Lol! Exactly! And his attitude sucks and he hasn't played worth a s**t this year. Yeah sign him up. Sounds like a great idea.

He's being asked to do things he didn't do in Oakland. Also being targeted much more often.


I know it's BR, but it's actually a good article with film breakdown.

Philadelphia Eagles: What's Wrong with Nnamdi Asomugha? | Bleacher Report




Interesting notes of cuts that could happen.

Jason Taylor did good for the dolphins and jets as a OLB in the 3-4.....just saying

Huh? If you call 36 tackles and 5 sacks with the Jets good? Then you and me differ greatly in our perceptions of good.

Pretty sure you can get that kind of performance out of any average-above average linebacker in the league.

In the world of Redskins fans, that's good. You can't blame them, we're used to shitty play from players...lol Reality though, is more in line with what you are saying.

for 8million a year, that sounds about right for this town...

I would take Nnamdi and put him at FS in a heartbeat.

If the Eagles cut Nnamdi I would sign him up right away. Last year he was hurt, this year the Eagles are a mess and he's just caught in a funk.

I'd really think twice about signing Asomugha. Raiders weren't contenders with him and the eagles got worse as a team when he signed. And he's 31 years old.

For the past few years, ever since haynesworth- the top defensive free agent that has broke the bank- has not fared too well. Asomugha included. Seems like they get fed and then they are fat and happy. They aren't hungry anymore. Haynesworth seemed to prove this both figuratively and literally.

I would make it a rule to not break the bank with the top defensive free agent that's available especially if they're past 28 years old. I'm glad that teams have taken the offseason championship from the redskins like the eagles and the bills.

Hey for a 36+ year old who only played on passing downs...yes thats good. And good means not very good, not great, a tad above average. He was making plays other than sacks.

...you are a redskin fan...and I recall you being very actively posting in the Free agency related threads...so be careful with what your saying


as for Ruhskins and SFREDKINS posts...wow
I get bashed for saying we should get another pass rusher opposite kerrigan and its he's an overpriced bad FA (who is third in the NFL in the past 3 years in sacks, and gets fumbles and recoveries). But you two are in the Nnamdi boat??? Really? The guy hasn't done squat and look how much he was asking to be paid. Man to man--he sucks. Zone--he sucks. Press zone--he sucks. I know we need CBs, but damn you all don't realize how bad he's been. He's the Haynesworth of CBs

You haven't seen me wanting to sign some other team's trash or rejects. That much is certain. If we bring in other team's rejects, it should be before training camp so they can EARN their starting spot, not given to them due to a huge contract and recognized name. If they want to bring in Babin in the off-season before camp and not guarantee him a spot, I'm fine with that. (even though I don't think he'll make the roster)

I would sign him for reasonable numbers but, as others have pointed out, he is past his prime. I think, at this point, he is a solid third corner and an upgrade over C. Griffin. Maybe he can be a solid CB2 not sure if he is a CB1 anymore.

An article printed about, linked somewhere in the forum (probably this thread), indicated he was an excellent technician rather than a speed guy but has lost a step. As a result, he can't make up for his missteps anymore.

Nnamdi looks like he's running in slow motion out there. Sometimes players drop off quick, others it's a slower decline. Looks like he's run straight off the cliff.

He would play only when we rush four - passing situations - we are bottom of the league in sacks and he is exactly what we need. Plus he wont affect the cap for next year.

Big difference between Nnamdi amd Babin, Nnamdi has been one of the best Cover CB's in the league, Babin had one good year. Look at the pro-bowl #'s and all-pro awards.
