This draft and the immediate future has to be focused on pass rush. Houston and Ford are what they are: injury prone players who won’t be here beyond 2020. It will be somewhat surprising if even one of them is playing with us in 2020.
What happens if Houston is cut and we rely on injury prone Ford who gets hurt like his past dictates? You’re relying an awful lot on Speaks, Tanoh and a retread.
Let’s face it: pass rushers are a goddamn fortune and we all know that we can’t afford to drop money on one with our current situation.
Right now we have Fuller and Ward at corner and they are serviceable. I feel like a corner not named Byron Murphy is questionable in worth compared to what a pass rusher can provide. I’m thinking there might be some cheaper players to go for in FA and our 2nd rd pick would be just as good of use.
Plus a highly paid pass rusher’s salary is roughly $10 million more per year than a highly paid corner.
Yeah I’m thinking pass rusher. Based on Andy’s history, I bet he is too.
