I find it hard to believe that the Bills linked to AB, Bell, and ODB getting leaked, but nothing about Clowney. OBJ stuff happened Last week. And it was reported when Today??? I get it I am taking the source with a grain of salt as well. But it is out there let’s see if it has legs.

Given this draft class, the loss of an extra pick and his cap cost....I would pass and take my chances on a young, cheap stud at #9 while trusting in our scouts. Grow with the young nucleus. But maybe that’s just me. 1

I really want to like the guy, I always have. He’s from my wife’s hometown and I’ve been hearing about him since HS. While he’s extremely talented, I just don’t think he ever fully lived up to it, especially having that D and JJ Watt to draw attention.

Not a single piece of insight or breaking information. I understand wanting this to be true, but there is zero chance no one of merit has picked this up. 6 minutes ago, SCBills said: Well, if true, it kinda just got leaked Leaked by a reputable source, not a no name on Twitter with 1,500 followers and only 23 tweets since 2015. None of which broke any Bills news.
JerseyBills Posted March 13, 2019 Posted March 13, 2019 Y'all came at me in the OBJ trade. I'm with Clowney all day though . We beat the Browns next year with our elite secondary

I mean, sure, but maybe set your bar a little higher for what you allow to generate your dreams? I mean, not trying to be a d.... I do know that there are user on these boards who dont know how Twitter necessarily works. Just want to clear the air that's all.

If they go to 23 they will have a chance to get Noah Fant or maybe even Hockenson or Wilkins. I’d rather have Clowney (and his salary) + Fant over Ferrell (for example) + a 4th. The money is irrelevant to the Bills. They have plenty now and lots moving forward.

Part of it may be me having hoped to see so much more out of Clowney, and part what else could you do. This draft is so deep in DL, he loses some value as you can get cheaper, younger options and spend more FA money where you need it. I’m not married to either approach, but I have reservations. Plus, that 4th has real value if, say, you want to move up in the 2nd for a guy you love. Edited March 13, 2019 by Augie

This draft is so deep in DL, he loses some value as you can get cheaper, younger options and spend more FA money where you need it. I’m not married to either approach, but I have reservations. The way they structured these contracts though they have plenty of flexibility. Nsekhe is going to be the RT. You’d still have the 23rd pick which is probably prime territory for an OT (Dillard, Ford, or Little). You may even have a shot at Jonah Williams there. If you are taking a pass rusher at 9 you are hoping he becomes a pro bowler. Clowney is already that. With Hughes being in the final year of his deal (and Shaq) you need a known quantity. I’m fine with Ansah too and am fine drafting one early. I just think it needs to be addressed. 1

I'd love it He is very Versatile, he can play all over the line and can also play OLB. If this happens I will go crazy. He is perfect for our Defense and he is a stud!
