Boy, based on history...this is a good point.
But, based on recent trends, I don't think they will vary from their plan....I hope

He's coming to a division built on grind-it-out run games. He had better be able to tackle. I guess in the end, I'm really not that worried.

the nfc east is slowly moving away from being a grind it out division but he definately needs to be ready to tackle some darn good rbs

Yeah I think you're right. I went off a rumored number. Spoke too soon.

Welcome to the board

Hell, that's a bargain compared to Clements last year, right? What a deal!

It is actually MORE than Clements' deal. Clements final year of the contract is one of those dummy years as is the money in it. Taking that year out makes it worth only 9 mill a year while Asante got 9.5 a year.

Yeah I don't think he's that good, and I heard he's got somewhat of an attitude problem...I hate the eagles, so I like seeing them get a guy like that.

It's official.

ESPN - Eagles sign Samuel to six-year contract - NFL

Tha Posse · 02-29-2008, 08:22 PM

He tends to do better against smaller WR's, so lets just get someone who can tower over him.

Tha Posse · 02-29-2008, 08:23 PM

How did T.O. do against him?

Ruhskins · 03-01-2008, 01:34 AM

I'm still suprised the Eagles got Samuel. They need a Wide Receiver badly, they have no one to throw the ball to. Oh well, I guess good for us that they continue to not have receiving thread?

Well if that Lito and a 1st round pick to the Cardinals for Fitzgerald rumor is true...

Fitzgerald would be a great pick up for the eagles.
