Why are you wanting to trade an established good corner who you have under contact for 4 more years at a reasonable cost? The odds they turn that draft pick/cap savings into something as good as Howard is unlikely. This is why bad teams stay bad. Unless Howard is suddenly bad, then I take it all back.

Edit: I forgot they have Byron Jones now so maybe spending $30m on two corners isn't the greatest ideas when you have to play the Jets and Patriots 4 times per year.

Unfortunately, most non-QB players age like bread. Yeah Dez may only be 31, but, hell, just look at AJ Green.

This shouldn't be any sort of a surprise. You paid a big money contract for Byron Jones, and you drafted a cornerback in the 1st. All three are available and they're all playing boundary corner- no slot, no safety, etc.

He's played 16 games in his career all of once, and he's had repeated knee injuries. Selling high off of a bunch of interceptions absolutely makes sense, otherwise you're cutting him what, next year? The year after?

I like having a few more afternoon games as opposed to the current way which is like 8 morning games, then a pitiful amount of 2-3 afternoon games.

Yeah, I get really annoyed when none of the afternoon games are any good. Of course the Hawks are usually playing in the afternoon and they almost never play a dull game so this is typically when the Hawks are out of the afternoon slot.

Xavien Howard has probably a single season worth of "elite" games all together since 2017, in among a bunch of missed games and games where he's recovering from a knee injury and/or knee surgery.

How much is 3-4 quality games a season worth? How long is his knee going to hold up and allow him to give you those games?

Nah, his contract isn't bad. He's just 33 and won't be around or useful for very long, so might as well get anything for him.

Also, he signed to compete, so you're doing him a favor by shipping him out... even if it's to the loving Lions.

A conditional 6th for half a season of Griffen is a steal imho, especially if you're trying to make the push for the 7th seed.
