Ziggy Ansah is an explosive athlete with uncapped potential. He's a native of Ghana, and didn't start playing football until his sophomore year of college (was previously a track sprinter). He's got a great burst off the edge, and actually seems to be even quicker when coming out of a two-point stance. At 270 pounds, he's got great strength. His technique is very, very raw for the obvious reasons, but can be improved. Overall, Ansah is a great story, and we'll be seeing a lot of him on ESPN in the lead up to the draft where I project him as a late first round pick with tremendous upside.

Ansah has very little football experience, but has a HUGE upside. The kid has all the tools i belive to be a perenial pro bowl DE. I also think Ansah can play several positions along the D-Line, and maybe even 3-4 OLB. Ansah is very physical is scary to think about how good he can be.
