As he should IF he has plans to get any 1st string snaps on D this year. The big difference I see between Ford and Nicholas besides their motors of which Ford's is barely 'idling' imo compared to 'Big Dadi" who plays in 6th gear on every play it appears is 'instinct'. Ford has never shown any anticipation in his play whatsoever as opposed to 'Big Dadi' who plays like a 'blood hound' heading everything off at the pass.

Khalil Mack got 5 sacks against Denver's shit RT last year. So those also do not count if we're being consistent, correct?
10 sack season then. Nothing special. He must be overrated. |

yea but Khalil Mack actually knows how to stop the run to go with his sacks. From day 1 really. So even if he got 5 sacks in one game, he's not going to get run over in the other games he doesn't get any pass rush like Ford does.

Plus, didn't you learn your lesson from Sean Smith and Eric Fisher? Guys get better all of the time and shut you up, but continue acting like Ford's a lost cause. |

Moses only played 55 snaps last year so he hasn't exactly had a chance to show anything. This year should be the year to mix him in.

The Ford saga isn't going to resolve itself over the course of a few measly preseason games.
For one thing, his supposed most valuable attribute is going to be neutered running basic schemes. It's fair criticism of the guy for not being fundamentally sound. DT was a target of offenses running right at him, couldn't drop into coverage worth a lick, often his splits left major gap issues, and routinely ran around coverage so wide or deep he took himself out of plays. Gunther had to scheme around him with a his Falcon position to basically give Derrick free reign 90% of the time to simply be a rush end. Not to shit on Thomas, because Ford hasn't sniffed being remotely as dangerous on the edge or earned the right to just pin his ears back and unleashed to simply attack. If the kid can't handle the responsibility of being an every down player and isn't going to give you at minimum 15+ sacks, cut your losses and move on. He's still on a rookie contract, so the cap implications are at least in your favor. You've got this season to see how it works out or not. This time last year, the Fisher fan club probably consisted of Eric and his parents, and even his dad was on the fence about if he'd renew his membership.

Player X is drafted in first round. Player X can't get on the field for a year and a half. Player X is forced into action due to injury. Player X has five games, playing every snap, and does jack shit. Player X has one good game, gets three sacks against the worst OL in football. Player X clearly is a good player and definitely not a bust. ![]() |
