Alphadawg7 Posted February 28, 2019 Posted February 28, 2019 Bears reportedly shopping Jordan Howard. Any interest? I’d like to see what they want for him, he’s been pretty productive over his first 3 years and can catch too. I wouldn’t trade a high pick given the depth of the RBs in the draft, but if we could get him for a day 3 pick, I think it’s worth looking into. 2

Would be an upgrade over Ivory at the very least, but also a quality starter if McCoy doesn’t rebound this year Personal opinion - just never liked him much going back to his IU days. He’s just ok. I would rather use the day 3 pick elsewhere and aim higher for a RB. Jmo 3 1
Aussie Joe Posted February 28, 2019 Posted February 28, 2019 Would probably turn out to be a 1 year rental Use the Day 3 pick on a guy you get for 4 years.... 5
CommonCents Posted February 28, 2019 Posted February 28, 2019 Trade a slightly earlier pick for Royce Freeman if you’re scared of drafting RB. 1
lacoy38 Posted February 28, 2019 Posted February 28, 2019 Definitely- I bet he can be had for a 6th round pick . Not heavy mileage and a good complement to an aging Shady
Coach Tuesday Posted February 28, 2019 Posted February 28, 2019 He's just a slightly younger version of Ivory. He's a plodder, you can find UDFAs who do what Howard can do. 2
BuffaloBillies Posted February 28, 2019 Posted February 28, 2019 Most important indicator is that he was a terrible fantasy RB for me last year. He had some real stinkers. 5 games he didn't even get 3 yds/carry He was pulling splinters out of his arse halfway through the season on my team. 1

BuffaloBillsGospel Posted February 28, 2019 Posted February 28, 2019 RB is a dime a dozen imo, I'd rather draft one in the later rounds, heck even plenty of undrafted rookie free agents can become stars.
ndirish1978 Posted February 28, 2019 Posted February 28, 2019 (edited) There are a bunch of mid-to-late round rbs I'd rather have. Myles Gaskin Darrell Henderson Benny Snell Justice Hill Devin Singletary Edited February 28, 2019 by ndirish1978

Since the day Nagy got there he was viewed as a guy who didnt fit his system. Nagy wants more of a shifty guy and Jordan is more of a straight line runner. I think Jordan would be a better Ivory to McCoy. Send a day 3 pick, like one of our extra 5ths for him (RB's just dont hold great trade value, so he could probably be had this cheap) and then draft a guy like Henderson or Love to compliment the group. McCoy and Howard lead the backfield this year, with Howard and that young RB being the duo next year. This isnt a must trade scenario for me, but I do like this if we can get him for a 5th.
Chicken Boo Posted February 28, 2019 Posted February 28, 2019 I'm a Jordan Howard fan. The Bears did a poor job of utilizing him this past season. 2
