The one thing that does concern me is that while it may work for one season, Namdi could fall off the next. I actually don't think teams took time to break down offseason game film on him when he was with the raiders and that was because he played for the raiders. They were beatable by any average or better team.

Well, that's no different from any other free agency acquisition the Saints could make.

There are no guarantees that players will play to their full potential and/or that they can stay healthy, so there are always risks involved, but that's the nature of the business.

cap wise i am waiting to see what happens with that one.

I guess if we must take on the retching refuse of dysfunctional teams, we should recruit the crappiest of their rejects. Lock him in and buckle up, and keep a fire extinguisher handy.

........Haha? I suppose all that square peg in a round hole stuff only applies to guys who played defense for us last year then? Seriously, the guy was totally in the wrong scheme and unable to utilize his strengths. Like his ability to disrupt receivers off the line.

Put him back in the right system and there's no reason he can't still play at a high level. No serious injuries to worry about, which supports what others have said about his body not breaking down.. and even if he has lost a step, his natural ability and instincts should be more than enough to make up for it. The elite corners generally stay effective for a lot longer than the average ones. Look at Charles Woodson, Champ Bailey, Deio
n Sanders, Darrell Green, Aeneas Williams etc. I maintain that if the price is right, they would be crazy not to sign him

He's still better then Greer and Robinson.

Robinson probably but this might be the year he bounce back. Remember he our 1st rd pick and he only been in the league 3 yrs. 1st time as a legitimate starter. I bet if anybody invested s much s the saints did will not be so quick to give up on him


Jabari, are you kidding me. They're plenty article you can find he was compared to revis but since new Orleans marketing is not as great of a Oakland or new York he is one of those unnotice players. True, he was nick up for a couple years but he was on the field I felt comfortable whoever he was line up against (Julius jones, Steve smith, or whomever) I blame spags for line up Robinson against they top wr threat

Sedrick Ellis was also our first round pick and look how bad that turned out. Just because a player is drafted in the first round doesn't mean that player will be good. Robinson is terrible and that is why we are going after these CB's in the first place. If Robinson was good, we wouldn't need to bring in anyone.

You should ALWAYS try to improve your team through FA. NA would be an upgrade at CB. Only question is the $$$

I'm not sure Nnamdi offers the best bang for the buck...

And talking with friends that are Eagles fans that aren't stereo-typical Dome Stumbling types but actually know something -tell me he seemed past his prime and wasn't worth half the money...

Plus, it's been document he's selfish and self-centered...

I'd rather go younger and sign a Safety like Huff and give us flexibility and youth...

Greer and Robinson are going nowhere unless traded as money is either guaranteed or costs little and will provide depth...

So why sign an aged corner with limited cap space and the upcoming Graham signing?!?

It's not that my way is the right way, I just make the right way my way...
