In 2021, Ford will earn a base salary of $1,127,498 and a workout bonus of $50,000, while carrying a cap hit of $2,047,492 and a dead cap value of $1,789,988. I'd love to have a $4 million guarantee for my job and still suck at it. If someone offered you $4 million for a job you were totally unqualified to do and knew you likely would suck at it, would you refuse the money? Quote

I certainly would not. I did and do not fault him for that. He was over-drafted ... almost to the point of Aaron Maybin. I never faulted Maybin, either. But if we're going to call a spade a spade, the guy sucks. And if I had over $4 million dollars and someone called me out for sucking, I'd be just fine with it. And I'm sure he is, too. 2 1 Quote

I’m sure he worked his ass off to get to where he is. You sound like a ruthless owner who would cut a dude who gets injured and loses his career and doesn’t want to pay him a dime.

Who would you rather have at guard? Both a bad at pass protection. Ford is better at run blocking. I might actually take Ford over Feliciano 1 Quote

John Howard Sr. Studies have been done to analyze how hard National Football League players hit each other on the field. The average hit is roughly the same G-force you would absorb if you were in a car and hit a brick wall at 30 miles per hour. Now think about doing that 62 times in a single game. Quote

The average hit is roughly the same G-force you would absorb if you were in a car and hit a brick wall at 30 miles per hour. Now think about doing that 62 times in a single game. First of all, as a result of Ford's dubious work product, Josh Allen is the one getting pounded 62 times a game, not Cody, who functions mainly as a greeter for opposing front 7's. Second, imagine making 40-50k per year in jobs that are actually dangerous, like logging of roofing, where workers actually die without stealing millions of dollars from their employers. 1 1 Quote

Good one. Maybe check the brain scans of some retired security guards. Quote
