Raiders Shopping CB Nnamdi Asomugha

Discussion in 'Oakland Raiders' started by BigBlueBruiser, Feb 23, 2010.

  1. Adam Schefter of ESPN reports via twitter that the Raiders are actively shopping cornerback Nnamdi Asomugha along with most of their roster. Schefter also writes that Asomugha's contract makes him untradeable. The Raiders signed Asomugha to a three-year deal worth up to minimum of $45 million that could reach $50 million back in February 2009, which made him the highest paid defensive back in NFL history.

    I told yall!!! A 1st, 2nd, & 3rd should get the job done..

    Trades that MIGHT happen:
    (Michael Bush) to the Buccaneers - 2nd Round pick <------ (Will happen)
    Tyvon Branch to the 49ers or Rams - 2nd or 3rd Round pick
    Michael Huff to the Packers - 2nd Round pick
    Javon Walker to the Bears - FOR FREE!!! JK (4th Round pick)

    Yo, Call me crazy -- but Al Davis could walk away from the draft with Taylor Mays, Rolando McClain AND Mike Iupati!!!!!!!!!!! This could be one of the BEST drafts in RAiDER history if this were to happen.
    The thought of having Mike Mitchell and Taylor Mays on the same field is quite SCARY!

    GO RAiDERS!!!!

    Nobody's giving up a 2nd or 4th for any of those guys. Also, Taylor Mays is freaking trash.

    I think your more out of your mind than Al Davis.

    For all those five listed, you'd be lucky to get a fourth for Bush, sixth/seventh for Branch and Huff and you wouldn't even get a dead goat for Walker.

    And how the hell are you planning to get three top 20 picks with exactly one first round draft pick? Trade away all your "marvelous" roster? You only have one guy who could even command a first and there's no way anyone would give up a top 20 for Nnamdi.

    And Mitchell/Mays being scary? One can only run fast and the other has the coverage skills of a dead guy.

    By the way, who is your dealer?

    this will never happen Al over paid him for a reason and that is to keep him corners like him are few and far between in raider land. Al is looking for guys who can play man straight up and physical not to many guys can do that why would he trade namdi?

    You really think no team will offer a 2nd or 4th for Michael Bush? Or Tyvon Bracnch? These two guys are talented and could start a lot teams.

    I agree Mays is over hyped. I wan to part no part of Mays.

    I would like to reply to "Andy82"
    "how the hell are you planning to get three top 20 picks with exactly one first round draft pick? Trade away all your "marvelous" roster? You only have one guy who could even command a first and there's no way anyone would give up a top 20 for Nnamdi."

    You guys are acting like the RAiDERS are THE WORST TEAM in the NFL. We have alot of talent!
    To answer your question;

    Nnamdi Asomugha - I could see four or five teams trading for him:
    Eagles
    Jets
    Seahawks (My choice)
    Browns
    Cowboys

    I agree that we probably won't end up with Three first round picks, but anything is possible. Knowing ESPN this report is probably false,so who knows?
    By the way, I DON'T DO DRUGS...
