Why aren't we considering Da'Quan Bowers?

He's a great pass rusher.

He's similar to Pep in the run game. He has the speed to chase down weakside run plays.

Also very powerful and can rag doll quarterbacks and running backs.

Also very tall so he can be disruptive at the line for opposing quarterbacks.

He also has lots of experience playing inside. Imagine CJ and Hardy lining up to Bowers and a good FA DT. We would generate a hell of a pass rush on 3rd down.

So then, why aren't we considering him? He's much more of a physical freak than Fairley and his career production is better (not that either of them produced greatly before this season).

The reason is that we got lucky and added some talent there recently.

Brown, Hardy, CJ, Brayton, Norwood. That is a group that many teams would love to have. With as many needs as we have we can not draft Bowers. PLUS the guy was not consistent. He did nothing his first 2 years at Clemson.

While he is talented we have Johnson and Hardy that is developing quite well. I see no need to add him because of this. Also this is why I doubt we will go after Green.

Exactly. Plus you just dont take WR's #1. From what I understand even with a CBA there won't be a rookie cap this year, it would start 2012. Hense all the talk about Luck should have come out this year while he could still get the big money.

Personally I don't see anyone in this draft worth paying what we would have to pay the #1 pick. I definately can't see JR paying a single WR top QB money and that is what he would have to pay him.

Trade down.

      Are all veterinarians this greedy ?

      By LinvilleGorge · Posted

      Like a lot of things in today's economy, market concentration is a huge issue in the vet space. Mars (yeah, the chocolate company) owns roughly half of them with their control of Banfield and VCA as well as numerous smaller chains. Oh, and all that Royal Canon food the vets are prescribing and recommending? Yeah, that's owned by Mars too. Don't even get me started on the racket that is "prescription" dog food and how incredibly uneducated the average vet is on basic pet nutrition. Back to the actual clinics... private equity ghouls who care about literally nothing but profit own another 30%. Now you're down to roughly 20-25% of clinics that aren't under the thumb of Mars or private equity.

      like any profession, a lot of them are very greedy and balloon up bills.  My buddy is a vet.   When he was first starting out he had BIG issues with the vet he was employed with because he was expected to drive up bills.    He now owns his own practice driven by that very reason.  Good man that wants to sleep good at night....doing what he set out to do at a young age (with the same reason in mind, to help animals and people).  But per him, a HUGE % of small animal vets are just gouging the f out of people.  like most things, I want the most mom and pop variety I can find.  The bigger practice, like most businesses, it more likely is owned and operated to make as much money as possible at the end of the day.
