Asomugha signs one-year franchise tender



Raiders signed franchise player Nnamdi Asomugha to a one-year, $9.765 million contract.
So much for the holdout. No one expected Asomugha to show up at Napa Valley for the start of camp, but he'll be in pads Thursday. "I'm going to go in to camp focused and play the year out and see what happens," said the ultimate team player. Asomugha doesn't see enough balls his way to have IDP value because he's the NFL's premier lockdown corner, but he makes everyone around him better. The Raiders were truly foolish to give DeAngelo Hall the deal they did and leave Asomugha hanging.

Asomugha will sign one-year deal with Raiders - NFL - SI.com

Couldn't agree more. Hall's an overrated trash-talker anyway; Asomugha's a much better DB.

So they have another year to decide what to do and now he will be in camp.

DeAngelo Hall is one of those guys that to me he would do better if he could catch balls with his mouth. He has it open enough and not much of value comes out of it.
