They were asking for a 2nd I had heard. Does trading for Ford change what they do at the top ofof the draft?

 

[Ricky Roma]

Well this certainly changes things if it turns out to be true.......I still want the same guy at #2, but QW is definitely more in play. Or a trade down....

Doesn't make sense, the Chiefs are trading him because they're switching to a 4-3 scheme. The 49ers operate a 4-3 scheme?

If Bosa is available, i say draft him Ford or no Ford. We're not going to get this kind of opportunity again.

 

[Ricky Roma]

First rumour I've read is that it's Dee Ford and some other comp.....for a third rounder.

New DC Steve Spagnola wants bigger ends, plus the Chiefs are up against the cap wall.

I. Rapoport reports the trade is Dee Ford for a 2020 2nd rounder, pending SF works out a deal with Ford.

I think it's as much the cap wall as any thing else.

this would be a good deal.

 

[Ricky Roma]

this would be a good deal.

It gets better if this is true:

Five years, $87.5M

 

[poewelch84]

If reports are correct the trade has been made for a 2020 2nd rounder and hinges on a new contract. That contract is reported to be 5 years 87.5 million, probably working on the language of the contract.

I'm guessing Ford would play the SAM LB?

 

[poewelch84]

It sounds like Ford is a done deal.

 

[Ricky Roma]

I'm guessing Ford would play the SAM LB?

LEO.

 

[poewelch84]

Also if he does play the SAM LB position that is a lot of money spent on LB position this offseason.

 

[poewelch84]

LEO.

Then they aren't taking Bosa to play the Leo

Put him at big end, like his brother Joey.

Bosa, ST, Buckner, Ford = potentially the best pass rush unit in the NFL.

 

[poewelch84]

Ford is 6'2" and weights 243 pounds I'm not sure that is Leo size?
