Joe_is_the_best Posted May 10, 2019 Share Posted May 10, 2019 5 hours ago, ET80 said: It probably shows an example of why you SHOULD re-sign a CB. The Texans secondary went from OK to downright atrocious overnight, thanks to that Bouye decision. Man, Kevin Johnson was bad. Bad doesn't even begin to describe it. *shudders 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Take back what I said anyways, he signed a 5 year 55m deal in January of 2010 making him the 3rd highest paid secondary player in the NFL. You didnt say record deal.. you said big money.. thats big money that won a super bowl Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they didn't resign him, "Typical Dolphins lose all the best players. This is why they always suck." I really thought they were going to trade Howard and get a couple of high draft picks in return. You know, a rebuild. Now it seems like it's not a rebuild, instead it was a typical multi-veteran bloated contract dump and Miami is instead looking to fight for a 2019 wildcard spot with a buncha young'uns.

Complete re-build doesn't mean you void your team of all Talent? You have to build around something? He's one of the few pieces. Not like they've kept much else to build around? Have to start somewhere. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you’re going to omit the Pats because they’re going to be good anyway, then you have to omit the Redskins and the Jets because they’re going to be bad anyway. Peterson doesn’t really fit that criteria because the Cards were coming off a 10-6 season and had two following playoff berths. You could also point to the Revis-Pats, Harris/Talib-Broncos, Sherman-Seahawks, or Joseph-Texans as deals that have panned out well for the teams. There’ll always be more misses than hits in this sport, but big CB deals don’t seem to be any more troublesome than any other’s. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joseph paid big dividends for Houston, but he was one of many changes that offseason. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't see why. The cornerstone of our defense is going to be the secondary like NE does it. The key pieces of our defense are Howard and Fitzpatrick. If we can move Fitz to FS, McCann back to the slot, and find a solid #2 CB who doesn't get beat like a drum, the secondary will be good. Then it's a matter of building up front.

And he's definitely top 10 at this position. Plus it won't be so bad as the salary cap goes up and other guys will get bigger contracts. The money is good now, but wait until he sees what other players get at his position. The Dolphins are going to have a ton of cap space next year and a lot of it has to be filled. I'd rather that money go to a guy heading into his prime. Outside of this, the Dolphins aren't going to be major spenders. If anything, they may do the Cleveland approach and take on bad contracts for draft picks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
showtime Posted May 12, 2019 Share Posted May 12, 2019 Howard is really good. This contract will seem like a bargain in a few years once other guys get paid more than this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One CB can’t do that. More just defending CB-deals, specifically. Disagree with the notion that good teams/FOs don’t pay corners. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tetsujin Posted May 14, 2019 Share Posted May 14, 2019 They gave Howard a 7M roster bonus for the last year of his contract this year. So he's actually making between 12M-14M in 2020 and beyond. GREAT move, IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
