Why wouldn't it? Unless you think that signing a large contract grants a 1 year free pass.
Did you think that since Cassel signed a long expensive contract, they had no expectations for him for the first year of that contract?
There isn't a lot of patience in the pros these days. Contracts rarely make it into the later years. If Cassel doesn't show improvement over the first year, that contract is gonna be flushed down the toilet. I'd argue that he's under more pressure to perform than just about anybody else on the team.
