Clowney released

As it stands now, OLB will be:

Wonnum, Jones, Scourton, Umanmielen

And then it comes down to DJ Johnson & Amare Barno. I think Barno would make it based on ST, but they could still look to sign/claim another OLB for that final spot.

It does seem like Canales is telling it straight when he says the rookies are going to play a lot.

 

 

 Jones out produced Clowney straight up in everything but tackles in which he was a hair behind as a rotational guy.

 

Wonnum played half a season and did the same.

Not sure why I spelled in Wonham. Zeppelin maybe.

Anyways, if he's not a good locker room guy then it's easy to part with Clowney.

Yep, but they can all rotate with Brown, Brown and Robinson (sounds like a law firm). Can't continue to have Derrick Brown out there for 90+ percent of the defensive snaps. An injury was bound to happen. 

Injuries happen when they happen man he played all of 10 snaps last year and got hurt..

I think he played the whole game and his knee swelled overnight. Dude is tough as nails. But 300+ pounders shouldn't play as many snaps a game as he does. You're more likely to get injured when you're gassed anyway.

He took a pay cut already 

That, and he can play NT & DE in this system.

That is the only reason I could see him sticking around another season (and the fact he already took a pay cut).

Still think it's just as likely as not he doesn't make the final 53.

    • Great game Walker and Burns nice
    • I see they blamed Slavin for the goal like I did. 
    • See this is the problem, you say "can't get off the line quick" and "can't separate quick" but in reality it's "he can get off the line better and create more separation" which are two completely different things. If he couldn't get off the line or separate, he wouldn't have put up the numbers he did and end up a Top 10 pick. But he can get better, and maybe more accurately, consistent with them both, and that will take his game to the next level.  These are things that are also much easier to improve once you get to the NFL than things like being a poor route runner or having bad hands, two of his strengths. Thinking he can't get open in the short passing game also shows you haven't watched enough tape on him, as he was used in that role so much in college with little issue getting open and making plays. And him not using his physicality as much isn't even something that hurts his game because he's so much more agile than a player of his size should be, which he used to his advantage.  Instead of throwing passes where he'd go up and box out a player like a TE or Mike Evans does, they use his athleticism and put the ball in places that only he can get to it, and he usually does (and yes, he'll still be able to do that against NFL DB's with his catch radius). But now that he's in the NFL, I'd like to see him get stronger and add that to his game because it also will help him take his game to another level. As I've said before, if he doesn't improve on those things at all, I think he's a Top 25 WR in this league, he's already that good.  But I think he'll improve on those things and be a perennial Top 10 WR and in his prime is considered and perform like Top 5 guy in some years. My expectations for him this year at 800 yards and 8 TDs (although I do think he'll get to 10 TDs) with a real chance at getting to 1,000.  But those expectations are because I think Thielen will lead the team in yards with close to 1k and XL/Coker each end up in the 500-600 range themselves, just too many mouths to feed this year for a rookie to dominate yardage, especially if we're running the ball well again. But if Thielen can't stay healthy or puts up sub 750 yards, then yea, my expectations for T-Mac likely shift to getting to 1k as a rookie.
