Ndamukong Suh won't buck slotting system

The initial rumors were that Ndamukong Suh, the second-overall pick by the Detroit Lions, wanted more than the record-setting guaranteed money ($50 million) given to Sam Bradford, the first-overall pick in the 2010 NFL Draft.

Eugene Parker, the agent for Suh, has told ESPN's Chris Mortensen that "Suh's deal will come in less" than Bradford's.

Even so, there is a reasonable chance that Suh will receive more guaranteed money than what Lions quarterback Matthew Stafford received from the team last year ($41.7 million) as the top overall pick in the 2009 NFL Draft, as pointed out by MLive.com's Tom Kowalski.

Last year, Suh had 12 sacks at Nebraska including four in the Big 12 Championship game against Texas.

In addition, he won numerous college football awards, such as the Bronko Nagurski Award, Chuck Bednarik Award, Outland Trophy and Vince Lombardi Award.
