His strong work ethic and dominant performance on the field is matched by nobody, including self proclaimed best player Arbin Asipi Jr. Taken in the 5th round of the S3 draft, he could arguably be the biggest diamond in the rough find of that draft. While I didn’t take much notice of him during the S3 season, my adoration for Eli Kamaka began in S4 when I was brought on as a backup writer for the Defensive Line Standouts articles. This is where I discovered just how special he truly is. Watching him develop into the player he is now was captivating and he is a player I never look forward to facing even if we will never line up 1 on 1 on the field. It’s just a shame that he resides in that literal shithole of a city, Philadelphia. If we could wangle Eli Kamaka before the trade deadline, that would be a prodigious accomplishment but you would have to deliberate who is really saving who in this situation. If for the unfortunate chance we are unable to acquire Kamaka before the trade deadline this Wednesday, his contract is closing out at the end of S8. If I must, I can wait until S9 to welcome Eli into out locker room.
tl;dr @PDXBaller - you should not re-sign with Philadelphia in S8 and test the free agency market. B)
