Vrentas obviously doesn't know about the I.R.A. blog, the Morristown flight, and Cromartie to the Raiders done deal yet.

MDL_JET · 07-26-2011, 07:34 PM

I'm pretty sure they're reaching out to everyone. Hopefully they're reaching a little further with this one...

Can we get an official where will namndi go thread or something?

Asomugha, a star in Oakland, is the most coveted cornerback in this year's free agency class.
Paying for Asomugha may be a challenge for the Jets, who have Darrelle Revis under contract for $7 million this season plus an $18 million option bonus. But never say never with the Jets, who have to be enticed by the potential lockdown duo of Asomugha and Revis.
It's not clear how strong the Jets' interest is. On their list of their own free agents is Antonio Cromartie, who played well opposite Revis last year. Earlier today, the team contacted Cromartie.[/quote]

I was going to start a thread that asked "Have we reahed out to Aso?" but I thought the dynamite rip-off was more elegant.

The Jets have reached out to the camp of free-agent cornerback Nnamdi Asomugha, according to two people informed of the communication between the sides. These people requested anonymity because they are not authorized to speak for either side.

Asomugha, a star in Oakland, is the most coveted cornerback in this year's free agency class.

Paying for Asomugha may be a challenge for the Jets, who have Darrelle Revis under contract for $7 million this season plus an $18 million option bonus. But never say never with the Jets, who have to be enticed by the potential lockdown duo of Asomugha and Revis. They are also known for doing their due diligence.

It's not clear how strong the Jets' interest is. On their list of their own free agents is Antonio Cromartie, who played well opposite Revis last year. Earlier today, the team contacted Cromartie.

Earlier today, ESPN reported that Asomugha might be willing to take less money to play for a contender, and that he would be interested in going somewhere where he could work on his intended post-playing career, acting. New York would fit both categories.

Agreed. Classy and understated. Although very cliquey.
