Samuel apparently IS at the Novacare complex...aka Free Agent thread

According to G.Cobb he'll be an Eagle as soon as free agency opens.

I spoke to a source close to the situation who told me that Asante Samuel is in. It's done. Per the source, the cornerback and the Eagles have worked out a deal. Samuel is definitely one of the big-time names in free agency this year, and the Eagles were obviously intent on signing him even though this constitutes tampering. That said, everyone in the NFL tampers. It's a fact. You see free agency start at 12:01 a.m. one day, and they have major deals done by 12:05 a.m. These things just don't happen that quickly.

If the Eagles do indeed land Samuel, you can start the clock ticking on Lito Sheppard's tenure as a Philadelphia Eagle. It's been reported that he isn't happy with his contract, and if he thinks he hates it now, wait until he sees what Mr. Samuel will make.

This could be the whole Bentley thing all over but I guess we'll see in a few hours.

sd...make this the aka free agency thread, i was just about to start it.


also....2 to 1 this never happens now



IF it happens, i'm going on the record as this:

if it's the only move they make, as in they don't trade either sheldon or lito = bad move

if they make this movie and piggy back it with with trading one of the incumbent DBs for a bigtime WR...bend me over and stick it in because i love Asante Samuel

Done.


How does Mitch Warren (whoever the farg that is) say in the first paragraph it's a done deal then start the next paragraph stating 'if' he signs. I smell Bentley all over. By morning he'll be a Saint.

[SunMo]

By morning he'll be a Saint.

it's funny you say that because there is a guy on PhilaPhans that claims he knows that Samuel is going to the Saints, hahaha

GCobb gives the ok to print that shtein..its his website and he announced it

I gotta go with Cobby on this one and say its going down (I just knocked on wood)

[BigEd76]

GCobb.com, EMB and PFT are all crashing at the same time

I am staying up later than I normally do to see what happens after midnight. I need a new hobby.

Also, because I'll stay up, the Eagles will do absolutely dick.


I forgot I want them to get Rock Cartwright. Andre Davis is gone, and Cartwright is solid to really good in the return game. Also a decent backup RB from what I remember.

Great news if true....

But I will not get excited like I did with Bentley...

Fitzgerald or some other top notch WR and I'll be happier than a pig in shtein

Pimp tight.

Now, for the love of GOD, get Vilma and a WR!!!!

Use Lito as trade bait for either....

[pinoyboy2pt0]

i wonder how the b west situation pans out.

now just get a top flight (roy williams, fitz) wr and call it an off-season.

i'd hate to see the defense shut everyone down and we fly between the 20's and still can't punch it on.  we need to put points on the board.

On second thought farg that, Bentley's numbers were being reported then the Eagles supposedly low balled him. I ain't believin shtein.
