Ndamukong Suh Thread (MERGED)

Halo · 03-15-2018, 03:42 PM

Ok so Suh had a 6 year $114 million dollar deal in place with Miami.
when he joined them in 2015. His base salary this year (2018) would have been $17 million, and of his contract $60 million was guaranteed.

This guy got paid. His performance has declined and $17 mil is way too much. I think Suh would sign for 10 mil a year for 2 years or close.

I’ve been totally against this potential signing, but I’m going to put my faith in Payton making the right decision. If he and our players think it’ll work then let’s give it a shot.

One thing to think about: Jermon Bushrod was his teammate in Miami and would surely tell us if it was a bad idea.

I've been following Okafor's visit the the Bucs today, and no word out of Bucs camp on an offer or if a deal is done. The longer we don't hear the more it sounds like no offer or he wants to talk to the Saints again.

Hey ... I'm kidding about potentially throwing unlimited dollars @ Suh.

But I keep telling myself ... "win now mode, win now mode". Trust the Saints front office to do the right thing.

suh would more than likely help out SR quite a bit

Okafor left Bucs without a deal...

Every one that is for signing suh, have you seen his stats the past 3 years? the money it would cost to sign him could be so much better spent. We have a de out there that played great before his injury. We could re-sign him for a quarter of the price and get more tackles/sacks. Save this money for depth. Saints don’t lack much now to be the front runner. Don’t waste 10-15 million a year on 43 tackles and 4 sacks!!!!!
