PFT: Asante to the Eagles?

[BradyToMoss]

PFT:

ASANTE TO PHILLY?

Two years ago, there were reports that center LeCharles Bentley would sign with the Eagles on the first day of free agency.

He didn't.

The rumor was that Bentley had reneged on a verbal deal that had been brokered in advance of the start of free agency, and signed instead with the Browns.

This time around, there are Internet reports from the generally plugged-in gcobb.com that Pats cornerback Asante Samuel has a deal in place to sign with Philly.If true, Samuel can renege without consequence, just like Bentley did. And the Eagles would have no recourse, just as in the Bentley situation.

An unwritten player contract negotiated at a time when there should be negotiations at all is, obviously, not enforceable.

Other teams thought to be interested in Samuel are the Saints, Jets, and possible the Bucs. Samuel is believed to want a contract worth at least $10 million per year.

This might open the Lito Sheppard door

Re: PFT: Asante to the Eagles ?

Re: PFT: Asante to the Eagles ?

I don't care where Samuel goes as we all know he's gone but . . . it's ironic that Arlen Spector's hometown team is, evidently, breaking the rules.

Re: PFT: Asante to the Eagles ?

Good now i can see him perform average out here.
No way the Eagles will pony up the dough for fitz.
They probally will sign hacket, or take a flier on lloyd.

Re: PFT: Asante to the Eagles ?

Too many BS rumors out there. I won't believe anything until it happens. Samuel has signed with half the league at this point.

Re: PFT: Asante to the Eagles ?

If the two rumors are true (Samuel to Philly, Lito on the move), what does that tell us? Philly would rather plunk down $10 million per season than deal with Lito......
