Nnamdi Asomugha will become a FA | Page 5

Just saw on ESPN that Nnamdi's contract was voided and could be a possible free agent. We need to get on this!

Everyone is going to assume he will just follow the money, but that isnt Aso's style. I guarantee he would never, ever play for Jerry Jones or Dan Snyder.

He is a solid guy who wants to win, so he will go with the team that offers him the best chance at a ring, not to whoever throws the most coin at him. Bet on it. We arent talking about Pacman Jones here, Aso is heavily involved in charity work, is a man of God, and has been a tremendous asset to the Bay Area community.

He also loves the Bay Artea....

We might have a shot if Harbauigh and Balke wants him

If he does love the Bay Area this could count for us and enable us to get some discount on him. Especially as he is not a young guy/rookie he is less likely to want to re-locate. Having said all of that we would have to pay the man BIG money anyway.

Move Clemments to FS (or get Champ Bailey if he won't move), dump Goldson and sign Nnamdi and our 2ndary is immediately "championship"

Add either Namukamara or Peterson in the draft and we're solid!!!

When can we even go after this guy? We have to wait until the CBA is figured out right?

Right. No player trades until the CBA is determined. Trades for draft picks are okay though.

Would love the signing, but he will probably go to one of the playoff teams. I won't get my hopes up for this even though it looks like an ideal situation he would probably pick someone who has a chance at a ring.

Signing him would improve our team dramatically.

No doubt...he needs to be the #1 priority in FA. We should cut Nate and make it happen because we could focus on other needs in the draft. Make it happen Baalke!!!

Well it wouldn't be a trade. He would be an outright sign. But free agency can't even start until the CBA is set up. That sucks. Lets do some tampering here and talk to this dude before the CBA is set up. lol. Screw it, everyone else does it. lol

I understand that. I just added other things regarding what can and can't be done until a new CBA is established.

+ Patrick Willis and Justin Smith
and with Fangio aggressive type of defense this is the Defense niners fans can hope for no more vanilla defense. Fangio can blitz all he wants if we get Bailey and Asomugha. Baalke this is your move its time to be known and be a respected GM in the league MAKE A STATEMENT.
