AKM311 Posted March 6, 2007 Share Posted March 6, 2007 Def does not mean no Bly! I like the signing because it keeps our ST together which was the only bright spot from last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pjfootballer Posted March 6, 2007 Share Posted March 6, 2007 I like resigning our players. Especially a standout on Special Teams. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know, I was being sarcastic... hence the two smiley's. I thinks its an ok signing. If we get Bly, and some other blue collar FA's or even draft one, he may not make it through training camp. I like him for his special teams though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bedlamVR Posted March 6, 2007 Share Posted March 6, 2007 hmm no contract details though so I am guessing 8 years $81 overall and $23 million SB to keep in line with clements..... ...seriously though i like the Ade as long as we never have to play him on defence .... I wonder how well he would do a LG? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dreamshatterer Posted March 6, 2007 Share Posted March 6, 2007 Awesome re-signing!!! I've always like Jimoh for his hustle on ST. I know he's not the best CB on the team, but he always done what he was told to do to the best of his abilities. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lovetoaster Posted March 6, 2007 Share Posted March 6, 2007 I had no doubts he was going to re-sign, but regardless, I am really happy to have him back. He is a great role player and really works hard on ST. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spartacus87 Posted March 6, 2007 Share Posted March 6, 2007 I know, I was being sarcastic... hence the two smiley's. I thinks its an ok signing. If we get Bly, and some other blue collar FA's or even draft one, he may not make it through training camp. I like him for his special teams though. He'll make it through training camp- Gibbs loves the special team studs, and Jimoh really is one of the best special teamers we could have. I love this signing and have been waiting to hear about it for awhile now- I'll always connect Jimoh to trying to play corner against the Eagles in 2005 in that final game at Philly to make the playoffs, and he had to leave the field because of an irregular heartbeat- guy's dedicated to the team and loves being a Skin. We need to keep guys like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know he's not the best CB on the team, but he always done what he was told to do to the best of his abilities. Exactly, i love the signing. These are the kind of team players you keep around.

REDSKINZ-RIDEORDIE Posted March 6, 2007 Share Posted March 6, 2007 A good signing; a good special team player! And we better keep him there. I'd rather have Chris Samuels play in our secondary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dead Money Posted March 6, 2007 Share Posted March 6, 2007 This dude is seriously like herpes. Just when you think he gone, he breaks back out!!! I'm all for his ST play and all but this guy sucks on D and made me burst a blood vessel in my head last year I screamed at my TV so loud. ST players should be able to contribute at their respective offensive or defensive position (at least somewhat.) ie: Khary Campbell As a CB, he's a steaming load :pooh::pooh::pooh::pooh: I hope Jerry Gray can do SOMETHING with him and pray once again for no injuries to our secondary!
