Ndamukong Suh wants to stay in Tampa Bay and the Buccaneers want him to stay, as well.

So what’s the problem? Well, there’s the issue of money.

Suh made $9.25 million on a one-year contract last season with Tampa Bay and will likely be looking for a raise this season. There have been several organizations reportedly interested in Suh and some analysts have even speculated that he could receive a contract upwards of $13 million for another season.

The Buccaneers are going to be tasked with re-signing Shaquil Barrett, Jason Pierre-Paul, filling out a roster and finding out what to do with the quarterback situation- which will likely cost upwards of $20 million.

Next. Why the Bucs should sell-out to signing Tom Brady. dark

If Suh isn’t willing to take a pay cut of some kind, the Buccaneers may have no other choice than to look elsewhere to stay under the cap and make the most of their assets.
