He's showed consistent production. Really wild to me that this board would rather have Ronald Darby than Dee Ford.
Honestly mind blowing.

I don't want either one of them.
You can't just say "he was hurt in 2017" and gloss over the fact that he's been hurt consistently going all the way back to college. He's had back surgery twice - he's had a spinal discectomy to remove bulging discs from his back. His back is not ever going to be the same. It might not hurt but he's actually missing tissue between the vertebrae that absorbs shock. Putting his hand in the dirt and engaging offensive linemen up close might actually re-aggravate it.
It's not worth the risk, especially not at the amount of money that got thrown around.
