Then just sign him. Anything less than a Super Bowl berth in 2019 is a failure.
If they HAVE to keep Ford, give him a deal, make the 2019 cap hit low, sign some free agents, and worry about 2020 after winning the Super Bowl. |

We can probably pay both Ford and Houston by cutting Berry.
He is my choice to cut instead of Ford and Houston. Of course, a contract adjustment on Houston also helps. But Houston is perfect for our new defense and will finally get to rush the passer and set the edge, rather than dropping back in coverage half (or more) of the time.

Well, the tag makes sense to see how Ford looks in the new defense, and if it makes his run liability even more of a liability.

Houston has never in his entire career been in coverage more than 25% of snaps. |

This will be another bad move by Veach. Ford is not worth 15 mil at all.
One guy can't do it all. He had zero stats in the big game and he is too damn stupid to line up right.

You have two options: Option A: cut Houston, save money, franchise Ford and take a 3rd rd comp later on. Option B: Keep Houston (hopefully at a restructured rate) for one more year, trade Ford for a 1st or 2nd rd pick in the draft in 2 months, then cut Houston in 2020 to save $17.5 million to only $1.5 million in dead money. I’ve wanted to keep Ford, but I’d be lying if I wouldn’t take option B after looking at the bigger picture.

Houston only fits as a RDE, same as Ford. He's not a SAM unless you want to see him in coverage more than not. 4-3 linebackers cover more than rush. |
