Robert Ayers PFF from last season. 5th best pass rush grade and 8th overall

One of the worst secondarys in football too. Giants fans say he's pretty versatile and can play all across the line or standing up.
Quote:Give him a 2 year deal.


Hell, give him a 6 year deal, who cares?
Quote:Ayers would be a good signing, not a "huge" signing like Gipson, Ivory and Jackson but a good stopgap and would be a big upgrade over Branch and Clemons.


Yep. I've been saying this for weeks now.

Also playing in a division with good offensive lines, Dallas has a dominant line, Phily's line can be dominant at times, at Washington has a very good line as well. He'll find things much easier against the Colts, Texans, and Titans
Ayers, Fowler, and another prospect (Spence or McCalister) would be fine by me.
I think they'd offer Ayers a 4 year deal, but one that we can easily cut him after year 2 if needed.

Myles Jack in rd 1

 

Spence in rd 2

Yea the "length" of the contract is insignificant, all about the guaranteed $
@charlesrobinson I think DE Robert Ayers gets done with #Jaguars.
This would be a nice sign if successful
I'll admit I slept on Ayers coming into the FA period. I knew he put up nice numbers but saw a ton of tweets that said his best rushes came as an interior rusher...which we obviously have a glut of.

 

Those vines of his sacks show some pretty darn solid outside speed too, though. Sounds like a great guy to help mentor Fowler.

This
So, Ayers and Fowler basically. They're going to really have to draft this spot heavy in the draft. One old guy and one young guy. We need way more than that, obviously, but Ayers would be a nice consolation price from what's his name.

Grab Spence late first or with our second, maybe grab what's his name from GB. We'll be fine
Quote:I'm not saying we don't sign him. I'm saying I don't get the excitement for a guy who will be over 30 when the season is underway and could be looking for a final payday. I'm not against it. It seems like something we have to do more than something to be thrilled about.
He isn't as big of a signing as Gipson or Malik. He isn't a guy we plan to even start, Fowler is the man at LEO. He is very good depth and a guy that could have had the most sacks on our d-line last year. That's improvement. You need good depth. As a #2 LEO and rotation DL that can get pressure, he'd be a fantastic add. Check out his tape, he is a very solid pass rusher. Fits the LEO and 3T very well as solid depth that actually can rush the passer, unlike what we've had here outside of Marks and Odrick.
What would the lineup look like in obvious passing situations?

 

Ayers, Odrick, Marks, Fowler?  That could be fun!

Ayers accounts for better rotation at LEO than we saw from Clem or windmill-boy, so I'm all for it.


I'm sure we'll see another edge type selected before the fourth round as well.


I seriously like the way things are shaping up.


Real talk take:

The offense is a guard or center away from playoff caliber, and the defense is three pieces away from not sucking so bad that they prevent it from happening.

That's a nasty pass rush, imagine a freak like Myles Jack or Jalen Ramsey blitzing off the edge, mercy.

Woahhh need we Malik in there man. 3rd and 9? I'm going with Fowler, Jackson, Davis, Ayers!
