    Why the hell aren't the Steelers in the convo for Dee Ford?!?!?

    We have too many holes to fill with rookies in the draft and Ben nearing geriatric status in Football years and not having Bell's salery and most likely relieved of AB's.

    We can't be gambling on college kids abilities in the NFL in the 7th inning. Proven players must be sourced during this short window. Especially where they have been swinging and mostly missing. How is this not obvious.

    Look at Joe Haden as example #1

    The Chiefs franchised tagged Ford, and are considering trading him, he's not a free agent anyway. Yeah let's spend 15 million a year on Ford, who cost the Chiefs the AFCCG over New England by lining up offsides :facepalm:.

    Dee Ford is going to get WAY overpaid by someone. He's only had one good season in the NFL, and it was only good in terms of pass rushing. As a run defender he's still pretty mediocre. His first 4 seasons he was basically Bud Dupree.
