Would you trade Jordan Howard? What would your price be?

Rory Sparrow · Oct 9, 2018

Although Ryan Pace has been notorious for oddly-constructed rosters (9 receivers! 6 offensive linemen!), I think its notable that the Bears have two RBs taking up spots on their practice squad roster. Are the Bears preparing to ship off an upset Jordan Howard to recoup some of their missing draft picks? I think it would make sense if the Bears are only going to use Howard in a Kadeem Carey "run out the clock" role, but I'm not sure if the Bears will be able to get enough value in return. I'm guessing maybe a team like the Eagles would offer a 3rd rounder for Howard, but that might be wishful thinking, and I think the Bears would be better off simply keeping Howard than trading him for less than a 3rd.

No I wouldn't. But if i had to, he would cost more than a 3rd.

No... why would anyone trade Jordan.

Kurtosis · Oct 9, 2018

No, and I’m not sure what the market for him would even be. Maybe they could get a 2nd, which is what I would want the Bears to get in return.

gilder121 · Oct 9, 2018

No. I wouldn't get rid of him. It's a matchup offense and he has a unique (on this team) skillset that will be needed and used at some point.

I also don't think other teams will be interested in giving up more than a 4 for him, which isn't worth it to the Bears IMO. Teams generally like their RBs on rookie deals and his is over half of the way through.

I think the Bears will let him play out his rookie contract without extending him and then we can see what his open market value is. My guess is that he doesn't get another contract here, but you never know.

I just told you.

Myk · Oct 9, 2018

I would, but for a first. I'd take a low first maybe a high second but no way would I take a third.

I think we need to see the effects of gravity on Cohen's agility when the weather gets ickier this season before we talk about trading away our best north/south runner.

anotheridiot · Oct 9, 2018

I think the bigger question is why is Nagy not using our best north south runner.

Toast88 · Oct 9, 2018

You'd probably be lucky to get a 2nd for him.

jtreal3 · Oct 9, 2018

No because I still believe he's the best running back on the roster, and even if he isn't let's say Cohen goes down with injury would you want Howard steping back in as the starter carrying the load or Cunningham or a practice squad guy?

dweebs19 · Oct 9, 2018

If someone is giving a 2nd for him, yes...trade him.

If the price was right........tough to say....I'd like to see a second round, but I don't think anyone gives a 2nd for him....I think the value to his team outweighs the trade value.

I wouldn't either but understand that if i did, a 3rd would be all I could expect.

Mdbearz · Oct 9, 2018

Didn't we do this in the Preseason.....

If someone offers a 3rd or better for Howard, as long as it is not in the division, then yes. I would rather keep him, because quality running backs are still a vital component to having a balanced attack.

Chicoman · Oct 9, 2018

Bell and a 2nd....so no

Ares · Oct 9, 2018

I would want two 1sts, a 3rd, and a 5th, plus their best long snapper.

cbo0485 · Oct 9, 2018

Dolphins are really. Bad against the run, I'd be surprised if this week's game plan didn't feature a healthy dose of Howard. Don't think I'd trade him quite yet, unless it was an offer we couldn't refuse.
