The Philadelphia Eagles signed CB Asante Samuel to a 6-year, $54 million dollar contract.  If Samuel reaches all of the incentives in his contract it will push the value to $60 million bucks.  Samuel played in 16 games last season for the Patriots and he made 46 tackles, defensed 18 passes and he picked off 6 passes including one that he returned for a TD.  Samuel has now played in 75 games in his NFL career and he has made 237 tackles, defensed 79 passes, forced 4 fumbles and he’s intercepted 22 passes.  This was a great signing for the Eagles as Samuel is an impact player at a position that they needed help at.
