Dee Ford, our 331st ranked linebacker, is best suited to be a depth backup. We project he will end up with the Cincinnati Bengals because they could use a player of this quality to play linebacker. The Bengals currently have 6 healthy linebackers, and 4 are rated better than Ford: (Germaine Pratt, Logan Wilson, Markus Bailey, and Joe Bachie).
The Bengals currently have no linebackers under contract beyond the 2027 season, so Ford may only be getting a short term deal, considering his age, with the team.
