Ndamukong Suh tries to bust out of his slot

Posted by Gregg Rosenthal on August 1, 2010 11:08 AM ET
On Saturday, we read a report in Detroit that indicated No. 2 overall pick defensive tackle Ndamukong Suh should sign by the end of the day. That didn't happen.

On Sunday morning, we confirmed why. ESPN's Chris Mortensen reports that Suh's representatives asked for more money than No. 1 overall pick Sam Bradford received -- $90 million over six years for Suh with a whopping $56 million guaranteed.

ProFootballTalk can confirm that Suh's reps were interested in busting out of his slot; that's why Florio posted on Friday that signs pointed towards a Suh holdout. (We're on day two of the holdout.)

It's hard to believe Suh will get more money than Bradford, but that's the negotiating point Suh's agents started with. They could try to make the case Suh was the top player in the draft.

PFT heard the word "Crabtree" last week in connection with Suh's possible holdout. Lions fans can only hope they get Crabtree-level rookie production from Suh, but without all the drama leading up to it.

I wouldn't put this on Suh himself. He's got one hell of an ambitious agent, though.

who does the agent work for?

those weirdos stick corn cobs in their butts

There goes his rookie season.

SUHWIEEE

McBride's pads ain't going to carry theyself.

I'll just say I'm very happy with our front office for getting all the picks signed and in.

It's true, the agent does work for the player, but the reality is, these kids are manipulated by their agents and don't really understand that they are actually in charge, in most cases.

From Schefter.

He's got to pay for all those IPads he's paying for to put in all the Nebraska lockers.

Last year before the CBA expires and rookie salary caps are all but assured?
His agent is acting responsibly here IMHO.

If you were going to be coached by Gunther, you'd want to maximize that first contract, too.

Dumbass.

Agent works for the player, not the other way around. Remember, the more $$$ the player gets, usually the more money the agent gets as well.

Let's try that again, (in sentence form).

This is because Suh has a Big Ten education now.

Gatta give it to our front office for getting the deals done before TC.

Laz doesn't cut his grass it cuts itself.

The Lions need to pay up. Suh is totally worth it.

you forgot the "SH"

anybody who attended sister fuccckkkker university is only doing what is told to him by his greedy ass ivy league agent
