Nnamdi Asomugha contract voided should Redskins go after him or do you think the price will be too high.

He's a luxury that we don't need.. We're gonna be plenty aggressive in FA but smart-aggressive I hope. If we re-sign Buchanon and continue to develop Barnes we'll be fine. We can even bring back skillet hands Rogers and we'll be ok.

Until they come up with a CBA that has a salary cap in place, I say absolutely go for him. And buy up just about every high priced guy we possibly can.

Yankees/Red Sox/Phillies of the NFL.

THAT would make a nice Jersey........Skillet Hands

Schneed10 · 01-09-2011, 02:41 PM

Are you guys assuming there will be a salary cap, is that why you care about the price?

Because otherwise I have a hard time understanding why money would be an issue.

Alvin Walton · 01-09-2011, 02:48 PM

I could care less about the cost.
I'd say go after him if there is a good chance Rogers will be gone.

cdskins26 · 01-09-2011, 02:50 PM

by the time we are ready to compete he will be 33-34. Pass

SFREDSKIN · 01-09-2011, 02:51 PM

Shutdown corner, I would be all over him like a cheap suit.

tryfuhl · 01-09-2011, 02:51 PM

I don't know.. we play a lot of zone.. not sure that would be the best fit.

GTripp0012 · 01-09-2011, 02:51 PM

Remember: Shanahan thinks the world of Nnamdi Asomugha. Says he's the best corner he's ever seen.

I don't know if there will be room for Asomugha and Rogers both under the salary cap, because I don't know the exact cap ramifications of not picking up Hall's contract option. Or if there will be a salary cap.

I would sign Asomugha before Rogers, him and Bailey are the best corners out there. A class act out of Cal, Lorenzo should convince him to come to Washington.

It seems reasonable to assume that there would be some salary parameter in a new CBA which would function as a salary cap.

NA is going to be a very rich man.

You would probably know better than I, but I heard the only player with guaranteed money next season is Trent Williams. Would that factor in getting under the salary cap or would the presumed salary of every player still count against the salary cap?

GTripp0012 · 01-09-2011, 03:12 PM

In short, if Nnamdi is not a Redskin next year, it's because he did not want to come here. Not because of lack of interest on part of the Redskins.

Eknox · 01-09-2011, 06:10 PM

He shuts down his side of the field, that makes it easier to play D. I say grab him and throw rocks at Rogers....

bigdaddy2348 · 01-09-2011, 06:13 PM

I feel the price for him is going to be too high. Plus we need to continue to build with younger pieces not middle age FA's. He alone isn't to make the defense that much better. I would love to have him but the time isn't right for a player like him.
