Quote:I don't think Suh is a good fit for the culture Bradley is trying to establish.   The Lions made him a team captain, and they have a new coaching staff, and they are installing a new defense, and here we are in the first voluntary workouts, where players can meet with coaches, and he hasn't shown up with the other players.   He's not there.  It's no wonder they want to trade him.   I would say no.  He doesn't fit our culture.

Freeman:

"Suh is a captain beginning with a new coaching staff. This would have been the perfect time to make a positive impression on his new bosses. Instead, he decided to stay home. It's irrelevant that he could still show up to mini-camp or training camp in shape. It's more about leadership. He's a captain, and captains are usually the men who set the examples."

 

And here we are trying to establish a positive team culture.  Do you really want a guy that doesn't show up in the situation the Lions are in?   Not me.  

 

Plus he's expensive and he's going into a contract year.   This is not a good fit for us.
