserve on this website.

Seems to me it already is shored up for a decade.

:clap::clap::clap::clap::clap:

I'm am completely happy, I was kind of pissed about the snow, and then this lands on my plate - so long as we didn't give up too much, I LOVE IT! In fact, as a tribute to this move, I'm buying the jersey off my next paycheck.

However, with Raji I must agree. This guy is a wobbling weetodd, he's big and somewhat athletic and that's it - he's out of shape big, his stock will plummet....

Taking Cassel means, with almost certainty, that I expect the Lions to take Stafford (which I thought anyway really). I now wouldn't be surprised in the slightest if our decision is to try and land Aaron Curry - or trade down.

:clap::clap::clap::clap::clap:

Anyone that wants to move Albert to guard is a moron supremo

My gut feeling tells me the chiefs are going to draft a linebacker. I feel it. I think it's gonna happen. I think you're going to see a lots of moves at linebacker this off-season. Vrabel is the start. I think thats why he was brought in here to teach the young LB's.

is it time to buy a game ticket?

i agree. if you have a solution at LT then you don't 'fix' it.

Are you ****ing reeruned?

Why would you spend 50 million on a goddamned left tackle and 20 million on a left guard, when the ****ing left guard can play left tackle at a pro bowl level?

Jesus, why not just draft Alex Mack at 3 so we can have our COTF?

thats what I was thinking..but we have thigpen so cassel and thigpen are gonna battle for the starting job..thigpen wont give up

You know what ****head, you don't need to get paid from the NFL to actually be able to break down tape, understand schemes and figure out who can be good and bad.

I hate mother ****ers who post this shit.

If this is the case, there would never be any need for political discussion or sports discussion.

If the analysts on NFL Network are always so spot on, why in god's name aren't all of them able to predict the playoff teams before the season starts?

You know why Virginia had Monroe play left tackle and not Albert? Its bc he couldnt play any other position.

Needless to say, our Saturday just became exciting.

LMAO

This.

You draft Curry now, especially with bringing Vrabel in via trade.

Until the draft, you try like hell to address the OL via Free Agency.....

thats just stupid..we still need our fg kicker of the future, we gotta get him at 3

They are both knowledgeable football fans...to say the least. They have great football opinions...but belittling everyone with an opinion and jamming theirs down everyone's throat without the ability of being objective in any way is irritating.

Those two honestly think they could run a football team better than anyone...and I think they really believe that, too.

All you doom and gloomers need to get a freakin' grip. Just sayin'. This is way better than waiting to see if the Chiefs sign the next Kendrell Bell, McInsack or Johnnie Morton.

I am feeling that too. I don't have a problem with it either.

initially I have no problem with the deal but I'll reserve final judgment until we know the whole deal.
I don't have a problem with Cassel.

I think you mean
Matt Casshole

Dude shutup. Just cause you're a Mcdonalds manager and you have time to watch NFL Network doesn't mean you know what the **** you're talking about. And if you think Sanchez is a better QB then Cassell you're a booger eating tard.

Like his head coach in college? Damn that guy must be a frackin reerun.

Pretty sure that all of us know way more about football than anyone who actually does it for a living.

schefter says now that another team has been calling new england, KC has a deal in place and it probably still will go through but mystery team is still trying to get him

Reporting maybe a 3 team deal now.

Shit. Another team may be involved.

according to NFL network...another team is trying to get Cassel...they are speculating about maybe 3rd team?

seems like not official yet

now they say there could be a third team involved wanting Cassel!

Um, actually Raji has 4 years of experience. The issue wasn't whether Sanchez had the production, but enough starts. And not drafting a defensive tackle because of his intelligence is really ****ing stupid. It's one of the positions where physical ability is far ahead of intelligence--tackles and QBs and safeties and LBs are positions where you need to focus more on intelligence.

You seem to be using this issue as a fatal flaw. It raises a flag, but I think you're raising way too big of a stink about this. Again, BC is a much, much tougher school than most schools represented in the first round (US News and World Report confirms this). I promise you that most of the players who pass at Miami would flunk out at BC. Sedrick Ellis scored a 15 and Vince Wilfork scored a 10 on the Wonderlic for crying out loud.

holy **** this is crazy

We will see how it goes, I'm excited about it!!! I'm willing to give him a shot, I'm just glad it's not for a 1st rounder!

i am very sorry you didn't like my post.

the point stands, that when people in football believe in him and random people on the internet ballyhoo about how he's horrible i will defer to the professionals for now

Just came over BFl network deal is not done yet. Some other team in mix.

Schefter is backing off its now "he's gettinig traded...looks like KC"

the bucs want cassel too....

I want you to find a post where I said I wanted the Chiefs to draft Eugene Monroe...

You won't.

You just speculated that very thing happening in this ****ing thread...and then someone said something about Albert to RT and I said I figured he would be a better fit at LG...

Calm the **** down. I'd rather have Curry, EVERY DAY OF THE WEEK, as opposed to Monroe.

So STFU.

So THE DEAL IS NOT DONE

are you insulting him for only being able to play the 2nd toughest position in football?

This could end up being Schefter's DEAL IS DONE moment.

Interesting move.

Now we get to see the real (without Moss) Cassel. But even if he goes bust, a second round pick is acceptable risk.

Cassell for our 2nd is the perferct (realistic) solution to our QB issues. I suspect he's as good as Trent Green and we get him for less and keep him for many more years. And we aren't forced to use our #3 pick on a risky QB pool.

There's a reason teams don't draft guards and right tackles and centers and rarely LBs in the top 5--it's because teams don't believe it's overly important.

That has nothing to do with us proving we know better than GMs. That's about analyzing what most GMs in the NFL do on a yearly basis.

I like the move. I would have liked Stafford or Sanchez juat as much if not more, but Cassel was definately one of the three options I was hoping we could get for our QBOTF.

I wouldn't mind it a bit now if we brought in TJ Houshmanzada for the other wideout to pair with Bowe.

I'm not giving one more thing to the Patriots in this deal. If it was agreed to, it was agreed to. Let him go to Tampa if they want to offer their first rounder.

haha! Another team thought New England was giving too much of a discount to KC and stepped in and offered more...this could nix both Vrabel and Cassel and Pioli would be back down to strike #1 in the book of Hamas!

No but Al Groth said that was why Albert wasnt the left tackle and that he was a better athlete than Monroe.

There's a lot of us "random" people who study the NFL just as much as these "analysts".

i agree with that. if we had a deal and they pull it back, then we pull it back

Seattle: 3
St. Louis: 3
SF: 5
SD: 4
Pitt: 5
Oak: 3
Denver: 6
Miami week 3: 4
Jets week 2: 3
Jets week 11: 4

10 games with 3 or more sacks.

Kill yourself.

if you read what i posted, it was one of these talking heads - saying that he had talked with people in the Pats organization. it was not his word, he was passing along what they say, that they feel Cassel is a top 10 QB in the league.

apparently, 3rd team is a "surprise team" whatever the hell that means

You posted "more" than 3, dipshit.

This is insane. I want more info.

I just can't get excited by this. I guess I'll wait till I see what this one cost us. Just for me, it isn't till after the first year playing that people have some real tape on a guy and while I love TG and like Bowe, neither of them is Moss and Welker.

As usual, he is our QB, so I'll root for the guy to succeed.

If Cassel's a product of the system then so is Brady. AAAND if we're getting a good systemn QB but are putting him into a similar system (and Pioli seems intent on turning us into the Pats) then he should succeed nicely. CRABTREE AT 3!!!:D

Read. Please. I like you, even if we never agree.

One year of production.

Mike Reiss of the Boston Herald says that the paperwork has been filed with the league.

One year of production opposed to Sanchez who's never played in the NFL. Hmm

what the **** are you talking about?

Everyone knows Cassel took a shit ton of sacks last year...he took like 40+...opposed to Brady who took like 12-15 the year before...

However, I think teams may have studied the Giants gameplan against the Pats and that offense and how to attack the QB which may have worked against Cassel...I mean, Brady was taking hits from the Chiefs in the 1st quarter and the Chiefs ended up amassing 10 sacks and not many more pressures on the season...in 2007, Tom Brady had more time than Trent Green during the Chiefs offensive heyday during the Vermeil era...

So we'll see...

3-way

my god i agree with hootie. all the draftubators need to take a moment, maybe cry into their box of tampons or something, and realize that pioli doesn't care what any of us think. bottom line, we got a possible franchise qb, and still have our first round pick.

Peter King says it's done. Cassel and Vrabel for our 2nd rounder.

http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/200...l/?eref=sircrc

We're talking about BJ Raji, dumbass.

So its not even a done deal and everybodys acting like it is. Great. We've been all masturbating the last hour.

Tell me when there is actual news.
Posted via Mobile Device

Thigpen to the Bucs!

Peter King says it's a 2nd round pick for both players.

I'm talking about Hamas being wrong, yet again. He made a false claim, as he does so often, and I called him on it.

Talking about Rajji not Sanchez.

girls girls girls... can we stop the slap fight?


you guys are going to upset Brian Waters.

if it is a second round pick for both players, Pioli made a great trade
