I don't blame them and to be honest with you, I'm shocked they've allowed Nnamdi to lead them around by their nose. You saw how that game went when C. Jenkins agent tried that with the SKins. We left him in the dust and moved onto our next target, leaving him with even less leverage with other teams than before. See the below to understand how they already lost out on a key player because their whole FA so far has hinged around ONE player and waiting on his decision.

As the star cornerback weighs his offers and mulls his football future, the Jets -- one of his suitors -- are paralyzed by the uncertainty.

It cost them a chance to re-sign all-purpose star Brad Smith, who told ESPNNewYork.com Thursday in an e-mail that "everything with the Jets was contingent on Nnamdi." In other words, the Jets wanted Smith to wait before they made an offer.

I don't know what Nnamdi's agent is thinking. Your highest value is going to come when more bidders are involved, and yet each team vying for him have pulled out. Smart teams just pull out, go to the next option and move on. I applaud the Texans for pulling out and signing Joseph and a safety instead of wrapping up a huge sum in one player.
