I hope Cassel is much more than what Green was, and it speaks to how much the QB position has been undervalued that we often hold up a nice, system guy as a model for what we hope or would be happy to have.

Sorry, but I want and expect more.

Cassell's going on 27 years old.

He's got a full year of experience in the NFL as a starting QB. And in that year, he played exceptionally well.

He's a steal, plain and simple. I wanted to draft a QB too, but really this works out better...

We got our QB, and kept the #3 pick.
