Also, Packers released Nick Collins whose career is over from a neck injury.

I would have never guessed Samuel could be had for a 7th round pick

Late-round pick from Atlanta. Samuel takes a big paycut from his current 2 year/$21.3mil deal with Philly. New deal is 3 year/$18.5mil.

Going from $10.65mil/year to $6.17mil/year.

Wow, Atlanta gave up only a 7th rounder.

I can't imagine that the skins could have gotten him for that.

Thought the same thing...but then again his contract is significant

But they re-did his contract...I'm just surprised b/c the Iggles usually rob a team blind in their trades.

Still $6 million + per year is a lot for most teams cap-wise. I guess I'm not too surprised there wasn't more demand for Samuel's services.

If Asante = 7th rounder

then Jabar = ...?

I'm confused now. He'd probably go for nothing if this trade is the tone setter for the weekend.

Mike Shanahan says Jabar Gaffney could remain with Redskins - The Insider - The Washington Post (http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/football-insider/post/mike-shanahan-says-jabar-gaffney-could-remain-with-redskins/2012/04/25/gIQAJtFIhT_blog.html)

Mike Shanahan now says that there's a chance that Jabar Gaffney could still be a Redskin. Asante Samuel was worth more than a 7th round draft pick. Gaffney's value would equal that of a 6th or 7th round draft pick. The Falcons basically got Samuel for almost nothing.

Uhhh good news but what the hell is Mike's deal? Why did he think there would ever be a robust market Gaffney? He's 31 and his best season ever was in our offense. If Mike never understood Gaffney is more valuable to the Redskins than he is to every other team he just....doesn't....get it.
