Yeah, I thought this was a good quote from the article:
Bill Belichick agrees with this.

Bill Belichick agrees with this.

I agree, with the caveat that he'll pay players when he has to. I think it's a mix of being astute about value, and taking risks that sometimes result in guys being overpaid (Adalius Thomas comes to mind).
Updating because there are now details of Suh's contract. Pretty incredible.
Suh is going to count $6.1M against the Dolphins' salary cap this year. For comparison, Darrelle Revis counted $12M against the Patriots' salary cap last year. But Suh will count $28.6M against the cap in 2016, and all of that is fully guaranteed. Except for a $15,000 workout bonus...ha!
Given the salary cap increases since 2012, though, it does not really seem like a bigger deal than Calvin Johnson's 2012 contract. Then again, how well have the Lions done since then?

Where the lions are screwed is with Stafford. 17 mil cap hit for 2015 and in 16 and 17 a 22 mil cap hit. I don't tthink he is worth it at all

The Shutdown Corner give Miami a B+ in free agency moves largely on acquiring Suh. Nice!

Yeah. He's gonna need to play at a pretty high level to make it seem like he's a bargain. But maybe he can.

I think people will see SUH 2.0 this year. Have a feeling he will be an unstoppable force.
