But we've also seen him get 13 and be on that track in seasons before. Rushing the passer isn't an issue with him. We had this conversation in regards to Randy Gregory when someone was calling him a 12 sack per season guy or something. That's getting into damn elite territory. If a guy can consistently get 8-10, that's pretty ****ing good and hard to find. |

Also if we're going off consistent seasons etc, he's averaged 13.5 or something games played per season in the NFL.

They're going to tie up 15+ million of the cap in a guy that has never demonstrated that he can do it. |

His "good" games are FAR less numerous than his non-existent ones. Why are people propping this guy up? If he wouldn't have had a good season this year, he would have been talked about around here like Eric Fisher and let's face it, Eric Fisher has been FAR more productive than Dee Ford. It's pure freaking Derrick Thomas nostalgia. It's completely overridden any sense of reason. |

Well you're completely ignoring the fact that it took him some time to get good so we all have our agendas I guess.

He's never been fully healthy and people are apparently just willing to ignore that fact. As for agendas, the only agenda I have is wanting the Chiefs to win a Super Bowl. I don't think they can do that tying up $15+ million of the cap in guys that can't stay healthy. Call me crazy. I mean Eric Berry is the most popular guy on Chiefsplanet, amirite? |

You are going nuts in multiple threads about Dee Ford. Take a break. He's tagged. What are you trying to accomplish

Sacks come in bunches for a lot of these guys. I'm always a little more interested in pressures and such anyway, disruption is disruption. The reason people are high on him is that he was one of the most disruptive players in the league this last season. Not every player develops on a straight up curve like we'd hope, so it is what it is. I wouldn't pay him a long term deal because of the age and the injuries. But if I can get another season like last season for 15 mil, i'll roll the dice and hope he can repeat it. |

He literally has one healthy season in his entire career. I simply don't understand how that's worth the risk. Like I said previously, there are fantasy services that track and analyze injuries and injury probabilities. They rate Dee Ford as guy that is slightly more than 50% likely to miss 2-4 games in 2019. That's not risky, that's playing Russian roulette with the season. |

Secondly, one thing I think you're overlooking a bit is just how "injured" he has been or would have to be to miss a game. Since he's going to be playing for a big deal again, I would imagine he'd be a little more likely to play thru some things where as he hasnt' in the past. |
