That's a pretty good price. I would do that.

The article said 5 year/$33 million. I think the Pats could sign Samuel for a little cheaper than that if thats what he is looking for.

Thats a perfect contract number....if the structure is cap friendly.
16/5=3.2

33/5=6.6

There's the basic math. 6.6 mil/year with 3.2 guaranteed. Thats roughly 5.25 and 2.56 mil respectivley in 2006 pre cap increase dollars. Very fair pricetag, if, like I said, it can be structured properly to keep everyone happy. But the devil is in the details!

I would too. I was watching the Lion-Rams game on NFL network this afternoon and the Rams receivers were making him look godawful.
