Asante Samuel Free Agent

I believe corner Asante Samuel is an unrestricted free agent this off-season. I see most believe he really upped his game in the post-season and should be one of the premiere corners available on the open market. Corners usually get HUGE deals, similar to QBs and such.

Do you Patriot fans think they have a shot at keeping him?

Well I would'nt be "The Factor" If I did'nt answer this for you "Buck o"
I like the Patriots but thats the reason I exposed tha "Choke Job
Thats what they get for haveing"a history of trying to get over on there Players .
I don't beleive this team, there the only team in history as far as I can tell who's probaly never planned on compensating anybody that help them succeed.
It started with Maloye,Big Ted washington,law,miGuiness,Givins,branch The cordinaters and not to mention the other corners and Safties.
Man you talking about the "Big Queeze on all that cheese".
If I was Brady I would say break me off right now or I'm going to Bounce!
And If you try To tag me I'm going to retire until my contracts up Then Bounce to the "Show me State and Play for The Chiefs".

Re: Asante Samuel Free Agent

They didn't pay Ty Law and were able to find Asante Samuel to replace him. They won't pay Samuel either, and then they'll go out and find someone to replace him too. It's the NFL's version of Moneyball. The guy taking Samuel's place may not be quite as good, but he'll work a lot cheaper and he's get the job done to some degree. That's just their modus operandi.

Re: Asante Samuel Free Agent

I would be surprised to see him with the patriots next year. They just don't over pay for each position. The one thing they may do would be to franchise him next year but IMHO they won't. As far as what they will do to replace him? I really don't know maybe draft or FA ---personally leaning to draft or franchise him

Re: Asante Samuel Free Agent

They'll try to work out an extension, but will end up slapping the franchise tag on him more than likely, then some team will give him a ridiculously large contract because they equate interceptions with being a shutdown corner next year.
