On further review, I wish I had not broken character after all. Caught me on a rough morning, but we all have em, so I apologize.

I still think you're wrong about him though. I understand you got to see the worst of him and all, but my argument remains the same. Wrong guy in the wrong scheme.

I can't recall who he played alongside in oakland, I'll have to do some research on that later.. but I find it hard to believe his dominance was just an illusion based on the god awfulness of his teammates. I believe it was Danno who posted a snippet from an article that mentioned he gave up 13 completions and 2 td's in 3 years. The same article talked about how his strength is in playing press man, because of his long arms and ability to disrupt the wr's route off the line. Rob Ryan played to his strengths then, and I'm sure he would do it now too.

Now I get what a lot of you are saying about a good pass rush being a cb's best friend, and I agree. However, that's a 2 way street. If you knock a guy off his route, you disrupt his timing with the qb. If the qb has to hold onto the ball longer, the pass rush obviously has a better chance of getting there. I believe nnamdi can still do this effectively.. and really, we only need him to be effective. Not elite, just effective. His skill set is a necessary part of Ryan's defense, and outside of Lewis, I don't think any of our cb's are big or physical enough to do it.

I hope he signs and proves all the doubters wrong. I think he has it in him, whether with us or with san fran. I just hope its with us.
