Everybody knows that the acquisition of Cassel was a TRADE, but not everyone is processing it as such.

What has changed for the Chiefs in the 1st round of the 2009 Draft?

Nothing.

Yep, there's that pesky little 3rd overall still sitting firmly in our hands. Had that trade, minus Vrabel, been for 3rd overall? There's nothing to discuss, and "the deal is done"!

That's not the case.

Now prior to this trade, it had been discussed ad-nauseum how very difficult it would be to get a proper balance going on a trade-down. It was also surmised that finding a team willing to do this would be even harder.

Long story short; I believe that Matt Cassel is now the "Drew Bledsoe" on the roster of the Kansas City Chiefs.

As to what happens on the 25th of April, I'll let you draw your own conclusions.
