Asante Samuel signed by the Eagles

http://www.nfl.com/news/story?id=09000d5d806f522c&template=with-video&confirm=true

To a 6 year $57 million contract.

So, with this high of a contract, it looks like Trufant is going to get some leverage in his negotiations with ruskell and co.

random 300 character fact: Women blink nearly twice as much as men.  

A place to bury strangers.

That or loose some leverage
It seems that the Hawks were already offering this much
Coach Owens = Scruffy's spell check

What an asshole.
I wanted Tru to come cheaper.  Anyway, I think Samuel is good but overrated.  It seems like he takes too many chances and breaks coverage attempting to jump routes for picks too much.  The best CBs aren't always the ones with all the interceptions, but the ones the QB doesn't throw towards...

That being said, Samuel should be a huge addition for the Eagles.  Sheppard and Samuel?  Jesus Titty-fucking Christ.

Blitzes
Imagine the blitzes Jim Johnson will be able to come up with now that he has a shut-down corner. The lives of all the NFC centers got a whole lot harder.

TWO shutdown corners.
Lito Sheppard's no slouch.

Rumor is, though
that the Iggles are shopping Sheppard.
