Suh a Packer?

[mraynrand]

I'd love him in G&Gold. There are so many Bears and Vikings that need stepping on.

Suh in Seattle has a very solid chance of happening.

If they do that, they have to avoid being Lynched.

If the Packers don't end up signing him, I hope Seattle gives him a ton of money, and they can be as cap constrained as Detroit was with his contract. I don't think Suh is giving discounts, I think he's looking for top dollar, so if you sign him, be prepared for him to have a big cap number. Not sure how that works out with the guys they signed last off-season, plus Wilson and Lynch to come, should he keep the Skittle parade going.

If he won't give discounts, I wonder what the top of the market for a DT is? The money Detroit had to pay him because of the hole they dug was a caricature of the city's problems. Like Bradford, he'll be working for a percentage of that next year, although for a different reason - DT franchise tag number was under $10M, less than half of what he made.

A deal that ends up paying him more than $15M/year would surprise me. I'd also guess the 'announced' contract will be ~ 5yr/$100M though.

only 3 dts had a cap number averaging over 10 million last year. gerald mccoy, who got a new 7 year= 95 million dollar deal. suh, and geno atkins at 5 years, 53 million

no other dts make over 7.25 a year

so, i'm guessing he gets just over what mccoy got, probably 14 mil a year

yeah, i think if we would sign him, i would end up loving his antics

That 'and I'm fantasizing' would sure dump any chance of BJ Raji back in town.

There are few loins that need stepping on too.

But I'm sure Ted will concentrate on keeping our own (Cobb and Bulaga) rather than screw up our cap going forward. Sue is gonna want top dollar for sure.

I heard on the NFL Network that Ndamukong Suh may not be going anywhere as the Lions want to somehow retain him.

Good. They can keep the goon.

I'm sure they'd love to, but can they? I also wonder how attractive Detroit is to FAs right now. I don't know much about the city other than what I see in the news, but it sure is portrayed awfully. Would anyone really want to go there?

Are you also hinting that Suh likely can't get away from Detroit soon enough?

It's possible, I really don't know. All I know of Detroit is what I get from the news. Abandoned houses, people's water being cut off, etc, however you wouldn't expect a pro football player to have to put up with that sort of thing. I assume there are some nice suburbs where they live and are isolated from those problems? Beats me.
