Doesn't really fit the 49ers, probably could get him for a good value. He'd be a tackle for us, not an end, right? 3 tech? Probably will depend on if we go with Oliver or Wilkins at 9. If not, and we go say O-line, I could see us making a move for Thomas. I loved him coming out. I thought Michael Sam was the only player who came out.?
Mike in Syracuse Posted March 14, 2019 Posted March 14, 2019 (edited) I'm not saying the airport story it true or false but I can share a personal anecdote. I've met dozens of Bills players over the years while travelling. The rudest I've ever met was Bruce Smith. It's also meaningless. These guys have up and down days like everyone.

Exactly, the guys from all reports took a West coast flight across the country to visit today. I get Bills fans are one of the best things about joining the Bills outside of the paycheck, but not everyone wants to be bombarded with excited fans when they first get into town or off a flight. I know I am agitated after long plane or car rides so even so I cant blame the guy. 3
Frez Posted March 14, 2019 Posted March 14, 2019 Could the #Bills sign Ziggy Ansah as early as today? A report says he's in Orchard Park & BUF might try to get him to sign on the dotted line before he visits the #Saints:

SCBills Posted March 14, 2019 Posted March 14, 2019 Yea, we have money and we have a top end defense for him to play on. We’re his first visit for a reason. If he signs, it will be done today. If he leaves, I think we’re going another route.

Not everyone is a people person and I think sometimes fans forget that. For every player that will sign a million autographs and drop everything, there's another who just really doesn't like socializing and would prefer not to be bothered (just like the rest of us.) I get it.
ExWNYer Posted March 14, 2019 Posted March 14, 2019 Per Chris Brown a few minutes ago, Ziggy is still visiting with the Bills but he has no word on whether Ansah will sign.He did confirm that he has not left so there appears to be mutual interest on both sides. 1 3
John from Riverside Posted March 14, 2019 Posted March 14, 2019 So to recap on this kid Down year last year - hurt 12 sacks the year prior 2 years in the league so a young player?

Also expect that he signs today, or is gone and gos elsewhere. Got the $$$ to do it.

napmaster Posted March 14, 2019 Posted March 14, 2019 Saints opened up cap space. http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap3000001022586/article/saints-restructure-brees-contract-to-open-cap-space Now they have some room to make him an offer. Not much, but some. Putting faith in the medical staff on this one.
P51 Posted March 14, 2019 Posted March 14, 2019 There were questions regarding his age when he was drafted, hasnt had a healthy full season since 2015. He'll be 30 in May, production is there when healthy. http://www.nfl.com/player/ezekielansah/2539931/careerstats
Magox Posted March 14, 2019 Posted March 14, 2019 I wouldn't expect him to sign until after he's met up with the Saints.
