If only that were his only transgression. He hasn't matured at all.
Though I'd rather sign him and pay him to stay home than have him go to the Titans and Albert Haynesworth us.
This is what I exactly thought when I first heard the deal. Would have liked long term, but could be good for Texans. He’s going to ball and play for that mega deal. I think he came to Houston knowing that he’ll get a lot of pressure from the front 7, lots of opportunities for picks, and he has a chance to be a part of one of the best defenses in the league.MLB super agent Scott Boras labeled this type of deal as a "pillow contract". When a player can't find a long term deal he's satisfied with, he'll take a one year deal to re-establish himself on the market. Doesn't mean that player won't re-up with the same team the following year.
Good breakdown on our newest Texan. Really excited to see how Crennel deploys him as a chess piece in this defense. He could be our Bob Sanders:

Hayden was a weird signing and they still have bortles at qb.Covington? A starter? Our top 4 defensive players coming off injuries? No TEs or OL left worth looking at. Suh is the last available FA that could come in and make a real difference.
The Jags turned their team around last year with the additions of defensive end Calais Campbell, cornerback A.J. Bouye, and safety Barry Church. Now they’ve added the best OL in free agency and added a real weapons in Lewis and Jenkins on offense.

Tits have a visit lined up with Suh. Their DLinewould look like Suh, Jones, Kasey. That’s scary.
Front load his contract and let’s start smashingOffenses. It just makes too much sense.
KJ's first season he looked promising. I don't know why he fell off so fast.Well Matthieu is the honey badger because he is a bad ass. Kevin Johnson better start playing better or I’m gonna label him honey suckle if he continues to suck.

Up this morning on jetski ...
So your friend just killed the badger for no reason?True story on how bad ass a badger is. A buddy of mine was in a tree on a deer stand and a badger comes mossing up. He sticks it with an arrow center mass and in to the ground. The badger pulls the arrow out of the ground and started coming up the tree for him. Had to shoot him two more times to put him down. Now that is the very definition of BAD ASS!!
JJ and JDC would be able to get Suh to check his attitude.I would be intrigued with Suh - but that would mean a lot of money is tight up in our front 5. A one year proof it deal would be great of course - but long term? Might be tough in the future. Plus he is kind of a jerk and it seems like both of his nfl teams weren't really sad to see him go despite his production...
Has doc weighed in on his multiple ACL surgeries?
I think he will flourish in RAC's hyper DB aggressive packages .. Tyrann and Kareem are going to be laying some wood next year.
If the defense is healthy it should return to prominence.
Edit: nice job Gaines .. go get Suh on a 1 yr deal.
Mathieu tore his left LCL and ACL in December 2013. He wasn't the same player in 2014 before returning to form in 2015. That was short lived as he tore his right ACL in Dec 2015 and did not look good in 2016. He doesn't want to be labelled a "slot CB," but that is what he has mostly played. And with the aforementioned knee injuries, I'm not sure how he will stand up to longer-distance outside coverage.
What may bother me more at this point in time is that in Oct 2016, he suffered a shoulder subluxation (partial dislocation) that sidelined him 5 weeks and affected him the rest of the season. That fact is that once a player suffered such an injury, he is very likely to suffer more subluxations and dislocations, until a surgical tightening of the stretched ligaments is performed. Meanwhile, the more shoulder joint displacements he suffers, the more likely he damages his labrum.
All the above may have gone into signing him for a curious 1 year contract
Best thing about this signing is that Mathieu is very likely O'Brien-proof.

Based on JJ Watt being JJ Watt and JD Clowney being JD Clowney. It's hard to be a selfish a$$hole when surrounded by players of that caliber. The Texans are known for having a great locker room.Based on what?
Do they have a proven record of reeling players in?
What makes you think Suh doesn’t think he’s better than them?
One reason they have a great locker room is they have been very selective concerning the players they bring into that locker room.Based on JJ Watt being JJ Watt and JD Clowney being JD Clowney.

You can attribute much of the poor record to injuries to key players, compounded by Rick Smith not adequately addressing the issues on the OL and defensive backfield. So far I am impressed with Gaine. He seems to be addressing team needs much better that Smith. I am eager to see how he closes out free agency and does in the draft. It will take a couple of seasons before we really know how good or bad a GM Gaine actually is, but so far it appears he is headed in the right direction. Like most, I like the splash signings, but considering the number of holes in this roster, Gaine's value conscious approach is probably the wiser path - time will tell.With this selective approach where has it gotten them
4-12

I would say that 4-12 was due to the injury bug much more so than not having players with character issues on the same team. Correlation isn't the same as causation.With this selective approach where has it gotten them

Not to mention Watt, Mercilus, Fuller V, every TE, etc. It was a lot more than just DW4 that got injured.I agree, if Watson hadn't gotten hurt things would have been far different. It isn't surprising that Watson got hurt playing behind that OL.

\Does the swami hat chafe?
Do you really think Watt is going to stay healthy? .
What I really think is pain thresholds are very individual. Neither you nor Doc can judge that for him. He'll walk away at some point, Bob Lilly salute. Until then, calling him out is a fool's errand.
And just because this is who JJ reminds me of:
The Honey Beaver?How bout a buddy of mine walked up to me and said "You see we got the beaver"
Man I cracked up
The Honey Beaver?

did any Texans player tweet for Suh to come here? If Clowney and Watt saw Suh as advantage seems both would be trying to get him on roster.Knowing Watt's situation, health wise, I couldn't imagine him not seeing the positive should Gaine decide to add Suh to the DL. Suh and Clowney on one side certainly might take away the double and triple teams that Watt has dealt with since he arrived on the scene. Adding a player like Suh to this front seven could buy Watt a few more healthy seasons.
the giants definitely don't take on choir boys, and they were 3-13
Just enjoy what you're seeing Progress is being made, but it's going to take a couple of years.
the thing is you want to bring in Suh, but he was a divisive figure in the locker room at Nebraska, he was the samenin Detroit, and he was such a locker room ca never in Miami that they are willing to pay him 22 mil to have him not play for them.
You can sign a player like that when you have the right locker room culture, and are winning regularly. that's why the patriots do well with guys like that, because when the team is winning you can't be a locker room cancer because the rest of the team will shun you. If you are having a down season though that's when players like suh can take over and tear a team apart, it's been proven at numerous stops of his. While I think we are improving it is still a high possibility that we have a mediocre or below average season which could give suh his in to divide the locker room. he has visited the titans and the saints now and left both without a contract
