jadeveon clowney is a bust lol

[Sean Payton's Vicodin]

placed on the PUP list already, wont be at TC

Doesn't mean he'll miss any games.

[Billy Love]

Damn shame

Next J Pep imo

Clowney is a bum. Julius will be a 1st or 2nd ballot HOFer. And I hope he chooses to go in as a Bear after the way Carolina fans have trashed him.

Honestly feel bad for the guy.  Microfracture surgery is no joke, it's ruined a lot of athletes... and this dude had some amazing potential.

Even if you do recover from it, there's a very big chance you're not going to be the same as you were before you had it.  Clowney might've had his career basically ruined because he tried to force himself to play while injured last year to shut people up calling him a bust.  Texans should've just sat him.

i predicted this before he was drafted but i don't take any satisfaction in it

I don't understand the "next J Pep" comment. These situations seem nothing alike 

[OnlyPantherFaninMaine]

I'd be fine with him coming back after week 2.

I wouldn't call Clowney a bum. He's got a legitimate injury. This is one of those situations where people go overboard with the hate based on hype. Maybe we will never know if his career could have lived up to it.

Beason had this injury. No cartlidge left in the knee. It's gonna be bad. He will play with pain his entire career

I don't understand the "next JP". Anyone who says that has rose colored glasses. JP was great his rookie year. Has performed well through out his career. Had issues with consistency at times but hell he is still in the league.

I wonder what percentage of the huddle are busts at their jobs.

Because he was as good a defensive prospect as Peppers was, maybe even better... and Peppers was basically a sure thing.

Clowney didn't even have a rookie season... even those 4 games he played, he shouldn't have.  He was dealing with a legitimate injury, and due to the hype he had the media was hounding him and people were making fun of him, so he played through it and it got a thousand time worse, resulting in needing microfracture surgery.

In case you aren't familiar with microfracture surgery, it's very serious.  It ruined Greg Oden, among many others, and it's the same surgery Beason had before he came back and looked like absolute crap.  We'll probably never even see the real Clowney even if he does come back... probably just be an average player dealing with severe pain his whole career.
