Which NFL team is most commonly suggested for a Xavien Howard trade?
Miami Dolphins fans are widely split on the teams current situation with cornerback Xavien Howard. On a Dolphins team that has been sorely lacking in star power over the last decade, Howard is coming off one of the most dominant single-season performances weve seen in South Florida over that stretch. And while hell turn 28-years old in July, thats still young enough for many to consider him a valuable piece of a potential winning-window for a Dolphins team that has spent the last 3 offseasons building a roster to be a legitimate contender. Miami will not likely be eager to pay Howard a raise  but Howard isnt likely to back down, either. The next step for Howards camp could well be a trade request; and if you thought Dolphins fans were split on whether or not to pay him, wait until the question shifts to whether or not to trade him. Theres a whole lot of suggestions that the NFCs Arizona Cardinals made the call. Arizona parted ways with veteran cornerback Patrick Peterson this offseason and made little effort to ensure they actually upgraded the group, so they have a desperate need for quality cornerbacks in a highly competitive division in the NFC West. The Rams own Matt Stafford at quarterback and boast Sean McVay as the coach. The 49ers just drafted Trey Lance at No. 3 overall and boast Kyle Shanahan as the coach. And the Seahawks have the trio of Russell Wilson, DK Metcalf and Tyler Lockett. Sounds like a great division to not have Malcolm Butler, rookie Tay Gowan and Byron Murphy as your top three quarterbacks; but yet thats exactly where Arizona sits. And with a familiar face at defensive coordinator in former Dolphins DC Vance Joseph, theres a common link between Howards time in Miami and his potential landing spot in Arizona. The Cardinals and Dolphins have done business together recently before. That featured some notable trade chips being exchanged  although this trade with Cardinals general manager Steve Keim would require much bigger pieces to get done. Save the 2nd-round pick suggestions for compensation. Thats a senseless deal for Miami. Bleacher Reports trade idea: Dolphins receive: 2022 2nd-Round Pick Cardinals receive: Xavien Howard pic.twitter.com/oP7qiQtyHe  Dolphin Nation (@Dolphin_Nation) June 18, 2021  The Dolphins have four years of contractual commitments from Howard and to trade him for a fraction of what hes worth as a talent, even with his long-term concerns due to knee injuries, doesnt make sense for Miami. The Dolphins willingness to trade Howard is going to come down to a team blowing them away, much like the Texans blew away Miami in their offer for Laremy Tunsil. But dont get greedy, Dolphins fans, setting the bar that high for Howard feels overly optimistic. But if Arizona does indeed want to come knocking, Chris Griers rebuttal can be quite simple. We know you need him. So knock our socks off and lets go from there.
