With plenty of salary cap space available, the Dolphins have been considered a favorite bidder in addition to the Indianapolis Colts and Oakland Raiders, who were hoping to play host to Suh next week. It appears that meeting won't happen.
Suh, 28, was selected by Detroit with the second overall pick of the 2010 NFL Draft. He had 36 sacks in five seasons there, including 8.5 last season. Suh became one of the most sought-after free agents after the Lions declined to franchise tag him at the cost of $26.9 million.
