NFL Network's Adam Schefter reports that Matt Cassel is expected to be traded to the Chiefs, but there may a third "mystery team" in play.

Schefter has softened his wording, saying the deal has been "agreed to" and "expected." Paperwork has been drawn up; Cassel will be traded. efter says there is now some question whether Kansas City could be his final destination. The "mystery team" is supposedly a surprise, which would seemingly rule out Tampa.t team could either swoop in or get involved in a three-way deal. Cassel is also working out a possible contract, which is probably the biggest factor in holding up this news. It's possible the Patriots agreed to trade compensation, but Cassel's contract demands are holding the deal up. If Cassel is dealt, it's safe to say the Tyler Thigpen era is over before it started.

I got to watch a bunch of KC games last year and this guy is insane accurate and he did it with out a lot of talent surround him. Imagine him throwing bombs to STEVE SMITH and handing off to Double Trouble all day long. I think we'd average 30 ppg with him.

KC Still has their #3 overall pick and they need a pass rusher to replace Jared Allen. YOU KNOW WHAT I'M SAYING. We might need to toss in a 3rd rounder to make it fair and square but Thigpen + #3 overall for Peppers and a 3rd or 4th would be straight cash homey. Think about it. :patriot:

I'll take the #3 for Peppers and they can keep Thigpen. The three QBs on our roster now are all better than Thigpen.

I must have missed the memo for opposite day where we all say things that are the exact opposite of what is true. Will an admin please change the thread title to "Thigpen NOT coming to Carolina" then?

:dita:

      Some homers' opinions of the OTs that we may realistically be able to get at 19

      I look at it like get on top of the situation. Stay ahead of it. If it costs you a year of not drafting a starter at number three WR in the first so be it. We need new blood there in 2027 if not 2026, and need to get some OL on rookie deals.   At the same time the big picture is considered, we have a QB that has yet to earn an extension and you can go glass half full if you want but he had about half the good games that he needed to have. Fewer, IMO, but the point is he is not a lock to earn an extension.    Which would really put next year’s number one in play for QB and take OT off the table. So I think it needs to be on the table this year.

      https://www.pff.com/news/nfl-offensive-line-success-why-building-through-the-nfl-draft-is-the-key   Conclusions drawn This article took a deep dive into evaluating recent offensive line trends regarding the draft and free agency while incorporating team success into the equation. Here are the biggest takeaways:   The best offensive lines in football (PHI, DET, TB) were built through the draft in the early rounds Other teams (most notably LAC) are following the same approach in team building Offensive line is something a team should target in the early rounds (1-3), as the success rate significantly declines in the later rounds both in the short and long-term Offensive tackles have a higher success rate through the draft than interior offensive linemen, regardless of round Acquiring free agent offensive line does have its benefits, particularly for elite units filling one hole. Interior offensive is typically the way to go Top-end offensive line talent is far less likely to be available via trade or free agency compared to other positions year to year, only emphasizing the importance of the draft   My words: we were forced to make some big signings on interior after years of poor OL drafting and neglect. It worked but isnt sustainable. We need to get right. Drafting tackles high is a successful formula. We need to start now to have any hope going forward.
