Suh to the Dolphins?
- Thread starter litespeedhuskerfan
- Start date
Have read and heard many places his agent will have almost full final say on where he goes. It's about the money first second and third then the winning on this contract.
As incredible as Suh is, I would lose my mind if my beloved Cowboys forked over the kind of money he is going to get. Hell, I don't want the Cowboys to give big money to Demarco. Outside of the QB position, I don't like that kind of money going to any position, except maybe a top 5 WR.
I love Suh too, but these mega $ players can really bog down a franchise. I agree with paying big $ for a QB, but would spread out the remaining $ across the team.
He doesn't save 30%. I am not certain, but I think the highest marginal state tax rate is something 12-15%. In Colorado, it's 4.63%.
Even not having to pay a measly 5% state income tax will save Suh well over $1million per year in his base salary alone. Add in a pay raise, his endorsements and other sources of income and it could closer to $2mil/yr. And that's just comparing to low tax states, not California, NY, etc. That's a lot of extra quarterbacks he can stomp on basically for free....
haha my dude, have you ever looked at your pay stub?
The state isn't taking 30%.
And OP, as a fellow bronco fan and denver resident, please pass me what you are smoking.
My guess: Oakland
Dark horse: Jets
It's a mistake to think only income taxes vary by state. So do property and sales taxes. States that have no income tax make it up through these other taxes, and these taxes often focus on consumption. I assume Suh will buy a mansion and other things that most can only dream of. He'll pay a lot in taxes, even in Florida.
I think Suh would look good in the silver and black. I like Suh and I'm not an Oakland fan, but Suh rough & tough reputation is a perfect fit for Oakland and they've got the money to pay him. Oakland doesn't have the facilities or the recent success to attract top free agents and they've got a lot of money to spend. Maybe they make Suh an offer he cannot refuse.
I think he's the dirtiest player in the NFL and it embarrasses me to know he went to Nebraska. I also hope my Chief's pick him up. He's a bad due who will help you win games.
Not necessarily. Things like groceries may be hardly taxed at all, but luxury items are heavily taxed. And property taxes don't have to be at a flat rate.
The Raiders are WAY under the cap. I think they should sign Suh. Media types are saying that Suh should choose a winning team over taking the most money. In my opinion, I think if Suh doesn't stay put in Detroit, he should go to Oakland. It's pretty common in the NFL to go from really bad to pretty good. With Suh and improving QB play, Oakland could be a threat again in the AFC West.
The Chiefs are my second favorite team so I'd also like to see them pick him up. They'd have to let Houston walk to do so however.

Mark Davis is not a good owner and this team will never go anywhere if he meddles.
Carr looks like the real deal, though.
With the money Oakland has to spend. The new coaching staff. The proximity to his family. The bay area. I would be surprised if he didn't go there. plus, he epitomizes what the Raiders have always been about not including the last 10 years.
