The deal is expected to be worth $47.2 million over five years, ESPN reports. Samuel had been seeking a deal worth at least $10 million a year. but phillyBurbs.com reports that Samuel's agent, Alonzo Shavers said he was looking for more like $12 million a year. The New Orleans Saints and Tampa Bay Buccaneers also were rumored to be chasing Samuel. The Pro Bowler had 44 tackles and six interceptions last season with the Patriots -- one for a touchdown. Samuel, who is 27 and entering his sixth NFL season, was visiting the Eagles' practice facility on Friday. The deal reportedly was pending Samuel passing a physical. Samuel was drafted by the Patriots with their fourth-round pick in 2003. He shares the NFL record of three career postseason interception returns for touchdowns.

JETSFAN5180 Posted February 29, 2008 Share Posted February 29, 2008 Im glad this happened I didnt want to see Jets throw big money at this guy and not fill other needs. Draft day may bring a surprise if we decide on CB with #6 pick or possibly trading the pick to Dallas for 2 1st rounders. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
