elijah Posted May 8, 2019 Share Posted May 8, 2019 Wording of that tweet makes it sound like it’s all but done. Not a big loss honestly, would’ve been nice depth but Ansah doesn’t seem to have the talent he once had. Would’ve been a slight upgrade, but not the game changer that some members of this board seem to think he is. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canadian Bills Fan Posted May 8, 2019 Share Posted May 8, 2019 I never really thought we would sign him and Im fine with that. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Just Joshin' Posted May 8, 2019 Share Posted May 8, 2019 Not in love with idea of Ziggy. He is potentially older than advertised and not sure he will be a sack machine post injury. At team safe price would be interested but appears not likely. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m shocked he didn’t quit his job and crawl into a black hole somewhere. He probably swore vengeance to the Bills over the entire thing.

K-9 Posted May 8, 2019 Share Posted May 8, 2019 Oh man. This is a SERIOUS bad look for the Bills if he goes to Seattle. A stain on McBeane and the entire “process.” Scott Law told me. 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Logic Posted May 8, 2019 Share Posted May 8, 2019 Makes sense. Seahawks have a greater need than Bills, and Ziggy will get more playing time there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BringBackFergy Posted May 8, 2019 Share Posted May 8, 2019 We already have one DE with chronic injuries (Murphy)...don't make the same mistake twice Beaner. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HailMary Posted May 8, 2019 Share Posted May 8, 2019 Of the teams interested in him, SEA and BUF have the room to max out a one-year prove it deal for $17M which is what he'll be looking for (and played on a tag LY). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirby Jackson Posted May 8, 2019 Share Posted May 8, 2019 Ansah ALWAYS has to be a “guy at the right price.” He’s also a weird fit here because he really SHOULD be on a 1 year “prove-it” deal. The Bills are fine at DE this year (obviously he’d make them better). It’s 2020 where they potentially have a big hole. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dpberr Posted May 8, 2019 Share Posted May 8, 2019 This Bills FO isn't overpaying for a player with a wonky shoulder. Recovering from shoulder surgery is tough for the average person who doesn't deliberatly drive it into large people for a living. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GreggTX Posted May 8, 2019 Share Posted May 8, 2019 (edited) Many posters are overrating Ansah's value. His skills have diminished considerably. He' s Trent Murphy 2.0. Let someone else overpay him and eat his dead money next year. We need top tier DE's if we're going to get to the playoffs because we have a 3rd tier QB. I'm thinking we'll trade for 1 and draft another next year and/or resign Hughes if the terms are right. 34 minutes ago, wppete said: 90 is both his jersey # and his Madden rating.

JoeF Posted May 8, 2019 Share Posted May 8, 2019 I'd rather give Hughes a 2 or 3-year extension now rather than wait. I have a feeling Hughes is going to have a monster year if the Bills generate more interior pressure Ian R...will always be saddled with the Antonio Brown "Breaking News" in my book.. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What you say makes sense. Beane also seems to be very astute about not setting himself (the team) up to carry a bunch of dead money. Seattle may be more willing to put guaranteed money on the table against a longer contract. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billsfan89 Posted May 8, 2019 Share Posted May 8, 2019 The Bills were brining him in to be a part of a rotation anyway, I would have liked him on a one year deal it would have added nice depth but its not a huge loss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

frostbitmic Posted May 8, 2019 Share Posted May 8, 2019 IMO, I thought Shaq Lawson improved quite a bit last year. If he takes his game up another step this year, he could be really good. Murphy might even be semi healthy this year too. I've also been a fan of Eddie Yarborough and that other guy they signed from the Lions (Harold ?) could be in the picture this year too. Ziggy would be cool but I'm not sure he's much better than what we have Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For the right deal it would have been nice IMO, but not if we had to get carried away. Let Seattle overpay if they are desperate after trading away their stud.
