Ezekiel "Ziggy" Ansah

6'6, 270lbs BYU

Ansah is a big dude! He's raw but looks like he can become a force in the next level. He's been compared to Jason Pierre-Paul because JPP was raw also when he was in the draft back in 2010. he was recruited to BYU to become a track runner in the 200 meter so he has great speed for size. Ziggy can play in any scheme and anywhere on the defensive line. In a 4-3 he can play DE or DT also in a 3-4 he Nose, DE, and can stand up rush of the edge because of his speed. Those are the things that he did at BYU. When he stands up and rushes the QB he reminds me of a bigger version of Aldon Smith of the 49ers with the twists and stunts. Since we run a 4-3 for now he will be a good pick. If we hire a guy that runs a 3-4 like Vic Fangio for Head Coach, Ansah will still be a good pick.
