I just want to know how the Eagles are going to manage having Nnamdi, DRC and Asante Samuel all on their roster. All 3 are starter-caliber but one will have to come off the bench.
Going to be playing a ton of Nickel I guess. I'm guessing Samuel will be the odd man out, but he's too good to sit for too many plays.
He's also too expensive to sit too much.

I thought there were rumors of Asante getting traded. I wonder if it will be a situation where some CB gets injured and they would trade for him.

There was some speculation of Nnamdi playing some safety

Really SS? Seems like a waste for Nnamdi too play safety. He literally takes the best WR completely out of the picture.

I think it's just one of the many options they're considering.
He wouldn't be moving to safety full time, just playing there in certain packages so they have all 3 corners on the field. I'm sure they'll be pretty creative to get them all out there, assuming they don't deal Samuel.

They want a first-rounder according to what I just heard on the radio.

Don't see the skins being very active in going after osi,and i doubt the giants would trade him to any nfc east team.he's not worth a 1 anyway.
WP said the skins just signed shane graham.
