Schefter: Ndamukong Suh Wants to Play for the Giants

According to ESPN's Adam Schefter, the Lions and impending free agent DT Ndamukong Suh are heading for a split.
Suh is essentially in the final year of his rookie contract as 2015 is a voidable year. PFF's No. 2 NT/DT in 2013 and No. 4 in 2012 is prepared to move on and is going to break the bank on the open market. Schefter says Suh would like to play for the Giants or Jets to help build his brand in New York, although the Cowboys and Bears are also expected to have interest.


Time to start dreaming?

These are the same people, who only see the tangible numbers (interception, pass defended, etc.) without seeing the nuance of the position. That's why many of them were touting how Steve Brown was great because of his gaudy numbers when he was far from great.

Prince has been consistently great for the past two years. He may not get you the interception numbers, but the guy is just rock solid as a CB.
It actually works cap-wise  
dpinzow : 9/29/2014 10:57 pm : link
if we extend Eli (giving us a new Bank of Eli) and sign Prince and JPP with cap hits of about 8 million per year each in the first year of their new deals, where they get guaranteed money. It might even work if JPP's 2015 cap hit is 13 million and Prince's is 9 million. The Giants actually have a lot of money available under the cap for 2015. We have a projected 21 million, which will increase substantially with Eli's new deal being backloaded and Rolle's smaller cap number next year. Those two moves will offset most of JPP's and Prince's contract bumps and still give us room for Suh
And the probable departures of Kiwi and Jenkins  
dpinzow : 9/29/2014 11:01 pm : link
which frees up another 9.6 million (7.4 from Kiwi and 2.2 from Jenkins)
if it really is possible to re --sign prince jpp and rolle

And then still have cash to sign Suh i dont know how anybody wouldnt want him
He is the best DT in the league and is an absolute force and makes this dline one of the top 3 dlines in this league
not gonna happen

He's not a TC type guy
Hey, if we have the space available, sure  
David in LA : 9/30/2014 12:08 am : link
but I'm not breaking the bank for Suh. Hankins isn't Suh, but I think he gives us a similar physical presence in the middle for a fraction of his cost. Honestly, I think JPP gets north of $10m. I'm not sure that we'd have as much dough as we think, then again, we could see a substantial increase in cap with the revenues from the new TV deal.

of a few years aqo (when he went after Haynesworth) might have tried to get that done. But not now, he does not make those decisions anymore. He wasted enough $$$ on Canty. Besides, this guy is also a head case, who could be anthother Haynesworth if things do not go his way. NO way.


The casual fan might think Canty was a waste of money, but he occupied double teams pretty consistently for us, and he filled a position of huge need at the time. Just because his stats didn't show up on the box score does not mean he never lived up to his contract.
I think the problem with Canty is that he was overpaid relative to

Coefield, the player he replaced, who was a better player with a better contract.
Yeah, but we didn't 'waste' money on Canty  
David in LA : 9/30/2014 12:18 am : link
it's such an uneducated statement to make.

Yeah, he was a solid player.
Suh  
giantgiantfan : 9/30/2014 1:17 am : link
probably wants to play for anyone who will pay him big bucks. Second, people questioning the Prince? WTF.
Giants pick up Amukamara's option

Per ESPN. Spotrac lists his 2015 salary at $6.8M.
