The franchise had been down that route many, many times to no avail. My position back then was "If Cassel turns out to be Trent Green, then I'd still rather have taken a QB prospect. I'd rather have a QB prospect bust than get another Trent Green, because at least the franchise took the shot that it's been afraid of for so long."

Cassel has looked better than Green lately in a lot of ways, so there's that going for him.
Sanchez was not considered a "universally respected" 1st round prospect Some thought so...many, many others did not. Thank god the Chiefs were smart enough not to go that route.

You would take Cassel over Sanchez...right?
