This is about as good of an idea as taking Jason Taylor and sticking him as an OLB.

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.

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.

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)

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.

First of all, I said we should pick him up to be a FS. There are a number of cases out there where top CBs that are past their prime have fared very well as safeties (see Charles Woodson with Green Bay).

Second, Nnamdi was basically the best CB in football before coming to the Eagles. Haynesworth was a one hit wonder and obviously a big pr*ck.

Third, no team is going to sign Nnamdi to a big contract. And I didn't suggest this at all.

Fourth, there is a big difference between having a veteran DB adjust to being a FS over an offseason, and bringing a pass rusher who has played as a 4-3 DE his whole NFL career and expect him to adjust to the 3-4 scheme in a matter of days.
