The Chiefs offensive production went south when Cassel was lost for the season in Week 10 due to a broken hand but Kansas City was hardly an offensive powerhouse with Cassel in the lineup. Even with the team’s most dynamic offensive player Jamaal Charles lost for the season in Week 2, former head coach Todd Haley still leaned heavily on the run game with Cassel failing to top 200 passing yards in five of his nine starts and also failing to top 300 passing yards once. With Haley gone and new offensive coordinator Brian Daboll running the show, the team’s production in the passing game isn’t likely to see a huge increase. Daboll’s preference is to run the ball heavily and utilize plenty of short passes. While that may play to Cassel’s strengths (although that is half-hearted praise given his completion percentage of 57.2% as a Chief), it isn’t going to turn him into a useful option as your fantasy quarterback. Cassel rates as a lower tier QB2 in 12-team leagues.

Cassel to compete with Ponder in MIN -- Thu Mar 14 4:00 pm --
 Vikings sign veteran for QB competition | Matt Cassel wasn't out of work long after being released by the Kansas City Chiefs on Thursday as the quarterback has agreed to a contract with the Minnesota Vikings, a source confirmed to ESPN NFL Insider Adam Schefter. Cassel will compete for the starting job with incumbent starter Christian Ponder, the source said. (ESPN)
FF Today's Take: Cassel's best effort came in 2010 (3116 yds, 27 TDs, 7 INTs). Since then he has been a turnover machine throwing 21 INTs to only 16 touchdowns. The Vikings will need to add a receiver before either Cassel or Ponder is can be considered by fantasy owners.
|  | Chiefs part ways with Matt Cassel -- Thu Mar 14 10:45 am --
 Vikings interested? | Chiefs released QB Matt Cassel. (Adam Schefter via Twitter)
FF Today's Take: The Chiefs tried to trade Cassel but found no takers likely because no team wanted to take on his contract. The Vikings could use a veteran QB behind Christian Ponder and have been rumored to be interested. Cassel is off the fantasy radar.
|  | Matt Cassel headed to Cardinals? -- Wed Feb 27 11:30 pm --
 Arizona rumored to be interested in QB | Adam Schefter: "Look for Matt Cassel to be one of the quarterbacks on the Cardinals' radar. Cassel also will receive interest from other teams." (Twitter)
FF Today's Take: Between Kevin Kolb, John Skelton, Ryan Lindley and Brian Hoyer, the Cardinals' quarterbacks left a lot to be desired in 2012. Cassel is not elite, and some might argue that he's not even an average NFL quarterback but a change of scenery and a new offense could re-energize him.
