Anyways. He's about as shutdown as you can be. So while it's an unprecedented contract, who cares. Pay the man if he's that good.
Picks are an overrated stat to me. I mean, most of the time they just happen because the qb throws a horrendous pass.

Dude is nice...Totally shutting down your man is elite, You dont really need ints if your defense can depend on you to shut down your man.Originally Posted by AG 47
Someone would rather have Asante Samuel over Nnamdi Asomugha?
Don't get me wrong, Zant is good, but he's not on Nnamdi's level.
That playmaker %%$$ gets nullified when he's getting killed by the opposing team's #1 (see. Roddy White, Larry Fitzgerald)

Um yea you do if your offense is terrible.
His is great at what he does but until he shows some playmaking ability he is a one trick pony. And he needs to show it more so because of the team he is on.

I know you arent talking about me. My argument is legit and i know my stuff. He doesnt help the Raiders win. What isnt legit about that?
No one said it was bad being a one trick pony but versatile players are better then one dimensional players is that even a debate?

How does shutting down 1/2 of the field not help the Raiders?

Its it really that over your head? Gunna and Dre already layed it out and its a very legit argument I think. Teams that win the turnover margin winchampionships not teams with corners who shut down half the field what part of that is hard to understand? No one is saying he isnt good or valuable but thathe could be better.

so if Asante was on the Raiders they would win a championship?
what are you even saying?

...If they had other decent players that could key on the other half of the +$$$%$$ field they would create TO's genius. He makes the game 10x easier forthe other 10 players on his defense. The Raiders were a top 10 pass defense this year. Your right, he definitely isn't helping the Raiders....

That there are multiple things to being a good corner back beside how good you are in man to man coverage?

How does someone create TO's when NOBODY THROWS THE $*#$+!% BALL TO HIS SIDE OF THE FIELD! How many balls were thrown to him this season...15-20?

^^ And Asante doesn't benefit from the Eagles scheme? *@+? The Eagles had what, the #2 defense last year? Jim Johnson constantly puts pressure even when upby 3 TDs. Asante is allowed to take all his bum @$% risks because of all the pressure the Eagles generate. Try that +@+% on a team like Denver
P.S. How did Asante do against Fitzgerald in the NFC Championship

you're right, there are more things to being a good CB than how good you are in man-to-man coverage.
just like there are more things to being a good RB than running the ball.
that said, Adrian Peterson is a better football player than Reggie Bush, and Nnamdi Asomugah is a better football player than Asante Samuel.

Its not that one is better than the other (I prefer man corners so I would take Asomugha) they just have different strengths that are both important. Its likepeople are trying to grade corners on one objective scale and you cannot do that. Its like comparing apples and oranges.

Right because if I hold the opposing teams #1 receiver to 0 catches, i basically take the biggest scoring threat away from the other team, but hey im nothelping my team win im just out here looking pretty.
