OJ Howard On The Trading Block Per Report

[Bradyking12]

Buccaneers tight end O.J. Howard on the trading block, per report

Let's get em

 

[oceansizer]

Third or fourth round for him and I am in. Second round is too rich.
Still promising prospect used in a wrong way by Tampa.

 

[resdubwhite]

Second rd we dont have and probably have to clear cap space too. Player for player switch?

 

[luuked]

Third or fourth round for him and I am in. Second round is too rich.

Fourth round sounds about right. Given his lack of production I doubt he'd fetch a higher comp pick anyhow.

He'd be a one year rental with his fifth year option going to about 6m.

 

[farn]

3rd or 4th sure. Can’t see him going for much more. The reposts of him “just not getting it” would be one reason to limit the price.

 

[Bourne Again Christian]

Edelman for Howard hate to say it but makes sense

 

[primetime]

I don't understand why they would move Howard, he's the best blocking tight end in the business and he's usable as a receiver, but he's definitely worth a third considering the awful crop of tight ends in this draft, and you would have him under control for two years if you exercise his option.

Frankly I think something like Gronk's rights and a late round pick for Howard and the #76 overall pick makes the most sense if they want to go that route.

 

[Triumph]

Gonk is going to Tampa Beach.

Bostons favorite Son no more.

 

[Gator Mike]

Are we in a position where we should be taking on one-year rentals?

I'm not so sure at this point.

 

[Taco]

Are we in a position where we should be taking on one-year rentals?

I'm not so sure at this point.

What is the concern? We can always sign him long term during the year.

 

[primetime]

Are we in a position where we should be taking on one-year rentals?

He's got an option so would not necessarily be a rental.

 

[SHOWTIME15]

Pats inquired about him earlier in 2019....

 

[FCB02062]

Agreed on 3d or 4th...heck id probably even do a 2 given recent Pats draft misses

 

[NashuaPats]

What about Howard and a 2nd for Thuney? Or Howard and a 3rd? It helps us free up cap space.

 

[Gator Mike]

He's got an option so would not necessarily be a rental.

My bad, then.

I was concerned about acquiring someone who could walk after a season where we're not likely to be Super Bowl contenders.

 

[festy1986]

Would be nice if we had someone who could throw to him. Hes already spent a good amount of time playing with ****ty QBs

 

[Uptown]

Give them a third and be done with it. We have 3.





Bucs TE O.J. Howard On Trade Block?

Rob Gronkowski Responds To Patriots-Bucs Trade Rumor, Doesn’t Refute It

Arians has no idea how to use TEs. I’ll take Howard here in a heartbeat. His 2019 numbers would double.

Of course he wouldn't refute it. The rumors only give him more publicity which helps his post career.

Because they are trading for Gronk obviously
