He wasn't good in 2005, why the hell would they extend a mediocre CB? Should they extend Wilhite right now?
Yes, Samuel always wanted more than his value every year. The Pats tried to renew his deal in 2005 and they couldn't get close. When he was average, he wanted above average money. When he was above average, he wanted elite money. If the Pats knew he was going to be above average when he wanted above average money, they would have redone his deal. But I bet he would be demanding a new contract right now. That is the Eagles way. They resign players 2-3 years into their rookie deal and then two years later, the player becomes a lockerroom cancer (Lito Sheppard, Sheldon Brown).
