Re: Semi-OT: Assante Samuel Among worst tackling Starting CB in the League
Yes, BECAUSE the money he wanted (and got) exceeded his value to us.
How can you say we wouldn't have signed him if he could tackle? Would we have signed him if he covered like Deion Sanders? If he held onto the SB clinching Int?
Based upon the facts, he was not extneded, franchised, and not resigned. If the facts were different (ie his skills) you have no way of knowing what the decision was.
Your argument was like saying Bledsoe would have been traded and Brady kept if we went 2-14 that year and Brady sucked, because Bledsoe was as good as gone. You can't apply what happened as the same result if the dynamics were different.
This is BS. Asante could have been our leading tackler and we still werent going to keep him. He was as good as gone.
