Remember Nnamdi is still going to get paid 4mil from the Eagles this year.

Most likely we'll get one or the other but that would be crazy good if we could get both.

Honestly, I think that mostly likely they both end up signing elsewhere, but the optimist in me still holds on to the hope of signing at least one of them.

Yep like Lee909 said in another related post, it is highly unlikely that Nnamdi leaves the Bay area or Pacific Northwest (Seattle) without a new deal.

never a good sign when they leave

Smith gone to the Cheifs for 5ml and Coxs signed for similar average.Cant see Lewis signing for much less.

Adam Schefter‏ @AdamSchefter
Next CB deal likely done is in New Orleans. Saints are close to deal with Steelers free-agent CB Keenan Lewis that could be done today.

Sean Smith got 15 for 3. With the cap restrictions, seems like a lot of these name guys are being had for a much smaller amount as they would in other years.

I'm guessing if we sign Lewis, it might been cheaper than that. At the same time, I thought Smith was pretty overrated.

Keenan Lewis - Pittsburgh Steelers - 2013 Player Profile - Rotoworld.com

ESPN's Adam Schefter reports the Saints and free agent CB Keenan Lewis are "close" to a deal that could be finished on Thursday.

Lewis made the trip down to New Orleans for a visit on Wednesday. The soon-to-be 27-year-old played a lot of zone in Pittsburgh, but Saints DC Rob Ryan likes to play man. Lewis has good size at 6-foot and 208 pounds, so he can handle it. He and Jabari Greer would make a nice outside corner duo. Mar 14 - 2:17 PM

Am I the only one that thinks Jabari Greer played just as bad if not worse than Patrick Robinson this past year?
