Visiting with the Saints today, then goes to Nashville tomorrow to spend the weekend with the Titans. Seahawks and Cowboys both also have interest, but apparently won't touch the asking price. Saints are cap strapped and need to convince him to come down on the money. Titans have about $45m in cap space after signing Butler/Lewis.
Reasons why I think he ends up a Titan:
- Our new DL coach, Terrell Williams, coached him the past 3 years in Miami and adores him.
- Titans have a lot more cap space than the other suitors.
- Titans are already a playoff team and Suh could make them dangerous.
- Titans have excellent team culture, especially with a guy like Vrabel at the helm now. I believe Suh's "attitude concerns" would be silenced.
- The man who knows him best, Jim Washburn, is living in Nashville and is apparently part of the recruiting process this weekend.
I've got to think there's a fit somehow. Jones slides into the middle, draft an every down ILB(trade up for Smith?), and the defense is elite.
