Jeff Duncan says, Saints are very interested in bidding for Xavien Howard.

The thing about Howard is this isn’t his first time taking to social media to air his grievances about his contract. Who’s to say he doesn’t do that a year or two into his time here?

Indeed. The money has to come from somewhere, and Howard wants guaranteed money past his 30th birthday. I don’t know how smart it is to give a guy who hasn’t been on the team that kind of money after 30, but hey, I’m fine either way (it’s not my money).
Howard is not happy bc he’s not the highest paid CB on his team. However, he SHOULD be. He’s 10 times better than Byron Jones. All the Dolphins have to do is just rework his contract and bump him up a little. It’s not like he hasn’t outplayed his contract so far. The guy has led the league in interceptions twice already. What has Byron done? It was basically a slap in Howard’s face for the Dolphins to sign Byron for that much money. Byron friggin Jones is making over $16 million a year. Yeah, that’s not a typo. He has done nothing in his career to warrant that kind of money. Now, is Howard being a bit petty over the difference of $1 million a year??? Probably, but if I’m the alpha male CB, who knows that he outplaying the CB on the opposite side, who gets to guard the #2 WR, and isn’t half the CB that he is, then he has a right to have a gripe.
