What's Ansah even worth at this point. Can't stay healthy, and he's only productive against the worst tackles in the league. I don't think anybody is going to overpay for him honestly.

Some team will overpay. He won't get 17+MILLY but he'll definitely get overpaid. I can't wait til he's gone...

Depending on the market I’m guessing he’ll be slightly overpaid for a one year contract, hopefully the Lions aren’t the ones to do it.

I was thinking the same thing. A one yr prove it deal. Indy or Buffalo maybe

 

[kdp1980]

Skip the article, look at the team ranking showing the percentage of qb pressures. Lions ranked 30th. I want pass rushers in the first 2 rounds, even if we add somebody in fa. The secondary can wait.

When he referred to his body as a delicate flower pre draft kinda sticks out

I remember the MNF game @ NYG pretty vividly. We watched from the hotel room while we vacationed in Myrtle Beach. He had a few sacks, several tackles, and the win put us at 2-0. Things were really looking up. A fucking ROAD win on MNF in a game that mattered.

Went on to finish a stellar 7-9, winning 3 of our last 4 meaningless games to drop out of top 10 draft position. Very similar to how this season is turning out.

Personally I am happy to see him moved to IR. Last thing I wanted to see happen was him have a couple strong games at the end of the year and we resign him.

Me too. Him getting 12 sacks last year was blashemy. Guy was an absolute ghost for pretty much 10 games, and feasted against 3 really lousy LT's

[everyoneneedsasmil]

I think we'd all be fine with bringing back Ansah so long as we were paying him for the quarter of a season of quality play he actually produces, rather than superstar money. Our new guy is making ~18, right? So I'd give Ansah 4.5 for a year.
