QB O'Connell to be Patriots backup? : The Providence Journal reports that because New England has signed its 94th overall draft pick in the 2008 NFL Draft, quarterback Kevin O'Connell, backup QB Matt Cassel's days as Tom Brady's backup could be numbered. (Updated 07/22/2008).
Injury Report

Fantasy Analysis
The Pats haven't taken a QB that high in the draft since picking a guy named Drew Bledsoe first overall. Unless Brady gets hurt, neither Cassel nor O'Connell really have any Fantasy value. We still think Cassel could win the backup job, but speculation would argue against that. Either way, neither are worth adding off the waiver wire unless something happens to Brady.
