Jadeveon Clowney upset about being released


Recommended Posts

“I got a sense then they wanted me out of the building,” Clowney said. “I was just like, ‘Y’all could’ve told me this back when I was coming in here during the offseason.’ I kind of had a sense, though. I’ve been around the game long enough to know, so I was OK.”

I wonder why he got a sense they wanted him out of the building…..it’s because of his sh*tty attitude. Go back and listen to him talking about our QBs leadership skills (to the media) when he was just signed to the team and hadn’t even had time to gel with his teammates (all players know you don’t say things like that to the media….you keep it in the locker room). History repeats itself. He’s a player who is decent, gets signed to a team, they get tired of his attitude, and he’s on to another team one year later

Not enough talent to overcome the drama, I suppose. 

It ain't a talent issue. Dude's talent was off the charts. Just seems like he never had the drive to be great. Was always willing to just rest in his talent and settle for being good. He definitely COULD'VE been great.

from a football perspective I think releasing him was the wrong move

That being said Clowney has always seemed to have an attitude that rubs people the wrong way. I mean how many teams has he been on at this point? 

My bet is that the Panthers actually didn't want him mentoring the young guys and now we have space to sign a FS. do not kill me gamecocks fans this has nothing do with your fine university 

We'll see how that works out bc that edge room looks very very iffy

He's a rotational pass rusher on the worst defense in the NFL.  We're not missing much by letting him go.  Later dude.

Clowney's resume reads:

Hit a Michigan RB really hard that one time. Drafted #1 overall. Never had a double digit sack season. Started on the worst defense in NFL history. Oh, did I mention he got a Michigan RB really hard that one time?

He had big potential 10 years ago.  Now he's just an average NFL pass rusher with an attitude problem.

Exactly. He has made a literal multi contract career off of one hit, hope, and his God given measurables.

I was unaware of the idea he doesn't have a good attitude. I liked the idea of keeping the veteran aspect of the depth but if it wasn't a positive influence then that is different.

I am interested to see what they might do now.

    • They know within 15 mins.  Many moons ago skins drafted Heath Shuler at like 5th overall and Gus Frerotte in the late rounds. You know the plan, its Heaths team. Old OLman stink said within 15 minutes they knew Gus was the better QB.  I didn't need 15 or players on the same field, I just knew like Bill said "he better walk on water", which he hasn't. I do blame tepper mainly for it, he spend the greater part of 2 year telling everyone Watson would be a panther......and fail....but a great fail...then Stanford turned panthers down.....tepper was beyond pissed and wanted a QB. He forced the trade and picked BY......and now by .....some grace of the gods formed a team with 4 QBs of no hope...... insane given the other roster spots.....
    • He definitely knows nothing about the Panthers, but there’s no denying he’s a pioneer in this whole draft grading and mock draft field.
    • I actually say wait five years since that's long enough to know if a player  became something worthy enough for a long term contract, whether with their original team or someone else. Therefore... 1 (8): Jaycee Horn - Has been questions about his durability but when he's healthy, he plays at a high level. Should we have drafted Pat Surtain or Micah Parsons, however? Arguably could’ve done better, but he's still here so that's a W pick. 2 (59): Terrance Marshall - Yet another classic Panther WR bust. I don’t recall seeing anything in his college tape that made me excited about drafting him in the first place.  3 (70): Brady Christensen - Proved to be a versatile player on the O-line.  As of now, we haven’t signed him back and I feel that we should. That's enough to say he was a solid draft pick. 3 (83): Tommy Tremble - Hasn't emerged as a consistent productive player, but he's had his moments here and there. We can certainly do better, but we haven’t found that guy yet so he still has some utility. W because he's not Ian Thomas. 4 (126): Chuba Hubbard - Surprise of the draft. It took time, but he's now our lead back.  5 (158): Daviyon Nixon - Had a half a sack with us and... that's it. I think I liked what I saw but it didn't pan out. 5 (166): Keith Taylor - Another guy I liked but only stuck around for two years. Played for a few other teams but nothing really to note. 6 (193): Deonte Brown - I really thought this guy was going to be a steal. He might’ve been the guy that had weight issues and never really got a handle on it. 6 (204): Shi Smith - He scored double the touchdowns that Marshall did in his short time here; it was two. Yeah, the Panthers wide receiver history is rather bleak. 6 (222): Thomas Fletcher - I had to look it up but he was a long snapper. JJ Jansen is immortal, so it was a wasted draft pick. 7 (232): Phil Hoskins - Actually recorded a sack here in his short career. Wish I could remember it.   Surprisingly not a bad draft when you have two good/great starters and a JAG that's still here, plus a good rotation guy most would like to keep.
