I notice this didn't get bumped last year, when Cassel was offensive player of the month, or after last season when the Chiefs won the division and Cassel went to the Pro Bowl.
I am still a fan of the trade. I am still in favor of NOT drafting Sanchez.
Now, do I want an upgrade over Cassel? Yes, please. Do I blame him for the Chiefs being 4-6? No.
Cassel is what I thought he was. A hard worker that will do what the coaches ask and that can be successful when surrounded with talent.
A second round pick for Cassel is still much better than what teams normally give up for a QB. Look at the Palmer trade. Look at the Kolb trade. Look at the AJ Feeley trade. I know there are others.
Heck, look at the Trent Green trade.
The Texans gave up far more for Schaub, who has not even won a division.
The price was on par with what the Chiefs got. A servicable starting QB.
