It's just a smokescreen on the part of the Lions front office as they attempt to navigate their way through the lose-lose situation they've gotten themselves into with Suh's contract. They can't afford to franchise him & trading him will cost them $19mil vs the cap ... any team signing him has to set aside a minimum $12.7mil in cap space for him, there's only about 12-14 teams that can do that & he's also a free agent in 2015 ... it's just about ugly any way you look at for any team that wants him, including Detroit, ... not too mention he really doesn't perform up to his salary/reputation, seriously ... the Lions defense was on the field for an average of 60 plays-per-game in 2013 and N-drama-kong made or assisted in less than 4 plays per game ... that's basically 6% of plays ... not a whole heckuva' lot for a guy who's getting paid over $12mil-a-yr & supposed to be some kind of stud, ... and he only gets double-teamed 1-in-every-4 plays, or about 25% of the plays he's out there for, not the "every play" some would have you believe.

When they call him "overrated", they are 100% correct ... Suh is a myth, a brand, a "legend-in-his-own-mind" type of player. He's not happy in Detroit, never has been and will not play to his potential until he leaves the Lions. Until then, he's just marking time, playing the system & making as much money as he can ... bet. I called him out on this his 2nd year in the NFL and the Lion slappies 'bout had a fit, ... you should see 'em now all having to fall in line and begrudgingly agree with me, it's priceless, .

I'm sure he'll eventually move on & become the star people try to hype him up to be, but he's really just a high-maintenance, prima-donna biotch in the honolulu blue & silver that basically goes out there every Sunday and excels at little more than gap control, IMO, .

I'm honestly tired of the whole situation/drama with the guy, .
