You know what's kind of a crazy stat I saw that made me a little nervous about Ziggy?
PFF credited Ziggy with 37 total pressures last year....Solomon Thomas had 30.
Although to be fair he had like 60-70 less snaps than Sully and Myles Garrett had the same amount with similar snaps.
I do have a soft spot for Quinn from the 2011 draft and I think his career is on the upswing again but I'd still take Ziggy just because i think we can just let him do his thing off the right side.
yeah I heard that yesterday...like you said they forget to mention that he had less pass snaps. They also didn't talk about that team around him, they have no other pass rusher (inside or edge) for teams to game plan for. Honestly he hasn't had much his whole career in Detroit.
I would imagine those pressure #s would go up with Buck/Solly/AA in the fold.
Quinn is who I wanted the Niners to draft that yr (over Smith)...I can't agree with you that his career is on the upswing with all those concussions he had. He's a backup plan IMO, if they even move on from him. He also just never seemed to look the same after that back surgery either.
Both have injury issues, both would be upgrades.
