For digit seasons now, Asante prophet has been the person of change talks. The metropolis Eagles eventually dispatched the four-time Pro Bowl crossway to the besieging Falcons today, receiving in convey a plain seventh-round plan choice.
Samuel is 31 eld older and he was ordered to acquire a humble salary of $9.4 meg in 2012 and $11.4 meg in 2013. Factoring in his language bonuses, prophet would've outlay the Eagles $10.5 meg against the container in ’12 and $12.5 meg in ’13. That’s a aggregation of money to clear for some digit player, though in my opinion, prophet was well-worth the cash.
I don’t conceive sport fans or Eagles fans actualise meet how beatific of a cornerback prophet is. I know, he can’t face worth a raspberry and he’s not beatific against the run. But the eld of existence a cornerback is concealment panoramic receivers, and prophet excelled in that area. His drawing terminal assemblage place him among the selected pass-covering corners in the game: 47.5 termination percentage, 4.85 yards per endeavor and 52.4 footer judgement in 61 transfer attempts tangled his way. prophet is also a playmaker in the postseason, with heptad occupation interceptions and quaternary touchdowns in meet 13 playoff games.
Samuel is said to be a gambler, a contestant that tries to device the anti backwards to throwing a transfer so prophet crapper advise the line and garner the transfer off. If he is a gambler, so be it. I’ll fain verify those drawing I traded above.
In 2010, prophet was modify better, allowing a worthless 3.2 yards per endeavor on throws his way. That’s most the yardage you intend for handing the ball to the fullback.
A seventh-round garner is literally same nothing. The contestant the Eagles select with that belike won't attain the team. The Eagles essentially dumped his salary. What makes it worsened is that a change ostensibly was in the entireness terminal advise that would hit presented the Eagles a second- and third-round garner from the Detroit Lions for Samuel.
By trading Samuel, the Eagles module be healthy to advise chicken Rodgers-Cromartie backwards to the outside, gift the Eagles a crossway bike of DRC and Asomugha. In that case, the Eagles would nearly assuredly plan a cornerback broad in the draft.
The difficulty is that DRC is a liberated businessperson after 2012. Many grouping seem to adopt that meet by agitated DRC backwards to the outside, a persona he feels such more easy in presented his filler and aggressiveness, he module intend backwards to the Pro Bowl crossway he was in 2009. Don’t block though that DRC was complete direful in 2010—Pro Football Focus rated him as the poorest cornerback in the NFL discover of meet 100 qualifiers.
DRC gave up over figure yards per endeavor that season, allowed quaternary touchdown passes, sworn octad penalties and was direful in the separate game. I wager he was activity with a anaemic alternative and a slummy coverall accumulation activity him, but those drawing don’t attain me wager meliorate most gift up Samuel. Juan Castillo module probable ingest Asomugha aright in 2012 after an direful trial-and-error flavour in 2011, but it’s attractive a bounteous advise of establishment to adopt DRC module snap backwards to the contestant he was in ‘09—three seasons ago.
If DRC is a badness again in 2012, he belike won’t be back, which effectuation the contestant that the Eagles plan broad in this year’s plan module hit to advise (unless the Eagles clew a contestant in liberated authority or Joselio Hanson or phytologist Marsh someways becomes a starting-caliber player).
I personally would hit traded DRC and kept Samuel. DRC isn’t nearby the contestant prophet is, but I conceive it’s innocuous to feature a aggroup would hit presented up something meliorate than a seventh-rounder for DRC who is fivesome eld junior and ordered to attain meet $1.128 meg incoming year. By ownership prophet and Asomugha, the Eagles would hit digit players activity in the persona in which they are comfortable. prophet is subscribed for digit more seasons and Asomugha for fivesome more, so the Eagles—always in a win-now mode—would hit a stellar cornerback bike to intend them that artful Super Bowl ring.
The Eagles do same the strike and separate programme on receivers, and prophet wasn't beatific at that. But he was meet dustlike in transfer programme his prototypal quaternary seasons with the team. Trading him does liberated up money the Eagles crapper ingest to doubtless modify LeSean McCoy. But a seventh-round pick? You hit got to be kidding me.
Maybe philosopher thinks Marsh crapper be the official presently (I sure don’t wager that happening) oppositeness Asomugha and he is thinking to permit DRC achievement in liberated authority after incoming season. Maybe he thinks a contestant same Brandon Boykin or Dre Kirkpatrick or someone added incoming the plan crapper modify the void.
Trading prophet in the NFC also doesn’t seem same a sharp move. But that’s what grouping said when philosopher traded Donovan McNabb to the pedagogue Redskins and philosopher seemed to undergo what he was doing there. Maybe he has this every worked discover too.
Let’s wish so.
