We're all in the same boat, my friend: hoping that Cassel turns into something because he's probably going to be here for a while. Whether we like it or not. Which is why I haven't dogged the guy since the trade was made, and why I haven't dogged the guy all year. It's not because I liked it. It's because I didn't want to give myself an ulcer.
Let's put it this way: he may not be the best option, but right now he's the only option, for good or ill. I hope to christ below he exceeds all our expectations.

This is my only argument. I don't think Cassel has had the greatest pieces around him, but right now he's going to be the only option because he's Pioli's guy. So we're going to sink or swim with him. I only hope that somehow he finds a way to become more accurate on his deep throws and that his pocket awareness improves. Generally those aren't things a QB gets better at so we're pretty much SOL.
Either way, point is, we're still not drafting a QB with our first pick so talking about it in realistic fashion is stupid. We're not doing it. End of story.
