Falcons and Clowney. Dimitroff possibly setting the stage.

I would be surprised if the Texans don't select Clowney, but I wouldn't be surprised if Thomas Dimitroff doesn't have that notion floating around in his head. I suppose it would depend upon how much he is willing to sacrifice. We all know that he is aggressive, but he is willing to trade up per nfl.com.  

 

Jadeveon Clowney in the NFC South? How does that change the thinking at 28?

I wouldn't be surprised at all if the Texans didn't take him. I'm leaning toward them taking Bortles with the first pick overall or trading out of it and trying to get him a few spots later. 

 

I cant see Bortles going no1. I think it'll be between Clowney and Bridgewater. Bob McNair likes Manziel, but he's just not the kind of guy for a blue collar Bill O'Brien.

The team is leaning towards a QB and it's between Manziel and Bortles. McNair likes Manziel, but O'Brien like Bortles.

I seriously doubt that Clowney goes number 1 overall. I mean, there is absolutely a chance, but if they insist on running that 34, I might would even consider Mack as an outside edge rusher, just as much as I would Clowney. 

 

I just see the Texans going the route of QB.

Mayock said he'd take Mack first overall, so you're not alone there.

      Boy the flyers look good early. Lots of bad plays and slow start by our team. Hope that changes before the score changes.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By strato · Posted

      I guess I should have stipulated outside the sacred cow.   I complained from year one that Bryce should compete for and win the starting job on his own merit but no he was just handed it. I have been right there with everyone that wants competition.  But I don’t really have a huge problem with it for this season the way it has gone because where are the viable people we don’t have to trade for? I actually am okay with tiny hands Pickett because he is so close to Bryce arm strength wise and to be honest, skill wise. Probably. And it is only a one year deal.  That also takes into account that the QB class is looking stacked next year and if Young fails miserably then we get either a reset or a real competition and there will be more guys that I would like looking at in the FA QB class next year as well.    I sort of accept where we are this year and look at it as another treading water year (at QB). I just want to get to next year with some clarity. More than anything. And they did empty out the room. Again, who was really there for us?  And I know it would not be a true competition at this point anyway. They are giving him the year, like it or not.    Also I don’t give a poo about winning games IF he sucks and or goes down after sucking because draft position and that stacked QB class.  And I want out from under him So Bad.     So I guess it is several factors that lessen my anxiety over his backup this particular season.    I am not trying to convince anyone, but you asked. That’s how I look at it.
