Dee Ford has missed way more time in his football career. It’s not the same.
The major injury was the one that sidelined him for pretty much his entire rookie season. He battled enough small injuries in college that it was mentioned on scouting reports and dropped him a full round grade.
You don't get to say "if it weren't for the injuries" on a guy where injuries were one of the biggest concerns coming out of college. [Reply]
He isn’t better than thorn but he is a solid player and under control for cheap. If it wasn’t for injury you could have seen that he is a good player. The chiefs likely need to add a young player in a deal involving picks. I do not believe they can match what the ravens and eagles would be willing to give in draft comp
He's a 4th round draft pick that hasn't done shit in the league and was never a premiere player coming out of college.
Injury concerns aside (he's always been banged up), players like that have no trade value. He's more valuable as a special teamer in KC than what you'd fetch in a trade.
Reggie Ragland might have more trade value, and that's not to say Ragland is worth anything. [Reply]

He was banged up yet again this training camp too. [Reply]
The only way I see it happening now is if he tells his agent to proceed with the trade because he doesn't want to be there. It would probably require him threatening to hold out.
Damnit. I really thought it was gonna happen. [Reply]

Mahomes and Watkins smoked his ass week 1. Wtf you scared of him for? [Reply]
