I don't know about that. It's not like Cassel is 31. He's 27, and he's entering his prime years of 27-31ish. It's not like he's ancient. That contract will take him through 33, and that's if he sees the entire thing, which may or may not even happen.
The other guys are rookies who've never played a down. I think the age thing is REALLY overplayed. It's not like we just traded for 30 some year old Trent Green.
