2019 Free agency Thread
We don't really have one of these yet, so figured we could use this as a place to discuss potential free agent acquisitions and what we would like to look for them to bring in.
If any of you guys are interested, heres a good place to do some research. https://overthecap.com/ |

It’s gonna be very interesting to see how much of an impact Daly has on Ford and Nones ability to stop the run.
IMHO Cords problems in that area of his game are a far bigger concern than his injury history...especially if he can continue to build his core strength which will make his back stronger and vice versa. |

His history isn't great but if he stays healthy in '19 without the Chiefs and they don't win the SB because of pass rush limitations, letting him go will be remembered terribly. |

Well, tag and keep Ford, cut Houston is probably what's going down.
We'll need to draft a pass rusher early along with CB's and S's. |

Fords injury issues are NORMAL for a 5 year NFL player. In this league, injuries are unavoidable. |

I already told you - he could have demonstrated at some point in his entire career of organized football that he could stay healthy two years in a row. He's NEVER played a full, productive season two years in a row. EVER. And by tagging him and keeping him, they're counting on him to do EXACTLY THAT. They're asking him to do something he's never done. Seems reasonable. SMH

It's all about probability. If they tag him and keep him, they have no money. They're going to be relying on the draft mostly to upgrade the secondary. There's two probable outcomes there - he gets hurt and the season goes up in flames because he was their big spend or he balls out like he did last year and they still lose because the secondary isn't good enough. Either way, 2019 is yet another lost season and the window on Mahomes' rookie contract is nearly closed with nothing to show for it. |

Just a matter of different trains of thought I suppose. I don't think they can win the SB without Ford or Houston both in 2019. Some think they can.
I'd rather pay Ford's tag than $21M for Houston. Some feel differently. |

I get all the arguments against it being Ford. Injury history, poor run defender. I'd probably rather have Houston but that may be just sentimental. He's better all around, but also an injury problem. It's gotta be one. Ford is cheaper. Draft his replacement and let him walk next year. |

After last season with Berry, I just can't fathom putting that much of the cap into either of them. Did we learn nothing at all?

By tagging Ford, they're all in on him for 2019. That's not a risk I would be willing to take, but then again, who am I? |
