    Asante Samuel Has Let His Demands Be Known

    The representatives for Patriots franchise player Asante Samuel say their agency has not been contacted by the Jets.
    Samuel wants an eight-year, $80 million deal and the Jets have shown interest, according to a report in the Boston Herald. A trade or signing still seems unlikely, as the Pats reportedly would want two first-round picks.
    I'm sorry but there is no CB or even player outside of the top QB's and maybe LT that is worth that kind of money.

      The NFL needs to do what the NHL has done with a maximum individual contract. It'll never happen, though

        Players play thier first 4-6 years to get a shot at that one big contract.

        I dont blame him really, I mean our own Nate Clements set the bar. The sad part is he will likely get it this season or next. Same with Briggs.

            Thats just the way the NFL is moving, I suspect you will start to see a lot of these type contracts.

              I have a feeling we'll see the first $200,000,000 man soon.

                They need to gurantee the contracts like in Baseball. That would put an end to all the back-loading.

                  But aren't baseball contracts full of clauses?

                    Leave that for soccer. David Beckham just signed a 5-year deal worth about $250 million to play for the Los Angeles Galaxy. I guess he earns $10 million a year in direct salary, but with endorsements and profit sharing, he will earn about 90 dollars for every second he is on the field.

                    $250 million in five years for playing soccer. Who the hell watches soccer in the United States, anyway? Actually, some people call soccer football, and David Beckham is one of them. So really, we already have seen the first $200,000,000 man in football if you want to get technical.

                    This actually makes me mad.

                        Beckham's contract was actually a 5-year $25M deal. The other numbers were projected endorsements that likely won't materialize.

                          he's talking about ducking out of the contract and playing in england next year.

                          it might be done already.
                          My wife told me that if I had a dollar for every girl who found me unattractive, girls would find me VERY attractive.

                          MY WIFE SAID THAT!!!

                            That would be great. I'm really glad that this is happening to the Patriots right now.
