Asante Samuel free agent

According to NFL.com, the New England Patriots could place their franchise tag on free agent DB Asante Samuel.

Good move? Will Samuel be a Patriot next season?

Re: Asante Samuel free agent

he said he would be very unhappy with the franchise tag

im not sure if he will be with the team next year or not......but i have come to trust the Pats staff to be able to put a winning team on the field

Re: Asante Samuel free agent

Thought I heard on the NFL Network today that the franchise tag would guarantee Samuel $7 million. I can't imagine them doing it, not for that kind of money. I mean, are we even absolutely certain that Samuel is the real deal here?

As long as Belichick keeps winning, I think they players who stick around will be happy. Until it's their turn to have their head on the chopping block, that is. There's not too many elements to the Patriots formula that are irreplacable, and Pioli's a master at scouting talent.
