Nnamdi Asomugha

Nnamdi Asomugha is the biggest free agent in the NFL this season and after long awaited days of speculation, he has finally found a new home. The Pro Bowl corner who has been the most sought out player since the end of the lockout made a very surprising decision. His whole career has been with the Oakland Raiders and he felt that its time to move on and seek a championship. Adam Schefter reported that he has signed a 5 year/60 million dollar contract with yes, wait for it.... THE PHILADELPHIA EAGLES! I am a HUGE fan of  both the Philadelphia Eagles and of Nnamdi Asomugha's. This is such an exciting time for Eagles fans as they have picked up arguably one of, if not the best, cornerbacks in the whole entire league! This is a big shock to me as an Eagle fanatic only because they already have two proven cornerbacks in Asante Samuel and newly aquired Dominique Rodgers Cromartie. I really hope that these three can put on their cleats and play in the same dark green jersey together but sadly, its very unlikely. The Eagles will probably keep Asomugha and Cromartie which will lead to the exit of Asante Samuel. Its strange to see a guy like Asante Samuel, who is a proven pro bowl corner, being the odd man out on any team but this is a different scenario. The Eagles have a good problem on their hands and I do expect Samuel to be moved soon. Sadly. Maybe the Jets and the Cowboys could seek a guy like Samuel since they were the expected front runners in the Nnamdi sweepstakes and lost out. The Eagles definitely may have just pulled off the biggest move of the offseason so far and it doesn't appear that the Eagles are done just yet.  Just imagine these three playing on D together..... no team would dare pass the ball to those guys!  And oh yeah, what happens to the Oakland Raiders? They will suck for another consecutive season...Once again, they are in a pickle. They lose their best player to free agency and they have yet to make a big splash in the offseason. It is quite depressing in Oakland right now.


Anywho, this is Julius and this is what you've found in your Sports Locker! Thanks for caring! :)
