Does Marrioti actually believe that the Patriots willingly screwed themselves in order to satisfy an old friend? Last time I checked, the Patriots are interested in winning, not in making their friends happy.

Exactly. Goodell doesn't have to investigate the trade because people who give up talent for next to nothing in the NFL quickly find themselves out of work.

Having said that, eazyb81, it is pretty awesome. :D

If that's not the first real indication that Scott Pioli is going to be a fantastic GM, I'm not sure what is.

What a great feeling.

Yup. Exactly my thoughts.

No if he can manage a trade-down to get back that second rounder and more--along with a couple of key FA acquisitions, he's golden.

I love the inherent contradiction in this piece of shit. Belichick wants to win so bad that he will cheat to win, but yet he'll do his buddy a favor by taking a lesser draft pick? How ignorant.

All thanks to Bill Belichick, the new GM's bosom buddy.

I stopped reading here...

So, let me get this straight, The Texans made a bad deal. Does that meant The Chiefs can't make a GOOD deal? It's not like we got Tom Freaking Brady here. We got his understudy, who comes with a few question marks. He may very well BE Matt Schaub for all we know. In which case it's KC who got fleeced.

And Vrabel isi 34 years old and apparently has a shoulder injury that may require surgury. He may have been the throw in...FROM the chiefs.

It's a valid question.

How is it that Shaub was worth so much more than Cassel?

So the Pioli and the Pats
are idiots that don't know the rules
even though they have been tested before

Jay Mariotti should catch some flesh eating bacteria that eats him from the asshole out.

He is unquestionably the biggest tool in the entire print media. Likely the biggest tool in the entire population.

Just spoutin' a bit, I guess. I can remember when sports shows actually showed both sides of the game as opposed to New York, New England, and only those teams sides' of the game.

Mariotti is just mad that Chicago couldn't pull off such a good deal. They are still stuck with mediocre at best qbs. I used to feel his pain :D

I'm going to take a guess and say that the QB situation in Atlanta was anything but certain, whereas New England knows they're getting back an elite QB. Atlanta had a lot more leverage because they had major incentive to keep Schaub on the roster. I think NE tried to play it like they really needed Cassel because Brady was maybe not 100%, but I don't think any teams bought it--I imagine most teams knew that Cassel would hit the open market if NE couldn't work out a trade.
