Broyles cut

Operative word: COULD have a better year.

Watching players like OBJ, Donald, Martin, Mosley all go on to have incredible seasons in year 1 makes it more frustrating.

Here's what I pulled out of that last post: "weren't for sure, maybe, maybe." Lots and lots of speculative stuff. What I can tell you for sure is that Ebron sucked, and multiple picks after him would have been better options.

It's not frustrating. We went 11-5. Ebron was a rookie TE in a complex offense and the 3rd/4th target. If he stinks this year, then start with frustration. And don't play the hindsight game. It's stupid.

650 yards and 5 TDS would be nice as the 3rd option. More if Calvin or Tate get hurt.
 
We needed a TE. Ebron BPA over OBJ and Fuller and Dennard. Maybe Lewan too.

Suh and Fairley weren't for sure gone in May 2014. Plus we ended up trading for Ngata. Maybe we don't make that Ngata trade if we have Donald. Maybe Donald sucks when he is the main focus unlike with Robert Quinn.

maybe the rest of the Lion's DL will take a step back because the focus will be taken off of Suh.
 
We have Ngata and Ansah. Two beasts.

Walker and Jones and the backups will capitalize.

He might be a beast some day...but he hasn't done it yet. Hell, he didn't even lead the team in sacks last year when Suh was getting double teamed....Suh did!

You dummy. Ansah was a beast. Incredible pass rush productivity in 2014. Top 5 in the league for DEs actually. And Ansah is great againt the run too. Ansah is clearly a beast.

The fact that you don't think he is shows how little you know about football. Only looking at sacks. You are a joke.

your definition of a beast is not mine. A beast is someone who is great. He is not great yet...he had the benefit of lining up next to Suh...who was a beast.

BTW...Ansah was 32nd in the league in QB hurries.

You are just a homer.

Ansah was top 5 in pressure per snap. And he played a ton of snaps.

And you are wrong. He was 15th in hurries for all DEs and 2nd in QB hits (behind only Watt). He was a top 5 productive DE. And 9th in sacks.

Ansah is clearly a beast. You are a moron if you think otherwise.

32nd in the league for all players, not just DEs, which means he was behind some DTs and LBs.

He was top 5 in all DEs in pass rush productivity. Ansah had 20 sacks and had a good number of hurries. Ansah was a beast in both pass rush and run defense.

Ansah is a great player. 20 QB hits. Great job.

He had 20 sacks...is that one of your made up stats? Like true wins and true INTs?

LOL
 
7.5 sacks, 20 hits and 32 QB hurries. That is the definition of a beast.
Incredible against the run too.

Ansah is a top 5 DE in the league.
 
I clearly said 20 hits.

Ansah top 5 in pass rush productivty. Beast in run defense

You are underrating Ansah. I'm not surprised. I'm 95% sure you are blind.
 
Not sure he's top 5 at this point but he's been pretty good. Curious what happens now that Suh isn't here. As much as we can all like Ngata, he's no Suh.

Ngata commands doubles. And Ansah did beat many doubles last year. Ansah will be a beast again. I like how they moved him around this pre-season. He'll face some RTs this year too. Can't wait for that.
 
Lions have a beter defensive line in 2015 than 2014. Top 5 defense incoming. Can't wait.
