5 Teams That Could Sign Ndamukong Suh If He Hits Free Agency

Despite his antics on the field, Ndamukong Suh is going to have plenty of suitors in free agency this offseason. He's one of the best overall defensive tackles in football, and several teams are going to be willing to shell out a ton of money for the polarizing star. Here are five teams that could realistically sign him if he does opt to leave the Detroit Lions.

The Pittsburgh Steelers are known for their hard-nosed defense, and Suh would seem to be a perfect fit. Even though it's unknown whether or not Pittsburgh would be willing to spend serious cash to bring him in, it makes sense for Suh and the organization.

Owner Jerry Jones is known for his love of new toys to plug into the Dallas Cowboys' lineup. He has plenty of money to give Suh, who might just go to the team that offers him the most money. He also makes a lot of sense for the Cowboys, who are still improving their once-futile defense. He could play in the bright lights in Dallas and give his promising career a boost.

The Cleveland Browns already have a very good defense, and with Suh stuffing the run in the middle, they could be even better. He could really be the finishing touch on the defense so the team could focus on the offensive side of the ball. Should they add Suh and a couple playmakers on offense, the Browns could be very interesting in 2015.

This team once gave Albert Haynesworth a huge contract and he did virtually nothing for them. That wouldn't be the case with Suh, who is firmly in the prime of his career. While they have other areas of need as well, getting a playmaker like Suh on defense would be a very good start.

The New York Giants seem to be the most logical and likely destination for Suh. They can offer him a ton of money, want to bolster the interior defensive line, and he would be able to play for a large market in New York. It's very likely that the Giants view him as the key piece they've been missing on defense, so if they can get that side of the ball shored up, they could be back in the playoffs next season.
