-- Hey CP - Where exactly are you with regards to Justin Houston?

I'd rather keep Houston than Ford, especially in this scheme. He's just a far better all-around DE and actually has the size and strength to hold up in it. You pretty much have to play Ford in a wide 9 IMO if you keep him around. I don't know if he could be very effective sliding in much.

+1. Unless it follows a trade I don't get why we want to tag Ford so badly. I'd rather keep the 15m and use it elsewhere with Houston on the books.

Ford absolutely has trade value. Either way he is getting tagged. I think we could get the packers pick at 30 or do a player plus pick like they did for smith.
