A 2nd in 2020? That's a lot of 2's.

He drafted a third round corner and cut him 2 months later. But yeah go on

A player that lead the league in pressures and forced fumbles and had 14 sacks is now being called a situational pass rusher.


I get wanting to trade him, but you don't have to lie to yourself to justify it.

that's still going to be a top 35 pick. :-)

I'll say that as a positive for Veach. At least the Badger deal is short term. I can't believe the 49ers are giving Ford a 5 year deal with his injury history.

it's still got green font.

Not even this year's 2nd round pick?

WTF?


Wasn't Dorsey so much better at trading than this?

A young pass rusher who was 7th in sacks this year and we can a 3rd round value? Value drops a round each year you have to wait. Couldn't get shit for Houston.

We probably had to trade him to sign our new safety and still have any money left. JFC

Khalik Mack got (2) 1st round picks, 2nd round and a 3rd round pick. Why are we always such a pile of shit? GRrrrrrrrrr

Let’s not forget one could actually stay healthy and was actually feared and game planned against.

This. All this with more anger.

Even at his best Ford wasn't able to take over a game like Houston could in his prime. When was the last time Ford had 4 sacks in a game?

(BTW I'm not a big fan of shaggyshane but of the three of you I was most impressed with you. Quiet and reserved suits you...)

They should package this pick with another and trade for Xavien Howard and extend him, hill and jones. Draft Charles Omenihu, who they’ve shown interest in, and then draft either a second pass rusher or Amani Oruwariye. I think some more LB depth would be great with the 3rd rounder such as Germain Pratt, Terrill Hanks, etc. Luckily this draft is absolutely stacked on the side of the ball we need most.

That gives you a great secondary and a Dline you can scheme a pass rush with. If berry stays on the team then they should look for a mid round safety to learn under berry and takeover starting in 2020.

I guess the main thing is they aren't paying Ford $17m per year for the next 5 years. That is a win for the KC front office. Second rounder next year is a lot better than nothing.
[Reply]

He had 3 sacks and 2 forced fumbles against denver last year. Does that count as taking over a game?
[Reply]

This. Howard/Fuller/Badger/Berry would be a lethal secondary...:-)
[Reply]

Once in 5 years?

I'd say that's more likely Denver having one of the worst lines in the NFL...
[Reply]

That's all true.

At least we aren't stuck with another shitty contract. I guess that is the most we can hope for in KC.
