No to older players especially defensive players. We need to be getting younger for our young QB of the future.

How much younger can we get?  We have the youngest, most inexperienced team in the league.  We lacked true vet leadership last season.  Clowney could fill a huge void for us

Washed up. One of the most overrated players I’ve ever seen. No thanks! 

He was overrated out of college and as a 1st overall pick but he's a solid overall DE. He had 9 sacks last year in 14 games and is a top run defender. Would love to add him to the group on a short term deal, but has to be for the right price which would likely need to be a hometown discount from him

this perception isnt reality, no he never turned into the next Julius Peppers, but he's had an above average to good career by NFL standards. to say he went pro and did nothing is straight up lying to yourself about him.

Fine sign him to a one year team friendly deal. Not opposed to that I guess.

He sucks

Hard pass on him unless he signs a one year team friendly deal in which he agrees to give all the money back if he has fewer than 7 sacks or misses 7 games

Exactly. Remember we brought in Rasheem Green on a visit 

We drafted DE Amare Barno and then on Monday Raheem Green signed with the Texans 

Clearly we’re happy with Barno, Gross-Matos, Haynes, Joe Jackson, Darryl Johnson. 

Clooney was never as good as he thought he was.

We lacked a decent QB last season. That decided how the season went. We have the same QB this season. No vets.

My worry is that his best years are behind him.

    • if  ANYONE actually goes & looks at the FACTS on rookie Qb's after 2 full seasons as a starter in the NFL & they are still well below average do they rarely ever actually become top tier Qb's & instead most likely either do not recieve a second contract & or become life long backups...just saying 
    • So he became GM and decided not to address the weakness in the QB room following one of the worst rookie QB performances in NFL history?  There were options last season other than signing Dalton to a 2 year deal. Brissett and Jones by a wide margin, both of whom outplayed Bryce, Wilson, Winston, hell even Rivers off the couch was more exciting at the QB position. The time to address the failure in the QB room was last year but instead people on the Huddle cheered when we brought Dalton back then cheered when we were able to get anything for him after they finally realized he was washed up like a few of had been saying all along and got poo'd for even mentioning.  This year, the options were more limited obviously, especially since we lost Icky. It changed the dynamic of our draft. I think we were stuck this year keeping Bryce, but i still think giving him a 5th year option for what has amounted to replacement worthy performance was the wrong move. Why guarantee 25m if you're planning to replace him? You think he's going to want to be a bridge QB? Hell no. He's going to want out and we'll end up cutting him if he has another lackluster season because no one is trading for him with that price tag.  Were there better options as far as production available. A couple. Were there guys available with more physical tools than Bryce, Pickett or Grier, you damn well better believe there were. I've been saying all along, you always keep looking for your 1b. Bryce has yet to prove he can be a starter. Keep looking for someone who may. Put competition in camp. Let the best QB lead the team. Stop settling for less than mediocre.
