The Patriots have decided to ensure that quarterback Matt Cassel won't be an unrestricted free agent, as scheduled in March.

Sources told ESPN senior NFL analyst Chris Mortensen that the Patriots will use a franchise tag on Cassel that will give the team two options: Trade him if all goes well with Tom Brady's rehabilitation from a knee injury or keep him because all is not well with Brady.

:eek: That would flat out suck ass! :mad:

I'm not so certain of that.

Tampa is a West Coast system. Would he fit in that system? Maybe, but it's not a lock.

Lord knows Gruden loves to collect QBs. I think Tampa has bigger needs. Whether Gruden agrees, who can say?

My gut says this is highly unlikely, buuuut ya never know.

What team has significant cap room, draft picks available and needs a young QB with a decent resume?

Tampa would certainly be a fit, but I think the better fit might be in Detroit. Detroit certainly has a pick or two to toss at the Patriots in order to land Cassel and they desperately need a young QB to build the team around.
