Nnamdi Asomugha Update Thread

[Bucs N Beers]

Nnamdi has said he'd take less to join a contender. Plus no state income tax could help.
Negotiations have to start somewhere.

That is not even in the same AREA code in terms of what is wanted/expected. Extreme lowball offer if that is true. Hes going to have to add prolly 20+ milion to that contract.

[Bucs N Beers]

Also, I wouldn't think 14.625/yr would be labeled as HUGE $$$ when he's hoping for 19-20

We haven't even made the playoffs yet under the new regime...I think the Bucs could land him but starting negotations on the extreme low side of things might turn a player off all together. We threw a crapload of money at a worthless pile of manure named Albert Haynesworth but we won't break the bank for an ELITE TOP 3 CB? Pffft.

[Bschucher]

According to Stroud....that number is 14.625 mil a year. That is NOT going to cut it at all.

Well Dom really screwed us on this one

Please tell me this is a joke post...

To me Aso and Reggie Bush would be like christmas...maybe a lineman too! Come on Dom make it happen.

If Dom is really interested in Aso, I think he gets it done...considering he didn't with Haynesworth (thank god) but he doesn't want to get a rep of not reeling in the big one!

Yea, where the hell are you getting this from?

Incarceratedbob just said Cromartie to Oakland.

Incarcerated Bob got it for 3 packs of smokes.

Do we know for sure this is what we offered him? You never know, it it's a lowball it's not like that's all we have to offer him we have $56.6 million to play with, I feel like if that was our first offer either way we could match any bid for his services.

[jerseybucsfan]

Better not be a final offer or else he'll be left in the dust. Add about $15M to that and you have a shot.

[GodlyQB#5]

Matt Hasselbeck will sign a deal with the Oakland Raiders.

If the numbers are in fact accurate.....then maybe Dom isn't really interested in Aso at all....

The "offer" is just a PR move on his part...
