why should we not at least except a first for howard? i really don't understand.......would'nt you as a team in need of a proven player such as howard give a first and then some for an immediate impact player? come on, enlighten me......... i know the cap situation and i also know that contracts are reworked everyday to work within the cap......if the saints, and this is a bad example, needed howard, what would they give? the uncertainty of the draft will always be that. choose whichever stud you think is out there but the truth remains, they have to not only comprehend, but adjust to the nfl. and then, they need to stay healthy........lot of head hunters out there looking to make a name for themselves.....so, you manage to be at the top of your game for yrs and you don't deserve the top salary? b.s....................in howards case i'll take the proven player..........don't alot of you whine about proven players the saints should have gone after? you don't seem to mind about paying for them.......yeah, yeah, yeah, you can say we not paying the players we want almost double digits but if it was someone you really wanted that has proven himself again and again you could justify it......
and for the record, someone tell me if howard has ever spoken out against the saints or his teammates and whined about anything, because i can't recall it............howard shows up to play, hurt or not and although the nfl will always be business, howard is the just the type of businessman you want on your team...............smitty
