Wow! Big move. Patriots get Brady back and now they'll have an extra 1st round pick each of the next two years. Sheesh.

Is this confirmed? I haven't seen details on the compensation yet. I would think that is a little steep.

If they get two first rounders for a guy who never started a game in college that is probably the best offseason move of all time (up there with Moss for a 4th rounder and the Herschel Walker debacle).

I thought those were the terms of Cassel's franchise tag. I could be wrong.

EDIT: Nevermind, it was trade. They would only get those two 1st rounders if they signed him while the Pats still held his rights under the franchise tag. I guess I'm a little slow on the uptake today.

Re: NFL Network: Matt Cassel Traded to Chiefs.

It's almost like other teams WANT the Patriots to continue their dominance. Nice work a-holes.

I think you have to give credit to the Patriot's leadership. Their culture does not allow other people's problems to bring them down. In fact they thrive.

Anyone want to bet that Fred Taylor doesn't have a huge year? (My early bet for comeback POY).

I can't stand the Patriots, but their smart, you have to give them that. Cocky Bastards!

A mystery 3rd team. My guess is the 49ers.

The Chiefs only give up a 2nd rounder. Nice work!

I think that drafting at 13 gives us a better chance for a "can't miss" talent but if they threw in their #1 and their first second rounder you probably have to take it.

I would not give up 13 if Andre Smith was there.
