Ed Hochuli 3:16 Posted February 29, 2008 Report Share Posted February 29, 2008 Eagles signed Asante Samuel to a six-year contract. ESPN's John Clayton says it's for $54 million, with $6 million in incentives. The key is the first three years and Samuel probably will make roughly $10 million per-year over that time. We think Samuel is only a borderline Pro Bowler, but his gambling nature matches up well with Jim Johnson's pressure defense. This could put Lito Sheppard on the open market.

balta1701-A Posted February 29, 2008 Report Share Posted February 29, 2008 He does make sense for Philly, I'll give them that. No idea how it fits with their cap situation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Historically, Philly's done a great job managing the cap. That's how they were able to break the bank for Kearse when the Bears were trying to land him. Not that that says anything definite about the situation today, but I imagine they're okay. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
