This is a positive sign that a deal might get done by the end of the weekend. |

Re: Asante Samuel close on a deal?
What a great weekend this would be for the Pats if they can get this done.

Re: Asante Samuel close on a deal?
Some of it sounds very optimistic, but there is enough doublespeak in there to get too happy about it.

Re: Asante Samuel close on a deal?
No, I don't think they know.. I hope they are close... I'm not holding my breathe though... I would love to see Samuel here as a Patriot, he just needs to get a reality check- he will not be as good as he is here, the system makes him look good, and 2, he may get more money else where, but he will probably be playing on a sorry ass team with no chance of making the playoffs. Take the money they offer you, it's good money, and will "take care of the family"... Ask Ty Law if it's a good idea to leave...

So he cares about his family. I could take care of a family with less than 1 mil a year, yet he needs 10 million for his. I just think that part is stupid. I just hope they can get a deal done. With him on the team it would secure our defense, and we would have no big holes on defense.

Hate to rain on this parade but RotoWorld is saying:
There is "virtually no chance" that either Asante Samuel or Lance Briggs will sign long-term contracts before the July 16 deadline for franchise players. Both players are threatening to sit out the first ten games of the 2007 season. If they don't sign multi-year deals before the deadline, the only way Samuel and Briggs will be able to play is under the one-year franchise tender. They got this info from ESPN insider. |
