Better Player; Quinn or Ansah

I think right now Ansah is the better player. Hopefully that injury didn't impact his game too much. But Quinn would be great for the depth. Either would be good by me.

A healthy Ansah by a good bit imo.

Quinn was better earlier in his career. Recently, not so much. Ansah was coming off a 12 sack season and got hurt. He was also pretty active in the run game. .

Under those terms I would say Quinn.

Quinn is better because he actually plays. When healthy, Ansah is a beast but he's basically the Armstead of DEs.

Ansah is the better player but is always hurt so...

Quinn has been consistent as a pass rusher since he got to the league

I’m not even sure Ansah can pass a physical or else he’d be signed now by someone I reckon

well that's my red flag with ansah, generally a dude with his pass rush abilities don't become FAs and if they do, aren't on the market for long much less for cheap

but saying it isn't close between the two is hyperbole

I'm sold on Quinn. Hopefully the Saints & Dolphins can get the contract money & compensation straight.

Cook & Quinn would be the last 2 guys that we have to give big money. The rest of free agency would be finding depth.

This would be the most complete team we’ve ever had..I didn’t even think that was possible from last years team especially with our cap situation.

It really is pretty impressive. Assuming we acquire both Cook & Quinn...there won't be many roster spots available & they're all backup roles.

Based on this...OL & defensive back should be main the focus' going forward. Especially OL. Need to fit a returner in here as well.

QB(3)
-Brees
-Bridgewater
-Taysom Hill

RB(3 or 4)
-Kamara
-Murray
-Washington
-???...I hope this ends up being our returner. Martez Carter is an option as well.

FB(1)
-Line

WR(5 or 6)
-Thomas
-Ginn
-Meredith
-Tre'Quan
-Kirkwood
-???...Dez for cheap would be ok imo. We could also use this spot to roster our returner.

TE(3)
-Cook
-Josh Hill
-Arnold or Garrett Griffin

OL(8, 9, or 10)
-Armstead
-Peat
-Easton
-Warford
-Ramczyk
-Tom
-???...Clapp will probably get a roster spot unless he isn't developing well.
-???
-???
-???

ST(3)
-Lutz
-Morstead
-Zach Wood

DT(3 or 4, to start the year)
-Malcolm Brown
-Stallworth
-Mario Edwards
-???...If we keep 4 DT's, the #4 will probably be released after Onyemata returns.
**Rankins probably starts the season on the PUP.
**Onyemata might not have to be on the initial 53 if he's suspended.

DE(4 or 5)
-Jordan
-Davenport
-Quinn
-Hendrickson
-???...I think we just keep 4 if these are the 4.

LB(5 or 6)
-Davis
-Anzalone
-Klein
-Robertson
-Biegel(ST)
-???

CB(6, b/c we need Hardee for ST)
-Lattimore
-Apple
-PRob
-???...need a backup slot guy.
-???...Maybe Crawley if he earns it.
-Hardee(ST)

S(4 or 5)
-M. Williams
-Bell
-???...#3 Safety.
-Banjo(ST)
-???...Maybe JT Gray for ST.
