Well what did he tweet him saying?

[backshoulderfade]

Well what did he tweet him saying?

Dont know how to get Tweets on here from my phone but he said something along the lines of "here's what indy looks like today" with a picture of some kind of tropical setting.

[PeterBowman]

Pat just said what Indy looks like right now....(and it's a picture of a tropical beach).....it's pretty funny.

Is Suh really asking for $26 million a year? That's insane.

[Dustin]

Is Suh really asking for $26 million a year? That's insane.

I seriously doubt that.

[04DarkShadowGT]

Is this actually legal?  Could it be considered tampering since Suh is a Lion still?

 

I know he is not specifically asking him to be a Colt but still.

I don't think so.

I doubt that could be considered tampering, i mean all he said was this is how indy looks right now and that was it. 

[Andrew Luck fan club]

That's good stuff. 

[pgt_rob]

I have mixed feelings about it since we have a lot of holes to fill. If we could possibly get him and still develop our O-Line, then I may be happy. What's the reality of all this?

[That Guy]

Is Suh really asking for $26 million a year? That's insane.

 

No, but I think he would count around $26 million against the Lions if they chose to franchise tag him.

 

He is reportedly asking for around the six-year, $100 million deal that Watt signed.  That's around $16.6 million per year.

No, tampering I believe is only if the owners or staff talk to him about moving. Players try to convince each other all the time.

[JColts72]

Hope Patty was not wearing his dress when he sent him the tweet. Suh will add needed Toughness, but the cost will be very high.

did pat get a job in the colts front office?

Players can contact each other. They do it all the time.

[corgi]

Correct, I remember D-Free joking with Fat Albert before he hit free agency about becoming a Colt. It was a random ESPN interview before the Pro Bowl. It's insanity if anyone thinks that this isn't commonplace.

[Nick93]

Also remember, a similar thing happened with Vontae Davis. The Colts couldn't strike a deal until free agency already started.

[lollygagger8]

Lol, Indy the tropical get away. Patty Mac ftw! 

[NBColtsFanatic]

When are they going to start resigning pending FAs. Why wait so late all the time?

[Superman]

I don't think tampering applies to players.

[Superman]

Deadlines spur action.

[buccolts]

And, it's with THAT frame of mind that Pat takes a jump in the canal.

[Warhorse]

did pat get a job in the colts front office?

No, but I hope he does after he retires a colt. Maybe in media relations. 

[Luthais]

Ole Pat has a sense of humor.

[NewEra]

Suh, Knighton, Jones .... Wow, I would love that dream

[Dark Superman]

This is hilarious..

[ponyboy]

Is Suh really asking for $26 million a year? That's insane.

 

No, that's just what it would have cost the Lions to place the franchise tag on him.  And the reason it would have been so high was because he was a #2 pick in the draft when rookie contracts were still ridiculously high -- and with the franchise tag he would have to make 120% of what he made last year or the average of the top DL in the league.  I think it was the 120% of what he made last year is what made the franchise unreasonable for him.  That situation won't happen again under the new CBA (at least the huge rookie contracts for high draft picks which is what lead to this).

 

Had they franchised him I bet he would have signed it immediately and played next year for $26M.. then became a free agent again the next year.

[scooter4910]

No, but I hope he does after he retires a colt. Maybe in media relations. 

I was hoping he would take over the Bob & Tom show after they retire.....maybe call it the Pat & Donnie show.

[oldunclemark]

Is Suh really asking for $26 million a year? That's insane.

No..that was his salary cap hit..That's why the Lions had to step back..

Colts could make a strong offer but they have a lot of major players to sign in the next year..

But just so Suh knows how good the weather is this time of year!

[southwest1]

Well what did he tweet him saying?

Thank you for saying that PC-32. I can understand if a forum poster is not familiar with how to display a tweet properly which is fine, just please tell me what was said for future reference PeterBoman if you ever start a thread like this again. 

 

Why? Because it's like saying a comedian was hilarious last night without including his or her set or any puchlines. It's a peep peeve of mine actually. It's like saying, "LOL! You had to be there dude. It was a riot." 

 

Well, I wasn't there but can you at least give me a sample? Kudos to those members who gave SW1 the necessary context! 

[southwest1]

No, but I hope he does after he retires a colt. Maybe in media relations. 

Yeah, Pat would be a genius in media relations & fundraising for charitable Colts causes too. Pat could ice to an eskimo, oil in Iraq, & convince wealthy individuals to open their wallets at will. He's a natural Indigo. 

[Valpo2004]

I don't think tampering applies to players.

 

I agree, I don't think tampering applies to them.  There has been more then one instance of a player trying to recruit another to his team.  Many which are much more up front then this.  

[snkdy]

Lol, he keeps it going.

Andre Johnson would be a great get for 2/$11mill. He's like the old man version of Dez Bryant!

[snkdy]

There's probably a team willing to pay him more than 2/11 mill though.

[Luck_Is_Skilled]

Maybe, and I think he'd be worth it especially with us. Im sure Grigs wont break the bank but Im positive AJ and the Colts will both be on each others radar. No denying he'd be an excellent pick up for the monster. He's still an absolute stud in my eyes.
