Things change rapidly in this league. You can go for SB contender to middling team pretty damn quick, see the 49ers as an example (Again, not specifically talking about Howard, but if a good #2 corner became available already on a decent contract, it would be foolish for the Bills to not seriously consider pulling the trigger, IMO.) No one will argue with adding a player on a "decent" contract. That's rarely the case, though.
JerseyBills Posted July 15, 2021 Posted July 15, 2021 This is our biggest threat in the East? 🤣😂 Howard is very good but his int numbers definitely inflate his value. I'd take him all day if we didn't have Tre. Mia has tons of picks, going to get more. Whether they hit on them or not will determine if they're a good or great team
machine gun kelly Posted July 15, 2021 Posted July 15, 2021 We’ll if we needed someone, we could always get a seasoned vet like Richard Sherman, oh wait…. Sorry, too easy. As far as Howard, no thanks. I’m putting my 21 red on Dane Jackson. I’m hopeful he surprises all of us pleasantly this year. 2 1
Bleeding Bills Blue Posted July 15, 2021 Posted July 15, 2021 19 hours ago, NoSaint said: with a cornerstone qb they can win a lot all the time… but occasionally you have to put the chips on the table to go after a ring… and that rarely bankrupts you. this isn’t the guy I do it for though. Tend to agree. And you try to avoid taking on too much bad money or paying too much in compensation. This falls in the latter. If they could get an overpaid CB for a 5th round pick? get it done.
H2o Posted July 15, 2021 Posted July 15, 2021 Good, get him out of Miami and watch Josh throw for 600yds against them next time. 1

Shutdown corner remains a top priority in the ever growing passing league it has become. Why Miami would shop him is weird though when their defense is what carried them to double digit wins. I’m certainly in favor of getting the guy OUT of the AFC East.
Doc Posted July 15, 2021 Posted July 15, 2021 With another 1st round pick, Miami should be great in 2024...
Orlando Buffalo Posted July 16, 2021 Posted July 16, 2021 Talent only I want the guy but his cost financially I don't see how we make it work.

The Brown acquired a lot of picks over the years but were never able to find their QB. Even now I'm not convinced Mayfield is the guy. Same will go for the Fins. 1

Saxum Posted July 27, 2021 Posted July 27, 2021 Dolphins’ Howard reports despite unhappiness with contract https://apnews.com/article/sports-nfl-miami-dolphins-c8d2e4cd499b3901e2fe32ac20204f38 Quote Howard joined the rest of the Dolphins reporting Tuesday after he sat out mandatory minicamp because he’s unhappy with the $75.25 million, five-year extension he signed two years ago. There had been speculation he might hold out. Flores said all 90 players on the roster reported for conditioning tests at the Dolphins’ new $135 million training camp next to their stadium. Quote “It is like the first day back to school,” said Flores, beginning his third year with the team. The Dolphins doubled their win total to 10 last year but missed the playoffs for the fourth consecutive season. On Phish board poster stated they should double wins again this year since they doubled it last year and kept anyone who made a difference. 1

After this year he has very little left in guarantees. I suspect what he wants is the Fish to find a way of committing to him beyond this year as much as a pay rise. His contract is at the pretty classic hold out point for a star player. 1 1
Dkollidas Posted July 28, 2021 Posted July 28, 2021 Could totally see Dallas doing something like this if they can work the cap out…

Solomon Grundy Posted July 28, 2021 Posted July 28, 2021 (edited) 1 hour ago, Dablitzkrieg said: He said he’s willing to work with management to help both sides. Can something like this happen here? Can the Bills rework his contract to give him upfront money? I’d gladly give the Dolphins a 1st rd pick in the 30s for a top notch CB opposite Tre Day. Edited July 28, 2021 by Solomon Grundy
