Chiefs Nnamdi - Page 3

ChiefAshhole20 · 02-06-2013, 11:34 PM

I've got a buddy who is a huge Eagles fan and was telling me earlier that there is a good chance that Nnamdi will be released because of his cap hit and that Philly doesn't feel as if a 32 year old highly paid CB is worth the trouble with Chip remaking the team. IF he does get cut, would he be someone we would want? I doubt someone of his reputation would get less than 8 mil a year, but with Cassel and Jackson's cap hit likely being reduced, would he be a smart signing, or would just using the draft or cheaper younger CB in FA to obtain our other starter be the way to go?

Package Cassel and our #1 pick for him.

You don't want him, trust me. I suppose it is possible that he regains some form of productivity, but one thing that stood out to me with the Eagles were his incredibly poor ball skills. When a ball is thrown up for grabs and he is in coverage he gets totally lost. He has no idea how to adjust and make a play on the ball, he gets out-muscled by receivers, and gets turned around and confused. He was always out of position to make a play. Letting a receiver post him up and you see him make a futile effort to try to knock the ball away. He was oafy as all get out.

To make matters worse, he looks like he is running in mud when the receivers are running on turf. He looks a step slow on every play, and even his tackling left much to be desired. He whiffed on too many tackles for my liking, and even let the ball carrier drag him yards down field when he did wrap up.

I personally think he is totally shot, but stranger things have happened than a player regaining success.
