Why spend money on safeties. They're easily replaceable and often overvalued. He is a great player, don't get me wrong, but idt Whaley wants to pay guys that kind of money.
"Mario Williams never dominated games or was a lynchpin in a great defense or organization."
Maybe it's just me, but the lack or respect this guy gets is unbelievable. Sure, he doesn't put up JJ Watt numbers but he is undoubtedly the best player on what I believe to be a great defense. Numbers don't tell all.
Numbers are numbers. Maxx is smooth and athletic where as I feel JJ appears stiff and mechanic. The numbers are intriguing, but I think Maxx is a by far better option.
That being said, a later pick might be wirth it for JJ

I feel like we'd be settling with him at TE.
Yolo, Maxx/Clive or bust...
