MERGED: Nnamdi Asomugha signed

All the big names as usual are getting crossed off the list rather quickly.

 

This is odd I thought he was unhappy playing in Oakland. I guess money changes peoples minds rather quickly.

 

Asomugha signs record deal with Raiders

3 years minimum 45.3 million could escalate to 50 million, man that that contract that nate clements signed with the 49ers looks pretty cheap now

He could donate 50G my way to pay off school loans... and future school loans... it'd be like chump change to him! That's A LOT of money!!

 

At least he didn't end up at the Pats*

 

It is a lot of money but good move by the raiders in my opinion.

 

no way i'm giving him that much money in the GM game he'd walk

 

Wow your like 30 mil under you can totally afford it!!!!





Stinks that he is off the market, but he was going to be tagged if a deal did not get done so we had no chance anyway.

 

my goodness thats alot of money... i knew he was going to get paid by someone... but that much? wow, just wow...

 

wow that is crazy and will screw up everyone else. I mean were going to see 100 million dollar contracts for corners soon! (not really but wow!)

 

and as long as Oakland sucks and Miami is good, we won't have to face Asomugha again until he is on a new deal.

 

He had 28M guaranteed reasons to change his mind.

 

Ok, so Oakland cut Hall and Wilson, and will likely cut Walker. They may cut Tommy Kelly too.

Nhamndi will cost $15m against the cap (how much will Russell, Mcfadden and Gallery making?).

If those guys (all Hall, Walker, Wilson, and Kelly) got cut, that would be like 1/6th their cap right there, right? Nhmandi is like 1/8th himself.
