The magic of the Dresden Files universe isn't particularly well defined, so it would be easy enough to say that the bad guy could take the quickening, or thinks he can, or do something else with a 5000-year-old guy to get power.
And you're right: Bob definitely needs to be in there. He's a spirit of intellect (also a perv with a thing for romance novels and porn) who resides in a skull.
My current thought is that, yeah, the only way to protect Cassandra is for her to remain tagged. So after all the trouble that took place with Dresden removing the tag, he then has to replace it on a very (very, very, very) grumpy Cassandra. And even without Cassandra stewing in her own frustration, Dresden is still having a hard time of it, trying to duplicate something that a self-taught wizard from the bronze age made up while using a lot of death magics.
Hmm. As I think of Bob, given that he resides in a skull and I have decided that Caspian was a wizard... what if Caspian was the one who first bound Bob to the skull?
