Dee Ford

They have a new DC. Spags likes BIG DEs.....think Michael Strahan and Justin Tuck. Ford is undersized and would cost too much for what they want to run so they franchised him in order to at least get something back for him.

I was iffy on the 49ers giving up a 2nd rounder for Ford. Giving up a 3rd is great. Now you can still get Bosa or take Williams or trade down. You can still go WR in the 2nd round to add another weapon.
i think the draft is the way to go to get our wide out. lets say we trade down to the raiders and still pick in the top five or six.. we can still get a fine rusher correct? even if we get ford we need a rusher at number one. agree, i would give the third away in a heartbeat, we usually do crap with our third round picks anyway
If we get ford just take williams at 2 i have a feeling bosa has bust written all over him!!!

It's saying 49ers get Ford plus something else back for the 3rd. Not back = RB

That's how I read it.

Ok this makes sense. Sounds like a great deal. He's going to get paid fat though. People will cry

Why is KC trading Ford?

Phoenix answered part of that above - new D scheme wants bigger DEs.

Also, KC needs cap room for Hill and Mahomes deals, and other coming extensions.

A 2020 2nd round pick is automatically a discounted value as future picks are not valued as highly as picks this year. Also, it is almost assured it will not be a pick in the mid-30s in 2020. More likely something in the 50s.
Just curious, since Ford is OLB would he play SAM in base if they draft Bosa?
2nd rounder....sweet

It's usually worth one round worse than this year. It's like a 2019 3rd. Beautiful!
