The rumor I saw was Suh is seeking a paycheck, where did you see he is more worried about scheme fit? But the more I think about it, if he is in fact worried about maximizing his money, even visiting NOLA is a waste of time. Surely he/his agent knows this. Agree with this post basically word for word. Echoes my thoughts. I haven't seen any rumors about him wanting fit rather than money, but I don't see Suh visiting here with the intentions of being the highest bidder. He's either using us for leverage or he IS indeed looking for a good fit and not just money. Or Loomis came up with some grand promise of Loodoo and making a ton of cap room with possible restructures lol, but I'd rather not kick that can again.

hsfolk Posted March 16, 2018 Share Posted March 16, 2018 I don't think Loomis would entertain the idea of bringing Suh for a visit if he didn't already know he could sign him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JMG5 Posted March 16, 2018 Share Posted March 16, 2018 What price would you guys feel comfortable with the Saints paying him? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Motivated Suh, all the cap that we can afford to give him. Unmotivated Suh, not a dime. In between Suh, about 6-8 mil/yr fully guaranteed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JMG5 Posted March 16, 2018 Share Posted March 16, 2018 The market for the top DTs doesn't seem to be too insane. We might actually have a chance to afford him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mid Iowa Posted March 17, 2018 Author Share Posted March 17, 2018 Crickets............ Perhaps they're negotiating, but nobody has heard a word. We also haven't heard "Suh leaves New Orleans without a contract" so that's a good sign, perhaps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the Saints do sign Suh, money will have to be moved around. Extentions and conversions will need to take place so it will take some time.

Well we already know that yesterday was dinner and today they're showing him the facility, he's also rumored to meet with the Titans today so we'll know something soon. We'll either not let him leave without a contract and obviously you'll hear about that, or we'll hear about him flying to Tennessee and then you know we didn't sign him.

jcvoodoo Posted March 17, 2018 Share Posted March 17, 2018 Colts release Jonathon Hankins... wonder if we lose out on Suh, the Saints go after Hankins. He played very well last year and word on the street is that the Colts are pursuing Suh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JMG5 Posted March 17, 2018 Share Posted March 17, 2018 If he takes the visit to Tennessee then I think he signs there. They can offer a lot more money. I think we're the better fit, but if we get into a bidding war we are going to lose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mid Iowa Posted March 17, 2018 Author Share Posted March 17, 2018 Here's where we find out if he wants money or hardware. If he wants money, let him go, and he can kiss it. If he wants hardware, he'll sign with the Saints over the Colts or Titans, and kudos. You know at that point he's in it to win it, and I'll be on board 100%!

If they offer 5m more per year than us I don't think anyone can be mad at him. Yeah, he has made a lot of money in his career already, but that's a large amount of money.
