If they went that route I'd still want another edge in the draft.

Quinnen Williams
Deebo Samuel/Andy Isabella
Chase Winovich

Do that and call it a draft.

Yes please!

Kind of hope we trade down in the draft now, if Ford basically plays the position Bosa would have for us. Hopefully this deal gets us to trade Armstead for a mid round pick.

Bosa----Buckner---NT----Ford (Leo).

This would, in essence, bench two first round DL in Thomas and Armstead.

Thomas can't play inside? I felt that he looked best there at times.

Not on base downs

What a wild hour on the WZ. From everybody being pissed from complete silence, to OBJ actually getting traded, to pure meltdown, to Ford trade, to everyone being happy.

And that's what New League Year's Eve is all about

its full of emotions that's for sure.

Don't count out Josh Allen at SAM/EDGE RUSHER. We got Buck and Thomas to rush from the inside. AA at BE with Ford at LEO. Maybe there's a reason we didn't go all in on Anthony Barr.

Nickle Package

Allen - Thomas - Buck - Ford
Warner - Alexander

Williams isn't going to be the pick. They're going to get Bosa for Leo and leave Ford rushing from the LDE spot.

More than half of those sacks resulted in forced fumbles!!!
Did he really have as many forced fumbles as our entire D had turnovers last year?

Dude amazing

Yeah, that's the key here. We get to keep our high second and high third this year. What a fantastic trade.

Ford's new deal with SF is expected to be approximately $90 million over five years. Still seeking clarification on that and guarantees. #49ers

Here is what I do like about Dee Ford possibly playing at SAM(discussed this with thl): Saleh can disguise his edge rusher with the leo and sam in base by occasionally sending the SAM after the QB and dropping the Leo. A little 3-4 wrinkle.

Literally, this dude is the Barry Sanders on Edge Rushers. He sacks his mark then jogs away or to the sidelines (hardly any celebration)...he doesn't do any dumb s**t.

I doubt that he practices celebrations. Instead he practices his craft imo. Watch the tape, you'll see his teammates celebrate even when he's the one that cause the TO and what not. I'm beginning to love (not like) this F***ING pick!!
