That is good news.
I get that Ford is a good team guy and very willing to play anywhere. And can. He plays everywhere at a mediocre level. And that has value. But he should not start. And really should not be the primary backup, either. OL8/9 is where he needs to be.
But, as the guy who has been here longer, I kinda get the coaches giving him the starting look first. But the longer he is with the 1's, the more worried I get.
Still way early.
But I'd feel much better with another starter level guy in the fold. What if Fairchild struggles?
I'd be thrilled if Patrick was a reserve. Both G spots. C3. Can fill in nicely if someone goes down. As a starter? He is like C+/B-.
