The Madness of King Davis

Pro Football Weekly has a hilarious article on the lunacy that is Al Davis. As if his strange conflict with Lane Kiffin weren't bad enough (only one season removed from the worst head coach hiring in NFL history), Al Davis is breaking the bank to bring in some very questionable free agents. Here's a breakdown of some of their commitments:

• Nnamdi Asomugha was franchise tagged at nearly $10 million; he says he refuses to return next season no matter how much Oakland offers him to stay.
  
• Head case DeAngelo Hall signed for $70 million over 7 years.
  
• The very ordinary Gibril Wilson signed for $39 million over 5 years.
  
• 49ers castoff Kwame Harris signed for $14 million over 3 years.
  
• DT Tommie Kelly (WHO?) signed the largest ever contract for a DT--$50.5 million--after tearing his ACL last season.
  
• Head case Javon Walker received $55 million over 6 years.
  

According to the article, Oakland is $5 million under the cap and still has to sign the 4th overall pick in this years draft. Good luck, Al.
