It seems that Scott Pioli is taking a page out of his days in New England as once he was named General Manager of the Kansas City Chiefs he has not stood still very long. After firing Herm Edwards he has now traded for Matt Cassel and Mike Vrabel to help out a franchise that has struggled lately especially in the quarterback spot. This move will give the Chiefs pieces that they can build around. The Chiefs gave up their 34th pick in the first round to get them which in reality wasn't really that bad.
For Matt Cassel it gives him a chance to prove he can play in the NFL long term which is something that he wants to do anyway. For the New England Patriots they have to hope that Tom Brady will be ready to start the season. If not they could have really put themselves in a real bind. I guess we will have to see how this works out for both sides.
