Your ability to decipher is amazingly low. Talk about moving goal posts... And thanks for letting me know you don’t call him Lorax. It’s a comparison that doesn’t change my point.

As a franchise tagged player after July 15th he has to play on he franchise tag. No teams can negotiate until after the last game of the season. He also has not signed his tender - so currently he can not be traded and rumor has it he has already blocked a trade to Miami. We will see where this goes. I have no idea why this dude is taking such a hard stance on this and he hasnt even looked into what hes talking about. If you come that hard, youd think youd at least get a clue before doing so. Weird. Thank you for pointing this out bc i dont think anyone else has the energy anymore. Not sure how he missed it one of the other 99,999 times its been pointed out..

Could have ended a lot of speculation. Unreal no one asked. Not sure what the protocol is between reporters and teams and practices but they may have inquired and have yet to get a reply.

Don't think anyone has speculated/rumored anything linking his name outside of TBD to a potential trade, but I just want to know why he was sitting in pads all day...forget the Clowney rumors.

I'll suffer a slight downgrade at right tackle for a big upgrade at D End. We would need to try and find a rotational tackle though. With Waddle done for the year.

I've seen plenty of Houston games. He benefits far more from Watt than vice versa. Depending on the cost though im all for it His most productive season was the one where Watt missed the whole season! He had 21 tackles for loss and led the league in tackles for loss/no gain to go with 9.5 sacks (2017). I just don't get some of the rhetoric here. People look at sack lines and nothing else.

You don't realize it is changing the subject but it is because your example of “Lorax” doesn’t change the main point that clowney will be here if and when they win a Super Bowl while Nsekhe and “Lorax” will be retired. It would probably be Ty AND a draft pick not just Ty Im on the fence on this one...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really?!? A 34 year old swing tackle and a draft pick for Clowney? This is a no brainer IMO. Clowney is in the backfield on every play and fits PERFECTLY into our defense. That defense will go from very good to the best in football (and potentially historically good). If the offense is decent (not even good) that team wins 10 games. They are a better version of last year’s Bears with a higher ceiling. They could legitimately contend for a Super Bowl.

HappyDays Posted August 14, 2019 Share Posted August 14, 2019 I don't care what local reporters say. No one on the Bills beat knew that we had even inquired about AB. I will say that no one should be surprised if Beane makes this happen. We were in on Mack last year and obviously on AB this year. He isn't afraid to make a big move for a premium player if the price is right. I would actually be more surprised if he HADN'T asked the Texans about Clowney. How far those discussions actually got, no clue, but there's a lot of smoke here. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
