"Ziggy should flourish playing alongside Ndamukong Suh and Nick Fairley. ... where he shouldn't see very many double teams if Lions DTs Ndamukong Suh and Nick Fairley continue to crush pockets"
last offseason, Sports Illustrated ranked the NFL Offseason Fashion Trends. Hipster Glasses came in at #1: "The nerdy look is back! Whether it was at the combine (Da'Quan Bowers), the draft (Nick Fairley) or an introductory press conference (Von Miller), NFL rookies showed there's never a wrong time to break out the black-framed spectacles." looks like Ziggy is continuing the fad. look how big he is compared to Barry Sanders:
the Detroit News says the Lions had 4 players arrested last offseason and 2 players arrested so far this offseason (DE Lewis, S Spievey) Fairley and Suh were among the two people arrested last offseason. Suh got some traffic tickets (including going 91mph in a 55mph zone in a BMW). Fairley was arrested by the Alabama State Troopers for DWI, speeding (Cadillac Escalade), and having an open container of alcohol in the SUV. in another incident not long after that Fairley was charged with possession of marijuana, but those charges were dropped the Detroit coach: "Honestly, I think it would be best for every single player in the NFL to have a driver," Jim Schwartz said
Sports agent and former NFL Pro Scouting Director Mike McCartney: "With Suh, Fairley and Ansah, Lions DE Jason Jones will never get double-teamed. That excites me!" Detroit native DE Jason Jones' NFL stats 2012 -- 3.0 sacks, 4 passes broken up (reserve for Seahawks) 2011 -- 3.0 sacks, 5 passes broken up (starter for Titans) 2010 -- 3.5 sacks, 3 passes broken up (starter for Titans) 2009 -- 4.0 sacks, 5 passes broken up (reserve for Titans) 2008 -- 5.0 sacks, 2 passes broken up (reserve for Titans) another DE that stands to benefit is Ronnell Lewis, who was taken in the Top150 of last year's draft problem is the Lions really don't have any meaningful depth other than that at DE or DT
