Significantly less than he was looking for.
Instead of getting Nnamdi money, he's signed a one year deal with the Niners. Probably worth around $4 million.
Kinda wish we could have kept him regardless of dropping picks, which started when he dropped that pick 6 in the playoffs in Seattle years ago... he was a good cover corner and I think the d will show his absence.

Carlos was probably surprised to find the market for his services was not what he thought it would be. One year deal....um

I'm surprised that he could not get more than a one year deal. I know the drops are not a great thing for a CB to have but he is an above average cover corner.

I hope this brings him back down to earth. He thought he was an elite corner and thought he deserved to be paid like it. Fact remains, he is a good cover corner, aggressive tackler, but when it comes to elite you have to be a playmaker. He just wasn't a playmaker. I'd take him back in a second. I always thought he could cover anyone, wasn't really concerned about the picks, although it was frustrating.

A shame we couldn't keep him. I hope Josh Wilson is a capable replacement.

Yeah especially for that price tag, one year 4 million. Wonder if he ust wanted out of here no matter what?
Doubt we'll miss him much.
If he was so valuable we could have kept him fairly easily. It was time for everyone to move on.
He's not as bad as his detractors say, but certainly not as good as his supporters think either.
