I think Cassel's capable of being a good QB. Just not a great one. I think to say he's a backup at best is an exaggeration. Weis will build an offense around his weaknesses and the offense will do just fine. Keep in mind that Brady threw a pretty lousy deep ball his rookie year, so Weis knows how to run an offense that relies exclusively on underneath routes.
That being said, I think the problem is that Weis' offense is going to mask Cassel's flaws. Even the offense will do just fine, we'll probably still need a new QB.
