Cobb Posted April 27, 2012 Report Share Posted April 27, 2012 ATLANTA (AP) Asante Samuel was willing to restructure his contract to play for the Atlanta Falcons. ''I wanted to be a Falcon, so we made it work,'' Samuel said. The Falcons gave up only a seventh-round draft pick Wednesday when they acquired the four-time Pro Bowl cornerback from the Philadelphia Eagles. The Falcons announced the trade after Samuel agreed to restructure his contract to a three-year, $18.5 million deal. His contract with Philadelphia called for him to earn $9.9 million in 2012 and $11.4 million in 2013.Yahoo! Sports Finally got around to posting it, but I like the acquisition and it should improve our pass rush. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
