I don't believe that it's practical to think about jettisoning Ayers, now that
he is finally beginning to justify his draft status. If Malik comes on, that
means the D-line has become deeper.
Think about the year the Giants spoiled NE's perfect record and beat them
in the Super Bowl. A huge factor in winning the game was the depth in the
D-line. Denver is finally appearing to get that. To me, Ayers' value will not
be affected by the emergence of any other player. The way he can seal the
edge on the running game and how he has progressed as a pass rusher
makes him the type of player I would want to keep. He might ultimately be
a CAP casualty, but that is the only way I could let let him go.
