IMO Abdullah was one of our better defenders.
The guy was good in Minnesota, too. They offered him a 4 year deal before he went on his religious pilgrimage.
He is also solid in the locker room...his teammates even voted him in as a team captain...that speaks volumes to what kind of man and player he is.
I'd have no issues with it if they re-signed him for 4 years.

I always want quality depth, especially if it comes cheap. But I don't want to walk into next year with Abdullah as our best option at Free Safety. He's much better than our current dumpster fire options, but instead of comparing him to Lewis, I'd rather compare him to an average starting free safety. If you do that, he's just a guy.
