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/ |

He's had multiple knee injuries AND back injuries. What makes you think he'll be able to play like 2018 again in 2019 considering he's literally never done it? |

I think it's just as easily said the other way around. What makes people think he's going to duplicate this season? |

I don't know about all the holes at this point either, with the scheme change and all.
They're at the point in team building where they do need to fill a hole or two, but more importantly they need to just keep stocking positions with talent via the draft and let the rest fall where it may. |

That makes trading Ford for picks all that much more appealing. The more picks you have, the better chance you have of hitting on cheap talent. Free agency simply isn't going to get any better - desperate teams with lots of money are going to ruin it for teams like the Chiefs that need complimentary pieces. |

Don't think we're trading Ford.

But luckily, that's never been where the value is. At best on those big deals, you're hoping to break even. People won't like it, but where you've gotta hit is guys that didn't fit elsewhere or whatever and you can figure out how to fit them in with you for cheaper. Like Sean Smith etc. So that's good for the Chiefs in that they're just going to be up against the cap for a while. Good teams are and they're a really good team. |

So for everybody in favor of keeping Ford, are you putting the ER tag on him to prevent him from negotiating with other teams?

He's literally never strung together healthy seasons two years in a row. But we're going to count on him doing it now, 6 years into his career.

Houston is sandbagging. He had 4 less sacks and the same number of FF as Dee Ford over the last half of the season, despite playing in 2 less games.
