What's the track record on teams keeping a player after a year on the tag?
I was about to say it's not good but then realized I don't know the answer.
I think if you put Ford on the tag you make him more expensive in the near term and long term. He costs a shit ton to your cap in 2019, and if he plays amazing, he'll now have 2 years of crazy production to jack up his price rather than just one. This is the most affordable he's going to be, right now.
Just pay him.
