Dee Ford named AFC Defensive Player of the Month
The Chiefs have a defense too.
And Dee Ford is a big part of it. The Chiefs outside linebacker was named AFC defensive player of the month, with six sacks and four forced fumbles in October alone. Ford has eight sacks so far this season, and is playing incredibly well in his contract year. That means he’s about to win a huge pile of money as a free agent soon, in addition to a monthly honor. And with his consistent pressure, the Chiefs may be closer to taking the next step as a team, on the off chance their offense ever has an off day. https://profootballtalk.nbcsports.co...-of-the-month/ |

That's really not that bad of a contract.

So, if you tag him and his back goes out in preseason you're not going to pay him his 15 million he'd be due?

Franchise tag all day. I wouldn't sign him to any type of long-term deal, not a f'ing chance.

No way unless it's structured so he can be cut after two years.

2019 draft is stacked with really good defensive talent. We’d have Speaks, Houston, Tanoh and 3 picks in the first 64 and maybe another 2nd to go with it? Something to consider.

Trade wouldn't be a bad idea but damn, I hate getting rid of pass rushers. Especially in today's NFL, they're just so damn important.
I wouldn't be upset signing him long term or tagging him. I don't think you can count on Speaks yet and especially not Tanoh. They don't seem to play him much anyway. |

It’s not really going to matter because teams like the Raiders and the Jets are going to have a metric shit ton of cap room and will have a need for a pass rusher. Someone is going to give him a $100 million dollar contract.

definitely tag him. And listen to trade offers, but it'd have to be a #1

Exactly. There's no way the Chiefs should be trying to pay him like that. Let him go.
