From what I've gathered about this coming draft is that it is a very weak edge rusher draft. So this move may remove DE from our board letting us go after QB, CB and iOL. In that order

That Baker kid wanting to come here instead of Kansas City would have been good too. That would have knocked out CB and DE early in the draft.

Maybe he'll grow up and become a good rotational guy for us.

Most fan bases are bitter if a prospect doesn't turn into a super star and leaves prematurely.

Living in NY the amount of OBJ homers i listened to for the first couple seasons was insane. Dude was the savior and could do no wrong...the moment he leaves he's a piece of garbage

I wouldn't expect ATL fans to having anything good to say about a player that wanted out of there lol. Hell those fans called out Shanahan and not Dan Quinn. I'm not putting much stock into stuff like that.

Because of the numbers, I don't expect Dee Ford to be outright cut. Do we have an easy out in 2022?

Yeah landing Baker would have been nice but Moseley has played better than Baker ever did in NY.

We are next in the waiver wire order of teams interested enough to put in a claim last week. The Raiders and browns also reportedly put in a claim in addition to us. So we may end up with him

Yup sounds like SF is more than likely gonna pick him up.

In before 9moon starts referring to him solely as "Mount McKinley" as if he's super creative.

Hasn't Blair been hurt 3 out of 5 years?

I see that releasing Ford next year pre 6/1 gets a $14,355,000 hit post 6/1 gets a $4,785,000 in 2021 and $9,570,000 in 2022. If they release him pre 6/1 in 2022 it's a $9,750,000 hit that year and post 6/1 $4,785,000 that year and $4,785,000 in 2023. The way it looks the lesser hit is in 2022 post 6/1 release.

Blair has 27 QB hits in 47 career games. Were not letting him leave.

The question/statement still remains. He's been hurt 3 out of 5 years?

What Niner hasn't been hurt? If were going to discriminate against guys who have been hurt we won't have a team.

Besides, injuries have context. Tearing an ACL is a hazard of the job that could happen to anyone at any time. You aren't going to let Blair leave because he missed time from an ACL tear.

That's exactly the point. There are numerous guys that have a history of injury that will be free agents after this season. This team needs to move away from them. No matter what some guys can't manage to stay healthy. Blair has been available to play for 2 of 5 whole years. He's a depth/rotational piece. No need to break our heads and no need keep tying up whatever amount of cap for guys that are continually hitting the SPA instead of the field.
