Suh and Lions Agree To Terms

Finally! Though it has only been three days, they have been three of the longest days I remember as a Lions fan. Three days Ndamukong Suh held out as his agents Parker and Barnes dealt with the Lions brass, and finally they have come to an agreement. Finally, tomorrow, Ndamukong Suh should truly begin his career as a Detroit Lion.

Whether it was Suh wanting to be paid more than Bradford, his agents wanting their client to be paid, Suh telling his agents to quit messing around and get a deal done, or whatever, we may never know. It does not matter. Ndamukong Suh was paid handsomely with a 5 year contract worth 60 million and 40 million dollars guaranteed. With added incentives, Suh's contract could reach a ceiling of 68 million dollars. But now the money does not matter either.

All that matters now, is that the rookie defensive tackle can get into camp and start practicing with his teammates. The next time they have a practice in full pads, Suh will be a part of it. When the Lions open the preseason, Suh should be up to par with his teammates and ready to play. The fans can put the money issues behind them now and get behind their beloved Lions.
