I say theres a 33% chance Nnamdi's in DC. A 33% chance he's in Houston. And a 34% chance he's in Philly. Why Philly? Because their a 'contender'.

What it will come down to is this: Money, then if all teams give him similar contracts, he'll go to the contender.

dallas not in the running? I think it was just some speculation from some of the talking heads, but I recall some saying dallas was a possibility. Newman is gettin up there & they weren't happy w/Jenkins last year.

I say there is a 99.9% chance you are wrong on your percentages. There have already been reports he doesn't want to go to Houston and he's looking for a contending team. (which leaves us out of the running) Dallass and Philthy are the two teams I see in the running.

I don't agree with it coming down to money. He could have resigned in Oakland if it were about the money.

I don't see him landing here at all. The bidding war for him is going to be crazy.

I would say no. As someone else mentioned we just have way too many holes to sign and guy like that. Plus why would he come to a team that's in rebuild mode? He's going to end up on a true contender.

There will be plenty of time for front offices around the league to consider Asomugha.
First off, no team is even permitted to pursue a free agent until the end of the current NFL year, March 5th I think. So no team can even approach Asomugha until that date.

Also, the current CBA extenstion EXPIRES in March. If there is not a new CBA in place, then there is a lockout.

I also suspect that free agents around the league will abstain from signing any new contracts until a new CBA is in place, since that agreement will most certainly address veteran defintiions and salary caps as well as a rookie wage scale.

And those of you dreaming of a league WITHOUT a salary cap? Dream on, that is first and foremost on the owners agendas is that salary cap. Without a salary cap, the owners will proceed with a lockout.

So plenty of time for teams to consider Asomugha.

Also, can you imagine what the "market price" will be for a DB this year now that both Asomugha and Champ Bailey are Free Agents?

Wow.

You guys need him in the worst way. Your secondary is god awful.

Don't think he'll end up here. Price is too high, not sure he's a good fit for our style of 3-4 defense, some depth in the corner market, and they might do something crazy and play Kevin Barnes...nah, as good as Nnamdi is, I don't see us backing up the Brinks truck for him.

If people have Really been following the whole Nnamdi thing, you should know:

- The new imposed Salary cap will hurt a team like the cowboys and not effect the redskins. the cowboys can sign Nnamdi if they don't bother resigning doug free and release Terrance Newman, but stephen jones has said that they intend on resigning doug free as their top priority.

-Houston Is in the running, I don't see anywhere where Nnamdi says he doesn't want to play there, They with a good QB and amazing WR and great running back gives them a great championship contending offense, it's just the huge question mark of a defense they have, being that they have money and a CB need, Nnamdi is definitely an option that is very possible.

- The Raiders will not resign him because he hates al davis and his unwinning ways.

- The Jets are a possibility, but only if he signs at a lower rate than what he's asking...not going to happen. Contender wise, it could happen.

- The Eagles want him, but have back up plans (Ike Taylor) if they can't get him/he outprices himself for them.

- The redskins have been named a possibility for a while now. Shanahan loves him from the denver days. We are BIG spenders. NFL writers and analysts have had us linked to Nnamdi for more than financial reasons for the past few months. One CBS.com writer who predicted AH coming here a few years ago is predicting Nnamdi coming here..not saying;just saying.

Meaning of this post: Don't knock out any of these teams from getting Nnamdi (except oakland)

Cowboys see Asomugha as huge long shot | ProFootballTalk (http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2011/07/06/cowboys-see-asomugha-as-huge-long-shot/)

Roy Williams could be victim of salary cap | ProFootballTalk (http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2011/07/06/roy-williams-could-be-victim-of-salary-cap/)

Dallas would have some serious house cleaning to do

Don't read too much into the whole contender thing. I say that because Moneys the key to everything. Take Charles Woodson for example. Woodson, like Nnamdi was a pro bowl corner leaving oakland in his 8 year. Woodson said he wanted to leave for a team that would be a contender. He went to Green Bay who was coming off a 6-10 season. You can Not tell me he signed with them because he knew they were a super bowl contender, 5 years later they were but that season, no not at all, he by the way signed an 7 year $52 million contract, which was big bucks on that market, that year.

Look at AH for this case. He said he wanted to get paid and be on a contender. The Bucs offered him a few million more than us, and he said he came here because he believed we were contenders; The bucs offered about 2 million more in guaranteed money. Either way the guy was gonna get paid, and money was his first and most important factor.
