Colts want to toughen up

So the Colts want to toughen up. If this article holds any real value, I would say we pounce. Thoughts?

Given the cost and his apparent attitude problems, I'd be very hesitant to go after him. Could end up being another Albert Haynesworth.

The problem is the cost, both in terms of the trade and his salary.

Suh has a completely different attitude than Fat Albert. Suh always has been a hard worker and gives top effort during games.

He is a luxury the COLTS cannot afford given their other needs. The o-line needs to be fixed, the defensive backfield needs more players, and money needs to be saved for the second contracts of Andrew, TY, etc.

Everything I've read about Suh says that he is a locker room headache. He makes poor choices and his comments after them make me believe that he is one of those guys who just doesn't "get" it. He is a physical marvel, but not worth the trouble and cost, imo.

This defense is already too old and too expensive, not enough young talent. No more trading 1st round picks for a few years.

i agree he is great. But if colts worry about signing all those players in two years, we do not want him

There's a reason why guys of this ilk are available in trade.

Patriots will grab him. Seems a head case, but I've no idea to what extent. Wish we could make it work because I'd love to have that kind of force inside.

Suh's attitude has been much better in the last 2 seasons, and he barely gets any personal fouls. I think his reputation has gotten what it deserved based on his play early on, but he's clearly been better in the locker room and with the media in the last 2 seasons.

That said, I do think he would cost too much, and not sure how he is in the 3-4

He could be an outstanding DE in a 3-4, I think, but again, don't think we can afford him.
