All in all, I still think this is Cassels last stand and that a change will be made to Stanzi sometime this year.
Most likely during game 6.
As for Poe...
If Pioli and Crennel missed on him, that will be the first time they missed on a first round DL.
Seymour
Wilfork
Warren
Jackson
That pick has a.chance to be extremely good.

Good points. I do not expect to see Cassel benched this season unless the team is out of the playoffs. I'd expect they go with Brady Quinn next.
Poe should be a good player after a few seasons, he doesn't have much technique right now. For this season, I expect them to use him as a pass rusher DE more than anything.
Dwayne Bowe can negotiate with other teams right now, he can initiate a trade without the "2 first round picks" a franchise tag requires, because he's not actually franchised until he signs the franchise contract.
The Chiefs can still sign Dwayne Bowe to a long term contract. This window is open until the 16th of this month. But, this also means they can trade him for any compensation they choose if they get Bowe to sign a contract other than the franchised type.
From ESPN;
"Deadline for long-term deals: Franchise players have until July 16 to sign their franchise players to long-term contracts. The date is usually July 15, but it is the 16th this year because the 15th falls on a Sunday. Past that date, teams can sign their franchise players only to one-year deals. They cannot reach extensions until after their final regular-season games."
