Over 29 years of fanhood Posted March 28, 2019 Posted March 28, 2019 Is he worth the contract he’s gonna get? That’s a very hard question. Remember there is a knee situation that may start acting up with mileage

Shortest distance is a straight line. Yes I think penetrating pass rushing DTs are going to become more valuable in the quick release NFL. 1
njbuff Posted June 4, 2019 Posted June 4, 2019 If the Texans and Clowney continue to be at an impasse, the value will be going way down. If any team waits it out, it could be a third rounder at most. I don't know if the Bills will be in on it, but Clowney's skill set is a perfect fit for McDermott's D. We shall see.
John from Riverside Posted June 4, 2019 Posted June 4, 2019 I would not be against having him.....but the production numbers dont match the perceived value imo 1

Texans are in win now mode. They are trying to make a super bowl run with the squad and Clowney helps that. They can always tag him again next year at 19 mil or so

Mat68 Posted June 4, 2019 Posted June 4, 2019 How good do you think Buffalo is going to be? If they have plans of a playoff run you offer a 1 for Clowney. Assuming that's a percieved high pick and you feel it's a late first rder.

If you have to pay him 20 mill a year and have to give up a first rounder to boot.......................... it's a no go for Beane.
colin Posted June 4, 2019 Posted June 4, 2019 slam dunk for a 3rd. possibly 3rd and shaq. clown houghs oliver and star is a monster monster front 4. w the LBs we have behind them we'd do as well as we did last year in terms of yardage (#2) and allow way fewer red zone conversions, along w more sacks and turnovers. that kind of talent lets you be scheme diverse on D and actually be at an advantage (or not at a disadvantage) when facing the pats and other smart teams.

njbuff Posted June 5, 2019 Posted June 5, 2019 Maybe his personal production doesn't match the contract he wants, but what is his impact on the other 10 defenders on the field?

Well, I meant he can drop into zones, or occupy multiple blockers and anything in between. honestly, a lot of people will think this is a knock but it’d be shades of Mario. Just a big hulking athletic dude that doesn’t need to sell out on a pass rush to be impactful rushing. But can also drop in space too. What is funny though is I’ve never been around folks that care more about a RB pass blocking or wr run blocking but post Rex it’s almost bannable to say clowney can also hang in coverage 1

Couldn’t tell you. I bet you McBeane already knows the answer to it.
