You realize you're trying to equate moves made over 10 years with one offseason, right? Not to mention comparing a 33 year old who'd been drafted at 2 ten years prior with a rookie #1, a 23-year old who'd been drafted at 36 two years prior with a 29-year old trade acquisition, and a 29-year old former #1 pick with years of starts with a 26-year old undrafted player who's attempted 9 passes in his career. I think I might call that reaching a bit.

1 problem. Reid didn't grab McNabb, Kolb, and Vick all in 1 offseason.

In one case, the top of the draft QB is an over-the-hill shell of his former self and in the other, he's an unproven future-rookie. (McNabb vs GenoS)
In one case, the free agent signing is a seasoned vet with such tantalizing physical attributes he was selected 1.1 when he came out of college and in the other, he's a negligible-experience, career backup whose physical attributes kept him from getting drafted at all. (Vick vs Daniel) In one case, the guy acquired with a 2nd round pick is a green, rookie and in the other he's a multi-year starter. (Kolb vs AlexS) Edit: I see keg has already covered this.

To act as if teams didnt think Cassel had upside in 2009, is beyond silly. |

FWIW, I just went back nine pages on Google and the only people that praised this trade were, you guessed it, Boston and New England media. |
