His price tag went up today but, yeah, I'd be hard pressed not to go the extra mile and overpay just a little to get him locked up right now.

yep. tied with Walt Harris and Rashean Mathis. get this man resigned..hes happy here..hes had a great time especially tonight. he might not ever be a Champ Bailey like player but hes a legit starter who is still learning and getting better. 9 solo tackles and 3 picks? thats unheard of..he stopped the run by flying up and taking the ball carrier down..and lets not forget..hes been on jacked up quiet a few times hitting TEs specifically aswell as Ricky Williams.

He has my vote (and I'm a Bears fan). Great game by him. I'll vote for him to try to help him get there.

Get him signed up, theres plenty of cap room, he will probably hit FA and leave NE because the FO will not pay a little extra

They can always franchise him if he wants too much. It's too bad they don't have more upcoming talent in the defensive backfield to replace him. I don't think he's really worht 6M a year or so. But he was today.

I have always liked Assante and have never had a problem with him.

He makes big plays and the people on here that choose to bltch about him have no idea what the hell they are talking about.

I will be bummed bigtime if we let him go. Lets just resign him....
we have the money don't we??

Aren't we still way under the cap RIGHT NOW?

somebody? anybody?

My two cents, corners cost money... pay him market value, likely to be around $28-32 million over 5 years. Draft a corner in round 1 and make CB a strength of the team.

Projected to be and drafted to be a NICKLE BACK....Samuel has come a long, long way. I called him PinBall his 1st 2 years due to his inability to tackle anybody...he was always bouncing off of them...the the QB's always threw his way.

I remember reading a few times how much QB's picking on him pissed him off...well it worked. He's really not a shut-down caliber CB...more of the #2 variety...I hope this doesn't turn out to be Branch all over again due to that factor.
