I can see $7-8 mil per year toward the back end, but not $10 mil per year, at the beginning of the contract. It's all in the signing bonus and you can lower a player's cap number per year. It's all in what a team is willing to give UPFRONT. I'd give Samuel $20 million in guaranteed money, EASILY. Give him a 7 year contract and that is only a cap number of less than $3 mil per year in pro-rated bonus money, add a lower salary number and he'll be alot less than what some think.

Sorry Bro, I'm just not seeing it.
The schemes are incredible, as is his front seven.
If Samuels continues at a high level if he changes teams, I'll gladly eat my words.
Somehow, I don't think that will be necessary.
