On the heels of the Philadelphia Eagles blockbuster signing of Nnamdi Asomugha, the team must do what's in the best interest of winning: keeping all three Pro Bowl cornerbacks on the team.
There has been speculation among the national sports media and the fans that Asante Samuel might be moved to another team because of this move. This has no basis other than pure speculation from what might happen.
The Eagles would be a better team to have all three guys playing in the backfield than letting one go away because another one has taken his spot.
By nature, Samuel is a gambler and is best when he does this. This is how he made his name as one of the best cornerbacks in the business.
Nnamdi Asomugha and Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie are better known as coverage cornerbacks because they do not get the high interception numbers. They are excellent at containing their man, limiting them to shorter yards per catch.
To have all three guys play in the same backfield would give nightmares to opposing quarterbacks on a weekly basis.
Do what's right, Eagles front office and keep all three stud cornerbacks on the team.
