At any rate, if Houston's agent is saying they won't restructure, then he's just gone period. You can't pay him $21 million. Ford on the tag is real expensive when he's such a liability against the run, but so be it. |

Houston’s annual contract average is just over $16.8 million, but his cap number is over $21 million for this season. Joel Segal is probably confident he can get Houston a 2-3 year deal at $17 million plus instead of restructuring with KC. The Chiefs will inevitably eat some dead money but Houston’s cut savings are the most realistic for freeing up money for this FA period. If Berry is cut post June 1st, his cap savings can be rolled and used to offset extensions for the likes of Hill/Jones.
Ford on the tag is not the worst thing for KC. No long term commitment, and he has to play well again to get a long term deal. He gets a one year trial in the 4-3, and I anticipate the Chiefs to add depth to the pass rush either in the draft or FA to hedge against Ford moving into 2020. |

Ford on the tag makes sense, pair it with a DE/Edge early in the draft, and you're in decent shape at DE. Speaks I think is a fine LDE, he's built for it and has a year's experience. Kpass is a wildcard but may surprise. |

asking seriously. If there's a legit source I'm interested. I just don't assume some guy on an internet bulletin board knows anything more than I do. But if that quote is from a reputable source, I'll take it.

Not going to pass a physical? He played in the AFCCG and has not opted for surgery to this point.

He passed a physical to play in the last game and didn't leave the game with an injury. Not our fault if he can't pass now
