Nnamdi Asomugha (All in one)

So.. I am honestly asking. Do you think its a better chance his play has dropped off in the last two years because he was in Philly or because he has been playing for 10 years and lost his step... Ive heard a lot of what I call experts (that have participated in this game from playing to coaching to FO) say he has lost a step or two at 30 Yo.

I think it's a combination of both. But even if he's lost a step or two, it doesn't mean he still can't be pretty good.

With 8 years in the league before he went to Philly, he had to have known how the place was..

There's a big difference visiting a place as opposed to living there. And at the end of the day, money talks... and it was a lot of money. I've moved to places before knowing exactly how the place was(crappy), but did it anyways because of the money. I was miserable... and eventually moved back home for less.

He also does not play special teams anymore, which I think lowers his value even more.

If you think that way, then his price tag should be even more dampened... lowering the risk factor. That said, if I signed Nnamdi, he's not playing special teams.
