should we get samuels and then get the best cb at #10 and now we have the best secondary? round 2 get a lb or safety? if we trade a 3rd round pick for vilma that would be nice.

I hope he and Will Smith can get that explosiveness back, and have QBs running for their lives. I hope we can find a couple beasts to man the inside while allowing our DEs to do what they do.
What do Nnamdi Asomugha and Champ Bailey have in common? Both missed the playoffs.
What do Aaron Ross, Corey Webster and Jason David have in common?
Asante Samuel is looking for a 10yr 100 Million dollar deal with 30 million guaranteed!!!
That probably puts the Saints out of the scenario. Cleveland is saying that they want to talk to him...
PER KFFL
If that's the case, I would see how we are in terms of other free agents but I'd likely pass. He is good but not $100 million good. No one is IMO.
Florence or 2 draft picks could be had for a pittance compared to that.

Why is it 10 years $100mil contract crazy? Its only $30 mil guaranteed, so I would structure 5 years $30 mil, which is about $6mil/year. That's not too bad.....
Huh? I don't even understand your post.
It's $30 million guaranteed. $100 million total. "5 years $30 million" doesn't factor into the equation in any way shape or form. I'm clearly misunderstanding you.
Maybe I'm misunderstanding this...... but wasn't Donte Stallworth given a contract by the Pats of about $36mil for I don't know how many years....but ONLY $3 mil guaranteed for 1 year. After the year was gone, Stallworth was cut, and the Pats only gave up $3mil.
Why can't the Saints do a similar deal? Its only $30mil guaranteed after all....the rest will be money no one will ever see! They can structure it any way they like....as long as the $30mil is paid, after that they can cut Samuel, just as Donte was cut....why can't they do that?

Donte had no bargaining room so he signed a loaner contract like that. Samuel will not agree to a deal that sees him only get 30 million dollars and cut after 5 years.
Because there is 0% chance Samuel would accept it? I mean hell i'd like to pay him 20 bucks and a bubble gum wrapper, but it takes two side to negotiate a contract. Stallworth took the only deal he had on the table after the Eagles floated rumors that he failed a drug test.
Samuel isn't going to agree to a deal that only guarantees him $30 million in the first 5 years and has some absurd year 10 salary of 60 million dollars. Even if Samuel was an idiot, his agent isn't.
