Asante Samuel, who has developed into one of the premier cornerbacks in the league, is set to become an unrestricted free agent and per the terms of a previous deal the Patriots gave up the right to franchise him.

LCB Terence Newman (age 29)
RCB Asante Samuel (age 26)
FS Anthony Henry (age 31)
SS Ken Hamlin (age 26)

This is the first I've heard of this "Samuel" character.

I'll admit I'm intrigued.

Tell me more.

I'd also be interested in reading more about free safety Anthony Henry.

Not going to happen. He is going to be VERY expensive and I don't think you can deposit that much money in the secondary. (because you have to include Newman, Williams, Henry, and Hamlin)

Newman and Hamlin have new mega contracts coming up and we are already weighted down with Roy Williams contract. Our secondary would be eating a HUGE portion of our cap space. Then you have Davis, and Romo eating it with Ware waiting in the wings for his mega contract.

We will be looking to the draft to fill that need. (or Allen Ball/Courtney Brown)

How often are we going to read about signing this guy? And when are any of these folks that start these #$@%^ threads going to look at our cap situation and the amount of money we already have wrapped up in the secondary and decide that the entire topic is stoopid?

why does everybody think newman will get this huge contract? he will be 30 years old and doesn't make enough plays to warrant a "mega contract"

I thought he filled in nicely for Troy Polamalu when he was hurt.


I can only dream we get this guy.

There's been talk over the last two years about moving him from CB to FS

Roy Williams will be traded for a 1st round pick. Greg Ellis will be traded for a 2nd round pick, so will Carpenter, and Spears. We are going to have 7 picks in the first 2 rounds. Book it !

Every older CB can play FS in this league. DUH ! Haven't you played Madden on franchise setting yet ?????
