this has been discussed many times so I won't go heavily into this, but Asante is gone after this season. reasons being:
overvaluation of CBs in general
many teams with plenty of cap room
dumb teams who spend money unwisely (Redskins)
expensive franchise #
good INT #s (highly valued - overvalued?)
Patriot's refusal to break the bank for non-pro bowlers
goodbye Asante
Can't enjoy the guy's three interception performance for even one week without a bunch of people saying he's gone. Oh well, the nature of a message board I guess. It's almost enough to go back to reading a newspaper, but not quite.Absoultely correct. I would put the chances of Asante coming back at like 12%, I would be shocked if he is in a Pats uniform next year.

So in 10 years, Brady and Belichick are probably gone, Kraft might have sold the team and it could be back to bleak days à la former great teams like the Browns and the Packers. So why not enjoy it while we can and see what happens down the road. I don't know why I'm answering anyone with a moniker of TomBrady'sGoat anyway.I have no idea who this is directed at. No one in this thread was trying to be a downer or was decrying the impending loss of Asante or however you want to interpret it. The OP asked a simple question and got a pretty simple answer.
maybe you should stick to Parade magazine. hard for even a guy like you to be upset by anything in there.
As for bball831, i'd put it at maybe 5% though I think that might be high.
Samuel is worth franchise money to you? Just going off of 2005 base salary figures, that's over 4 million for one year.Samuel gets franchised if he doesn't sign an extension this season, an occurence I still think is possible. Why? He may run a bit hot and cold in coverage but he plays tough and is pretty strong against the run as a tackler, he hits hard for his size. Plus, the CB's would be gutted and essentially starting from scratch if he walks. I say he's a Pat next year unless he is franchised and traded.
This year the franchise number for CBs was $7,226,000.Samuel is worth franchise money to you? Just going off of 2005 base salary figures, that's over 4 million for one year.
Yes, here's why- say he came to senses and decided to sign a reasonable contract with the Pats, say $13mil for 4yrs.
