Matt Cassel to Bucs...er, Chiefs

[VOLNBAMA]

Buc's official confirms deal is for Buc's 2009 1st round selection (19th overall) and 2010 conditional 2nd rounder.

Chucky's gonna love this.

That Gruden is wheeling and dealing like a mad man this off-season.

I know its cliche...but....source?

Cant find anything on it.

 

[VOLNBAMA]

now it's turned into an unconfirmed rumor. It was on NFL.com board.

That would be the dumbest thing they could do. Cassel was a product of the New England system. Not to mention that giving up 2 first round picks makes no sense at all. I would like to see Tampa Bay give Josh Johnson a shot. The kid was amazing at San Diego U.

I would love this! The Cassel/Peppers trade rumors were making my sick.

 

[TrueOrange]

Oh, stupid stupid stupid. When are teams going to realize that giving the pats more first round picks is not a good thing...odds are it just makes it so that if you do make it to the super bowl, they're just already there to beat you up....

oh ok, just saw it's a rumor. good

ESPN reported this as well.

KFFL is also reporting now that the deal might not be so done as we thought, a third team has come into the picture trying to trade for Cassel.

SI is reporting that the trade is for KC's 2nd round pick in 09 - the 34th pick

i thought Tyler Thigpen played well enough at the end of the year to warrant a shot at the job this year.

but i certainly understand Pioli wanting one of his guys under center rather than an unknown in Thigpen.

Tough blow for Gruden and the Bucs. They've now whiffed on Haynesworth and Cassel.

Gruden better get it together or the Glazers might provide some seat heat.
