So, HOPEFULLY we claimed him to get the comp pick and that we will move Cassel for a pick before next year starts and use those picks (and more) to trade up for a real quarterback.

It's too bad I know better.

Exactly. Because it's easier to move down from the #14 pick and get a couple of 6th's in return. Because the 6th round is where you get franchise QBs.

you just keep hoping to god that we **** up the qb position again this time and dont go out and draft a real one. I know thats why you're trolling with this crap, you are genuinely scared.

You guys really need to get over this.

We were never going to draft a franchise quarterback anyway.

Next year we're going to roll out Cassel, Orton and a new head coach and if we're lucky, they'll compete for the starting job.

End result: Cassel won't be our starter anymore.

If you were hoping for more than that, you're a fool.

To those talking about the compensatory pick, I'm fairly sure it's like a 5th, probably a 6th rounder. I'm damn near positive we're not getting a 3rd or anything like it for him....

Not now. This move makes that patently obvious. Orton plays out the string, and Cassel is back for next year.

Scott Pioli saw a chance to evaluate young talent on this team in the waning weeks of a lost season after losing an ineffective and overpaid Matt Cassel and his decision was...to bring in Matt Cassel.

Scott Pioli is a ****ing True Fan.

No one would give up a 3rd for Orton.

THIS.

[mcaj22]

if they gives this clown a contract that extends longer than these 6 games then they have to be wanting to trade Cassel the minute the offseason begins
