The thing about Samuel is teams may not be willing to give up much if he wants alot of money also. They have to take whatever they can get. A high #2 would be worth it, IMO. What else can they do? He'll hold out, the rat.

That's BS. Samuel is a Franchised player. That means he has a minimum of 4 years experience (in a job where experience is everything).
As for you thinking that a High 2nd is worth it, well so be it. I think it sucks and would be a major rip-off considering that the Franchise compensation is 2 1sts. Hell, the Pats got more than that for Tebuckey Jones. And Jones wasn't nearly the player that Samuel is.
Sorry, but the trade is garbage.
Also, everything that I have read about Wendling says that he is better in coverage than in the box, though he does have the ability to play SS. Its that sort of versatility as well as the intangibles I mentioned that have him on my board.
