It's easy, and only takes a few moments.i hope they sign these guys, especially ayers to a long term contract. what a steal2 pretty big pieces IMO they picked up. Ayers with another great play last night with the INT and we got him for nothing. Branch has also been very good upfront stopping the run like he did last night.
These mid season acquisitions this year....A+
I've always rated Ray Horton as a DC but the fact he couldn't find a use for Ayers in Tennessee is mind boggling.
3 sacks (+ 1 wrongly called back), 1 pass defense and 1 INT in 6 games is impressive enough but the fact is he's looked even more impressive out there and all without Chandler Jones attracting the OLs attention.

Casillas, too. Looks to be everything you want in a sub LB. BB has done a terrific job stocking depth mid-season, and I think all three of these guys should be kept around after the season.
Was interesting to see Siliga play more than Branch and both he and Chris Jones on the line and not VW in the 4th qtr. Kinda tells you with BB thinks of Sealver as a rusher on the inside.
Akeem Ayers is just a football player one thing that is notable about him is that he holds the Edge Excellent against the run. No knock but as good as Chandler Jones is as pass rushers he's not a finished product against the run. Ayers is like another Nickovich on the weak side they might not wow you on very play but you will remember the key plays they make. I hope we find a way to extend Ayers he looks like a versatile LB who can play inside and out he looked better than Revis making that Int last night I thought he was a CB. P.s. we all love a healthy Jerod Mayo but its a fact he's not the only Mike LB on this Team. I think the Pats might ask him the restructure they have ask better players to so so in in the past.
With the Dept we have there I love the resting of Big Vince w are going to need him Big in the Playoffs. With our Big athletic DT's stoping the run and collapsing the pocket we are making Teams one dimensional. Its easy to defend then when you know what they are trying to do. BB haven't have thg Good a Defense since TY Law.
