    I disagree. Tons of danger signing Suh and then asking him to play in a position he hasn't played before.

    I know it's not the same situation (sad that I have to clarify that around here) but that's what the Redskins did with Albert Haynesworth. Didn't exactly work out.

    I think suh would do fine at de in a 3-4 especially with Casey on the other side. I would not want us to use him at nt

    I agree that he probably would but I sure as hell wouldn't risk $100 million on it.

    Someone had been taking their douchebag pills today.

    Why reference AH if it's not the same situation? Asking Suh to play DE is not a big deal at all, he is one of the best defenders in the league and will be welcomed here with open arms.

    I really don't understand the Worilds love when he and Morgan are the same players. Why sign guys to big contracts that "just missed" getting to the QB. If you are going to spend go after players that has gotten to the QB like Hardy if he can make transition to OLB (don't see why not if an aged Julius Peppers could).

    Also if there is a way to get Suh then get him. He would fit in any defense because he is that kind of player, which is an IMPACT player. The thought of not going after someone like Suh because we can get Leonard Williams I can't understand the logic in it. Williams COULD turn out to be a beast. Suh IS a beast. He is not like Haynesworth and never had his work ethic or passion for the game questioned. He has made lots of money already and still gives 110% on the field. This team needs an identity on defense and if we could get players like Suh, McCourty, Hardy, and Ngata if released then the D would definitely have a nasty attitude that could get to the QB while stopping the run as well. We have the cap space and could create more with releasing other players. Give Morgans money to Hardy and Griffins money to McCourty and you really haven't even dabbed into available cap space by that much.

    Leonard Willams could be a beast and he could not. Playing against college players is different from NFL talent every week. He was the big dog on the field in college. In the NFL there are a lot more big dogs on every team. Let us not forget that Chance Warmack was supposed to be the best player and can't miss prospect in his draft class and look how that is working out so far.

    Sorry about stepping on your toes with Warmack. I'm sorry but just can't get too excited about Warmack yet. He graded out well near the second half of the season but was that due to turning the corner or because he didn't face any talent because the rest of the makeshift O-line at that time continued to get dominated by everyone else opposite of them. We won't know until next season when we have a healthy O-line. I hope he has but I just can't get too excited until I see the whole starting O-line again to see.

    I just want to see this team get some identity on defense. We have the cap space and so do a lot of other teams. We need some big time players and players like Suh can give this team some identity. I like Leonard Williams and I'm for him somewhat but I would take a known commodity over the unknown any day, especially since we actually have the money this time to sign these people without hurting us in the future.

    Saying that playing a player out of scheme could potentially be a bad idea makes me a douchebag? OK bud.

    More this part and a generally condescending tone.

    You don't want Suh we get that, but we are in out last week of dreaming here so please do not disturb!
