Default Pay Asante

The guy is our best and most consistant player on defense. I hope the Pats find a way to keep him in Pats colours after the season.

There's a very easy way and you even mentioned it in your title

If Asante doesn't deserve big money than I don't know who the hell does

Asante deserves big money and he WILL get it.

Just not from us.

The Patriots were built by paying players less money than their talent is worth on the FA market. This allows us to field more talent than other teams that are bound by the same salary cap.

Asante, like Nate Clements before him, will be offered substantially more money than his talent is worth.

If we are going to continue winning Superbowls on a consistent basis, we need to let Asante walk.

I felt like Asante didn't deserve the money.

He clearly does. He's damn good.

It will be sad to see him go, but he deserves whatever salary he can get.

You can thank Asante for tonight's win, and keeping alive a perfect season.

It just wouldn't be a Sunday without another "pay Asante" thread.

Pay him. I don't know another CB on that team that would have made a play tonight that Asante has made all season. However, Gay has made some nice plays but you can tell how valuable Asanate is to that defense. Hobbs has been giving up a lot yards this year. Doesn't get into to many pass breakups either.

Isn't he getting paid? He is under the franchise tag, which matches the highest salary for that position. Lock him up in a nice contract, but enough with these "get paid" threads.

This is the year. We put our failures in the past, it's a new year, a new defense. It's time to prove to the league that the Patriots are back and aren't going anywhere and they will be the last ones standing in Feb.
Update: Well that didn't work out as I had planned. Next year baby, next year 19-0 we go. Next year.
