Pretty sure that translates to “we are deciding whether we are keeping him or not.”

Ford at OLB in this scheme is a complete waste

I'm pretty sure that's "it costs more to tag him as a DE so we aren't going to say anything yet".

According to several here, the franchise tag is based on last year's snaps so it doesn't matter what they say now.

I'm pretty sure if they come out and say he's going to be a DE, he could file a grievance and win.

I was told I was wrong, FWIW.

It makes sense that they wouldn't commit to say DE knowing then Ford would most likely win his grievance to get the higher DE tag.

Otherwise, Spagnuolo said they are not too hung up on scheme which probably means that they intend to use a lot of subpackages and run a hybrid scheme possibly.

I'd think they would like to use him similar to what the Broncos did with Von under Wade.

I actually think Ford would do really well in a Schwartz type defense playing in a wide 9. You can hide him vs the run by lining him up on the weak side, and moving him out wide. With his first step and speed, he'd do more than fine lined up wide. Since spags likes to run over fronts I think Ford could do fine. I don't follow von Miller enough to know if that's how he's been used

There is a new article in the KC Star. I can't post it, because I have used up my free reads for the month. Here is the title.

Switch to 4-3? Chiefs’ Spagnuolo preaches ‘physical, competitive defensive football’

EDIT: Was there a press conference today?

Spags had a conference call with the media today.

Nice little article. I really love the idea of him taking a year off to learn the game. House knows what's up in the sec, Daly brings ideas from an innovative defense. Good chance the defense we see is nothing like what spagnuolos used in the past. Wasn't long ago people thought Andy Reid was just pretty good on offense before he stumbled into being the leading offensive mind in the NFL.

Spag is going to make so many eat tons of crow, including me.

Everything he's done and said so far has been on point.

That's what happened with Derrick Thomas...he wanted to be listed as a DE...Chiefs wanted him listed as an OLB. Hence the term "Falcon Backer" was created.
