Nnamdi to the Jets is Not Good for anybody

Nnamdi won't be going to the Jets
Being from Boston, the idea of Nnamdi Asomugha going to the Jets is a somewhat scary proposition.  Tom Brady trying to throw at combinations of Darrelle Revis, Kyle Wilson, Dwight Lowery and now Asomugha is frightening.  This would go for just about any team that would face the Jets' defense, but the point of this blog is that it doesn't make too much sense for the Jets either.  You already have a very good to great defense and the only way I see them spending this much money on cornerback, as they would have the 2 highest paid in the NFL if they signed Nnamdi, would be strictly based on ego on trying to have the best defense.  The reason the Jets have not been able to get past the AFC championship the past 2 years has not been defense, it has been they have not generated enough offense in key spots.  This is the same reason that I stated last pre-season that Mark Sanchez is the true key to their success.  As long as Rex Ryan is their head coach, they will have a formidable defense especially with Revis on at least one side.
This is the NFL and not major league baseball, so teams can't go spending money like the Yankees do.  I think a more likely landing spot for Nnamdi would be the Texans and if there is a team that will overspend on the cornerback position, I think it would be the Eagles.  It would not make any sense for a team to spend so much on one position when they have to fix other positions.  Maybe the Jets can spend some of that money on shutting Bart Scott up for us.  Shappoww!
