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

I pass, because of our current status and lack of assets to trade with. We are no longer in the Drew retirement countdown, instead, we are in a transition period looking for our next long-term QB while trying to manage our cap. In the long term, I think being patient with the upcoming suspensions and develop some young guys on D.

Yeah this is how I feel too. With so much uncertainty at QB I don't know if they can afford to be trading for a big ticket Corner. Well, I know they can afford it but does it make sense? Right now we don't know who are starting QB will be this season let alone the future.

If Winston turns out to be awesome then we'll have to sign him, but if we trade for Howard we'll be cash strapped. If Winston and Hill are a train wreck then we'll need to draft a QB, but trading for Howard will leave us draft poor. They might look to acquire a vet QB but again, they'll need the resources to do it. In a perfect world Book turns out to be the truth and we have an awesome secondary with a QB playing for peanuts.

I wish Howard would've been this upset last off season. With Drew coming back for one more year, one last all in move like this could've been huge.
