The new Jadeveon Clowney.

I know we're desperate but don't do this.

Jadeveon Clowney is a solid DE who has earned his role as a starter on multiple teams.

He didn't end up being #1 overall pick good, but he is an A+ Run defender and decent pass rusher.

Years when he actually stays healthy (Which is not often) he puts up solid numbers.

He's also light-years better than anyone else on our roster who plays the position.

My view?  If he is cheap, why not?  He is 24, will get 9-10 sacks, and we would have paid $25m for that.  We can't fill all the holes this year.   Do I expect much? No, but when I was 24....

If they give him $20m, NO.  If they give him $2-4 m, maybe.

He's probably going to get around $10M give or take a few

He just had a decent season, given his age tho

He always has decent seasons, he’s just completely destroyed his ability to ever really build a name for himself by being a mercenary determined to maximize his dollar value down to the penny every single offseason

the guy could’ve gone somewhere and really been a franchise icon but he’s been obsessed with squeezing every drop of money he can, and I guess that’s his prerogative to do.

if it were me though, and it isn’t, but if it were, actually embracing a city and being embraced in return and never having to buy my own meal again seems like something worth having 

 he’s a good player.

Most definitely.  When Chase went to SF he did very little for them after the trade.  I don't know whether the injury he suffered affected his play or he is just washed up.  

Low salary, good deal.  High Salary, No Way,.

He's not going to take a lowball contract lol.

Did not say he would--He has not earned anything but a lowball contract.  I just would not pay him more--someone might, but I would not.  If you pay a half-asser more than most of the players at his position, it would send a negative message.  I look at the player's impact on others.  He is a bigger name,and he will influence a locker room--not gonna pay to have cancer.

He probably needs to be on a team with some veterans who can take him under their wings--we won't have that

The Huddle will love Chase Young if they think Burns was bad at taking plays off. Burns could get washed out and be taken out of the play, but Young will literally jog through his rep and not engage in a tackle right in his path.

Absolutely not a dog. If the Panthers sign him then it's because they're feeling the heat and their plans for free agency fell apart.

This is an instance where 2 dimes might actually end up being better than a quarter. 

Exactly.  When you are building a team, attitude is very important, and if you bring a turd into your locker room, it could have a negative impact on a lot of players.  People forget, you go through adversity and it is very competitive. Attitude is everything.

Clowney is the Sam Bradford of DEs.

This is what I need to hear--I have only seen his highlights.  Good players in the NFL rarely play on 3 teams before they turn 25.  I would not pay him much, and I would keep him on a short leash.

      XL is a Lost Cause

      By SmokinwithWilly · Posted

      I agree with this and I think it's worth mentioning too that Bryce is not consistent on his placement and especially velocity and that in large part is driven by his footwork. We all know XL doesn't have the best hands and I don't know that he can overcome that. Cam always had the heater that just hit your hands and sank into your grip, where Bryce has some that are harder thrown, some soft. Bryce stepping into a pass looks so much different than that hop throw thing he does. I think XL really needs to hit the jugs machine and start learning how to catch all these different touch passes. TMac and Coker don't have these issues. If XL doesn't get some work in he's going to be out of the league in the next couple of years.

      By frankw · Posted

      I think most people like XL from a personal standpoint. I don't think he's stupid either. Although if we are being realistic he is lacking in football IQ at this point in time and it cannot be disputed that he has not taken working on his craft seriously at all times given the body of work on the field. It speaks for itself. I myself have defended him at times given the circumstances of our QB room. But he is now in his third year and 25 years old. We are not in a position as a franchise to go around babying anyone especially first round draft picks. He needs to take his position and his football career seriously or he is going to end up selling used cars somewhere. I hope he realizes this and takes an extended break from social media because that mess certainly isn't going to increase his net worth if he ends up out of the league. And these hanger on types will disappear quick too once that money dries up and it surely will eventually. We'll see how he responds.
