[QUOTE="all about da packers, post: 216456, member: 227"] [b]Asamagha[/b] IF such a move were to happen (Raiders rescinding the franchise tag on Asamagha) I'd love for Ted to go after him. There is one problem I see though. Let's say the Packers sign Asomugha, and he ends up beating out Al Harris as the starter. What do we do then? Al Harris doesn't play Nickel. The only time Al was extensively forced to line up as a Nickel CB per say, was against the Cowboys, when the Boys would put TO in motion and have him lining up in the slot. On those occasions, Al would apply the jam at the LOS on TO, and then either get beaten running after TO, or let TO pass by him and be picked up by a Safety (usually Nick Collins). That's why it looked liked the Packers were in so much zone against the Cowboys, because when Al lined up as a quasi-nickel CB, the Packers used the basic principle of zone coverage. Al is severely limited in terms of being a Nickel CB. So then what would we do with Al, IF (and that is a big if) Asomugha signed with GB, and along with Woodson, proved to be the best 2 CBs on the roster? Would you have Asamagha be Nickel CB by default then? Would Asomugha be happy with a back-up role if he outplays one of the starters? That might be a problem. [/QUOTE]
