Things to think about.
Seattle can't say word one about being interested. Still not to free agency, and Detroit just might be dumb enough to franchise the guy.
Avril was his teammate. Avril took a prove it deal and stayed. I don't think a prove it deal is an option for Suh at all, I am merely commenting about the good vibes he might be getting from Avril. Seattle can't say jack shit about Suh, but Avril can say all he wants. It has not been a secret taht Suh is unhappy with the way Detroit does business for a while now, perhaps he wants a front office he hears good things about.
I still think money will rule the day, and when the bidding gets to 20 million, Suh will be somewhere else. But in the event he goes to the team he grew up rooting for, I will be a happy dude.
Some irresponsible psychoanalysis follows, beware;
Some dudes aren't motivated by money at all. Some people don't give shit about that stuff. Once they get to a comfortable level, they can rid themselves of some money in exchange for personal happiness. It's usually dude's that are a little cooky, little off, naturally rebellious (hint). I cant relate to millions, but I can most certainly relate to the difference between 6 and 5 figures. A few times in my life I've forsaken 6 for 5. The 5 came with a little more happiness.
There are people like that. When you truly don't give a shit about a lot of things, one of the biggest things you don't give a shit about is money. Because, at the end of the day, it's easier to "rebel", when someone cant buy you or keep you on a leash with money. You don't get to be a true counter-culture type if you can be bought.
From afar and based on what I've heard, that's always been my read on Suh. It wouldn't surprise me, in the least, if he rebelled, once again, to what NFL conventional wisdom says he should. Is it likely? No, probably not. But Suh doesn't give a shit and isn't motivated by the things most people are. He's a wild card..
