Nnamdi Asomugha Update Thread

[tatmanfish]

man, where was it said he was looking for $20mil?

The Revis contract was only 4 year, 46 mil.

2010: $7.5 million in base salary. No signing bonus.
2011: $18 million option bonus (first day of league year), $7.0 million base.
2012: $7.5 million base.
2013: $6.0 million base.

Close to $15mil a year would be the highest paid CB in the league.

The Bucs were "real quiet" when they landed K2, who has set tampa records as a TE.

I'm reading that that story of Hasselbeck signing with the Raiders is a false rumor.

[Bschucher]

There is going to be tons of BS stories for the next few days methinks. The fact that they can openly negotiate but not sign until Friday is going to make for a world of rumors until 6pm Friday.

IDK why the heck they won't move signings to open tomorrow. I think that its stupid to make teams wait that long. They have been waiting long enough.

We may be givin him a massive signing bonus or something

Just so many emotions hoping that this is true and that Nnamdi takes it.

I think it is hilarious all of these people taking as fact that A) these are the offers that have been made by Dom, and B) they are completely insulting to Aso because of his demands (which you are also purporting to know as fact)

Give it a rest. And if you people are going to post "reports" link to them, so may have a shred of credibility (even if the report is from "incarceratedbob!" lol). So far, nobody can prove that Stroud even claimed that number (even if he did, it is a toss-up if it has a shred of truth)

I knew "don" would make an offer too! The Don always comes through




... and yes, keep us posted by all means! "this guy on Twitter" sounds like a great source

With $15M more than the next nearest team, frontloading is our trump card over every other team in the NFL. Any other strategy and we unnecessarily level the playing field. With the Julio Jones move, the Bucs need to respond and this would be the ultimate response. We know a healthy Aqib can shut down White. Put Aso and Talib against the Falcons, with an improved pass rush and Matty Ice melts!
Get it done, Dom!

[Native Buc]

C'mon Dom make this happen!
