Asante Samuel or Carlos Rogers

Luda34 · 03-25-2014, 12:13 AM

Ok hear me out I've always been a fan of Asante so right now he should be pretty cheap to get and he would upgrade our secondary. I know the draft is coming up and if player haven't sign yet they may sign after the draft but I would like to see Rogers or Samuels on our team.

This the same Asante Samuel who played for the Falcons the past couple of years? Absolutely no thanks...

You can find better, cheaper, and younger in the draft, sorry...

Both those corners are 32+ years old

Maybe but it looks like we are clearing out the older guys.

We just let go of a 32 y/o corner, and he was better than both of these guys, even with the knee injury. No thank you. We can draft a corner.

Greer isn't better then Asante Samuel.

Child please, Samuel is garbage now. On the rare occasion he is not dinged up with some hamstring or ankle thing (seriously this guy makes Tracy Porter look durable) he is getting caught flat-footed in coverage because he guesses wrong all the time. And when he guesses right, he still gives up plays because he's lost a step and can't close on the ball anymore. There's a reason the Falcons cut his sorry butt when he had a reasonable contract.

And Carlos Rogers is completely washed up.

When did wins and losses become the determining factor of which player is better? Especially for a position like corner. I could see if we were talking quarterback, but that's still a reach in my opinion.

So much more played into that. That's not just a cut and clear, black and white decision maker. And I don't want Asante anyway. I saw somebody say Greer was better, and I disagree completely.
