What Team Will Sign Nnamdi Asomugha?

I think the Jets are getting Orlando Pace'd. The Texans are the team with the money and Nnamdi is just using them to drive up the price for us.

That's because the texans caught him with his pants down. Lots of ppl thought guys would be waiting on aso to set the market. aso probably thought the same thing.

I guess that theory is now debunked since there have been a few guys already on the move b

He was playing a game and playing his suitors against each other.

Now.

What's he gonna do?

I wonder if the Niners and Jets came down on their offers after we were out of the running.

I was one of the guys saying that (along with guys on Sportscenter and NFLN). BUT. He played it out too long and he got burned.

Personally, I'm psyched. Joseph was the guy I wanted.

Who do you think will be the better player next year and moving forward?

My money is on Joseph. Even if aso goes to ny. Joseph is Faster and I think more physical. He's all football player.

I think he matches up extremely well with the colts receivers.

I'm pumped about this signing alone. If we get manning ill be 100 percent sure we'd win our division.

If you check some of my posts the past few weeks, I was really hot on getting Joseph and one of Mikell/Manning/Landry (or Goldshon in a pinch) as opposed to getting Nnamdi.

Nnamdi's a bit older and Joseph is just coming into his prime AND Joseph would be less money.

But I wanted the Texans to be players for Nnamdi because he's the highest rated guy out there. But I never thought Nnamdi wanted to come to Houston. I didn't much want him if he didn't want to be here.

I would not be surprised if Joseph has a better rest of his career.

According to NFLN, it's now down to the Jets and Cowboys.

Jets have this wrapped up, I think his agent knows this is the last contract that he is going to get and using other teams as a bargaining chip to drive the price up.

Their defense isn't going to give up more that 10 points very often but that offense isn't going to score more that 10 either. I think Rex can live with that

I am not impressed. The Jets now have two of the same player. Shut down man playing corners. So as an OC I send my receivers out on go routs and throw underneath. And if they do break off to cover underneath I kill you deep.

There is a yin and yang when it comes to the secondary.

Aso is going somewhere he does not fit. For his sake I hope he is more then a one trick poney.

I'm betting it was always the Jets. Funny how it was first the Texans, then the 9ers...then the Texans again...then the Bucs...and now the Cowboys.

The Bucs supposedly not very interested in the first place (they play cover 2...) and the Cowboys who already dismissed the idea before the offseason started.

Glad Rick learned from past mistakes.
 
Can't post the link from my phone, but Paul Greco on twitter says the Texans are still in it.
Someone from the Texans organization said yes when asked if still in it. Says they have 9 to 12 mil left.

I honestly don't know how and think it is a false report

Agree. You can't be clearing space for a CB and give a guy 48 million over 5 years with a bonus, then get a top safety and then have this magical 12 million sitting around.

who is his agent? IF his Texan's contact is saying yes... would the Texans act like they are in it,(find it hard to believe, other 31 teams salary cap guy knows, what each team can or cannot do) .. anyway for conversation sake...

would the Texans act like they are in it ,so, they basically are doing the agent a favor and boost his "mealticket" (aka aso) so that he(the agent) can possibly have a shot at one of his other clients and give the Texans a slight discount ?

Well he wouldn't be acting in his client's best interest so that could land him in trouble. But then again how often do the really do the right thing? LOL

Someone said Asomugha and Cromartie have the same agent. Not sure if that's true or not though. Maybe Cromartie still an option if we're still looking at DB help?

It was not too many days ago, folks were saying no way Texans could have money for ASO as upagainst cap at $118m. Then we sign JJ for $12m against cap and Manning @ about $7m; soooo where did the $17m come from?

I for one, am surprised that Nnamdi's agent hasn't pulled the "mystery team" card...there's still time, I guess....
 
A winner is you!

I'm going to place my bet on the Philadelphia Eagles.

They need some help in the secondary, and another year of explosive offense from McCoy and Vick, paired with an improved defense makes this team a serious favorite for the Super Bowl. I'm sure the Eagles would love to add him to the team, and I believe they will have the cap space to do it.
