X is making top 5 money for a CB on a contract he signed 2 yrs ago.. it's not like he isn't already making top $$.. hopefully iggy is ready and we can get another tunsil type trade.I said this last week and got roasted for it..... we should trade Howard now.
He will very likley never have a 10 int season again. Hes got injury history, hes almost 30 and his value will never be higher.
Now he is holding out.
Let's trade this guy and focus on 2022 and 23 where we will actually have the rebuild completed.
Too many dolphins fans think the rebuild is over, when in reality we arnt as good as KC Buf, Cle, Bal. More work needs to be done.
Get the picks, save the cap space and move on from Howard. It is time.
That was before teams knew he wanted 20 mill (or close to it)Trade him while his value is at an all time high!
Mods, this post right here is why we need down votes/dislike button returned for our use!!!

The dolphins already made him the highest paid CB in the NFL once, when they inked his extension.If he wanted to be the highest paid CB in the NFL every year he should have negotiated a one year deal, unfortunately that sword cuts both ways which is why he didn't...Where has he said it's because he isn't the highest paid on the team? He may want to be the highest-paid CB period and with Gilmore holding out for more I imagine he will want around what Gilmore is making/wanting to make or something around the value of Ramsey contract.
“According to a source, Howard is unhappy about being paid less than Dolphins cornerback Byron Jones, who had two interceptions last season compared with Howard’s 10,” wrote Barry Jackson, Adam Beasley and Armando Salguero.
I've heard he wants more money. Can't give you sources. I'll admit could be legit, from this board, or in my mind.Wait. What?
Did something happen while I was sleeping? Where has it been reported that he wants more money, not just more guaranteed money?
because players know this can happen and that is why they want up front bonus money.. many times players know that they will never see the last years of their contractshow is that different that cutting players on contracts the team signed ???

If all he wants is more guarenteed, then I don't see this being a problem.
You're acting as if you don't know the specifics of his current contract. There is no G money years 3, 4 and 5. Only around 28M is guaranteed. It was always intended to be reworked after year 2. X is just pushing early because of the season he had last year.So if X gets a new contract and has 11 interceptions this year does he hold out again next year?........rinse and repeat.
You don't need to feel anything. Your not involved in his life. But it is time for you to realize how the world works.
Workman's CompCry me a river. The guy could get injured the first play of the season and not play another down the rest of the season and won't miss a paycheck. That's the real world? Maybe yours but in my world if you don't go to work you don't still keep cashing paychecks. That's a pretty sweet deal.
Why are you acting like he's being treated anything other than fairly?
Workman's Comp
X's contract will not pay him full wages indefinitely.Workman's comp pays full wages indefinitely?
