And if they cut him and try and find a quality LT in the open market, how much cap space do you suppose that will cost? His cap number is huge but LT is also a pricey position and anyone who is ready to just cut him had better have a replacement in mind that will cost less and perform almost as well. An offense simply can not function without quality play from it's LT. Like him or not, he was the most consistent player on the O-Line last year. I am simply not cutting him. I could name a laundry list of players that I would let go before Samuels.

I hear ya Celts. But unfortunately, sometimes teams get rid of good players because they have no choice. Its all about the cap now. Like I said I like Samuels, I want him back. But like Daseal and Matty pointed out.....at that price it will be very hard to absorb his cap hit.
