Veach is going to get hustled, but I dont think he has much choice but to pay him.

Agree. But teams will overbid for an edge rusher. Chiefs will have some competition.

Good edge rushers are a rare commodity. Pay the man

Tag him, make sure he continues production & stays healthy before paying him. Hasn't done jack the last 4 years, then shows up (so far). Unless Houston and Berry restructure big time, I'd guess they would definitely tag (prob around 15m for next year).

I dunno. He's been great rushing the passer but he's still a liability against the run. At least he's running towards people these days. I'd guess he's still going to command at least 15 per and that means KC has a tough decision going forward. One thing with Ford is that he's that type of pass rusher the NFL needs if they want to get pressure off the edge because QBs get the ball out so fast. The real place teams are going to start focusing money and attention is on the Aaron Donald types, quick guys that can create pressure up the middle. It takes about 8 less steps to get to the QB from the inside than the outside. Re-signing Ford, in my opinion, really comes down to what the Chiefs want to be as a defense going forward. If they stick with a 3-4, then I think re-signing or at least tagging Ford is a solid plan. If they switch to a 4-3, then they should probably let him walk unless they would want him to be a Leo in a 4-3 Under front like Seattle employs.

The talent has always, always been there. I was never down on Ford.
Health, of course, is and has been the issue. And a lot of us knew that Ford was due for a big year. Contract year, duh.

Yup. I foresee a tag coming. Chiefs have no choice, really. Too good to release, injury concerns remain. And honestly, if Ford puts together another good season (assuming he finishes this season at the same pace) then Ford will be lined up for an even bigger payday.

Franchise tag as long as you possibly can - two years if you can. THen let him walk. Don't pay people unless they are 24-25 or a Quarterback.
