Free agency has not started yet, but there is already a lot of speculation about the fate of the biggest name that will be available on the market. Ndamukong Suh will have his choice of several teams to play for in 2015, and it remains to be seen whether he will chase the biggest payday or if he will choose to sign with a contender.

Detroit fans are already making their feelings about Suh known, and it appears that they want him back with the team. The Lions did not allow Suh to hit free agency because they did not want him around. They were simply unable to get a contract extension worked out, and they did not have the cap space to franchise tag the star defensive lineman.
According to ESPN, an unnamed group of investors has started buying billboards around Detroit in an effort to convince Suh to re-sign with the only team that he has played for so far in his NFL career.

The group put up the billboards through Outfront Media.
"A real quick thing started," Bob Brown, a sales representative for Outfront said. "They wanted to take advantage of the controversy."
Several teams are expected to be involved in bidding for Suh's services once free agency opens. The list already includes Oakland, Jacksonville, Buffalo, Cleveland, Miami, Indianapolis, and both New York teams.
There are other teams, such as Philadelphia, that have the cap room to chase Suh, although they have not yet indicated whether they will be doing so.
