The contract details for Dee Ford have been coming out and everyone who was worried about the massive hit the salary cap took can relax a bit. Ford does get some crazy guaranteed money, yes it’s $87 million, but the San Francisco 49ers took advantage of the money they have up front to get him taken care of. On the surface it looks like it was $45 million in guarantees, but this is Paraag Marathe we’re talking about here, and it doesn’t work like that. Instead it’s a contract with a huge hit for 2019, but besides incentives and other things, turns into a year-to-year deal.
