Ok, so Samuel wants his big payday. I think we're all agreed on that. Do you guys see the Pats maybe working a deal where they can trade him for a pick or combination of picks? Maybe up to and including the 49er selection? Say slide back to take a less expensive player while stockpiling a later #1 or a future #1.
While I like him as a player, and would like to see him on on next year's squad I just don't see him coming back at $7M per. I can't fault him for wanting some big money. Turning him into another high pick and possibly a future one, while bittersweet, would lessen the aftertaste.
Opinions? Food for thought?
