The Clements deal effectively killed any chance the Pats had at signing Samuel for fair value. Let him walk; the Pats have more important holes to use that extra money to fill.

Sorry for misleading with my post; the point I was trying to make was, outside of Denver, very few teams play their corners in strict isolation a majority of the time. With most modern zone defensive schemes, the role of a CB isn't what it used to be; you can get away with having two merely above-average corners instead of an All-Pro or two and not have to worry about your defense lagging.
I'd go as far as to say in New England the safeties play a much more important role in the defense than any one corner does.

My main gripe with Samuel is that he likes to gamble far too much for his own good. This past season it worked out well; he conned QBs into throwing his way a great deal and to great success but how much of that is luck and how much skill? He's not good enough (yet) to make a career off of deception and I don't know if he will ever be. I sure don't want to pay that much to find out.

samuel has NOT demanded a trade, he has demanded MOVEMENT on the negotiation front and a trade if the patriots will not sign him. seeing as how the patriots have not decided to not sign him, and he hasnt given up hope of signing here for the money he wants, saying he has demanded a trade per se is grossly inaccurate
