First off, what "history" is this that says that Cassel won't win a Super Bowl or that this "history" proves that trading for a backup was a wrong move? Especially considering that we got a perennial Pro Bowl linebacker along with our starting QB. I'm a little confused as to how you think that this was a wrong move, especially basing it on a "historical" perspective.
Actually, watching our second round pick this year (Cassel and Vrabel), I don't see how the trade was anything but a very good to excellent move at the least. It gave the team the opportunity to be more competitive on both sides of the ball sooner rather than later. As well, while not the most flashy of picks, it looks like the Jackson pick was solid, considering the near night and day difference in the run defense from last season to this one. At the end of last season, it might have been a toss up between which was worse - the O line or the D line.
