JJ is a complete asshat for that contract which totally cost us Frank Clark. What a douche.

April 24, 2019 Ansah (shoulder) drew positive reviews from a shoulder specialist Monday and expects to be fully cleared by mid-August, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

LOL! Did a search for ZIggy Ansah and got this:
Ansah Sold Direct - eBay | Fantastic prices on Ansah!

Good news, but this feels like another TJ Lang experience where Ansah's going to be the most coveted free agent out there, so someone's going to pay stupid money like the Lions did for Lang, and price us out of the market.
Seems to happen every season. So I'm not getting my hopes up.

He had a torn labrum. I had that same injury. Of course when I had it I was 50 and my recovery time would be nowhere near a young guy like Ansah, however, it takes a lot of rehab and confidence to get back in the gym.
Mine is fine now years later, but this is an injury that can't be pushed.

We have a lot of cap $$ for this time of year. I think we have a great shot.

And more than both of the teams that we're supposedly battling for his services (Baltimore and Buffalo). That's before cutting anyone or Doug retiring too.

Seahawks are signing him after May 7th if he passes the physical.
Unless someone else takes the lump on a compensatory pick and gets him first.

Maybe. We've learned the past two years that John and Pete are pretty disciplined when it comes to spending the cap wisely.
We could have afforded to keep Frank, and we didn't because John and Pete had a certain value for him, and he wanted much more than that value.
That's the same way John and Pete approach these free agents. So I don't think we're going to overspend for Ansah just to get him. I'm sure there's a per year value John and Pete think he's worth, and maybe there's a little wiggle room to go higher? But not too high if like I said someone gets crazy, which I think will happen. Seems to always happen with these type of last wave free agents. Teams panic. That's not us.

Do we need Ziggy Ansah now? He's probably not absolutely needed, but wouldn't his addition strongly strengthen the DLine and their ability to get after the QB.
Sure would be nice.

Yep. According to Clayton the Ravens, Bills, Saints and Eagles are all in the mix. That would sting if he signs with NO or Philly.niveky":36zmpoqd said:massari":36zmpoqd said:Wilson liked Huard's tweet

Geez, how much more help do the Saints even need? Having been stuck on the Lions his entire career, playing for a top-end contender would have to be attractive if the price is at least comparable to what he could get elsewhere.
Comp picks are good, but we really need pass rush help, and I'd hate to lose out on the best one left by far to another team that was willing to strike a deal sooner. As much as John and Pete like to accumulate picks, I think they've shown that comp picks aren't the end-all, be-all for them. We didn't even have any in this past draft.

I'd prefer Ziggy on a 2y 25mil deal were he got 18 guarenteed. If he busts we can cut next year with 5.5 dead money if he balls out we get him at $12.5 APY. 45% less than Frank. I'd rather take some risk on a 2 year deal with him.

Since we are not a step away like before teams that are may have a inside track, we will be a leverage team.

Teams that make the playoffs are a step away. Hawks should be better than last year.
Pete & John are going to add a pass rusher. They believe this team is a contender.

There were only 3-4 teams better than Seattle in the NFC last year. Only two that could be argued were significantly better.
If that isnt "a step away" what is?
The Ravens and Saints would have to do some serious work with their cap to sign him. I don't see the Bills as a legit contender unless they offered considerably more than Seattle. The Eagles are probably the biggest threat of signing him, but they can only afford to give him a 1 year deal while offering him a reduced role. We can offer him longer-term security if he wants it, and we represent the best situation for him to put up big numbers.James in PA":13wi1n8z said:
It's possible he signs elsewhere, but we're definitely a front runner for signing him.
