DBilz2500 Posted August 26, 2019 Share Posted August 26, 2019 I have a feeling that if anything happens he either goes to the Eagles or Hawks. Both are seen as contenders, have franchise QBs, and have bigger markets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Victory Formation Posted August 26, 2019 Share Posted August 26, 2019 I question how smart it is to put our team in cap hell over a player like Jadeveon Clowney. Sure it may not be a problem now but when Tre, Allen and Edmunds are due it’ll be a problem then. Sure he’s a good player but will be grossly overpaid and how often do these moves pan out? It would be a nice pass rush but the only way you pay him $100m is based off of projection and not what he’s done.........risky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he doesn't, I don't see Clowney wanting to stick around through a coaching change, and another quest for a franchise QB, whether it be Tua, Justin Herbert, or Jake Fromm. Hey Corny - McDermott will be here for a while. Get used to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No one is offering what the Texans think they are owed. Has his grievance been heard yet? He has requested arbitration to decide if he is a DE or OLB. He was assigned OLB money for the Tag by the NFL and has countered that he is a DE - it is a difference of 2 million a year. Until that is decided - he can’t sign the franchise tag and he can’t be dealt. I think it is a waiting game until he gets all the pieces in a row.

Obviously I have ZERO idea what happens behind the curtain, but I wouldn’t want to raise a child that way. It just allows more of that behavior. I’ll say he’s been better for a while, and I really appreciate the mods and how they handle almost everything. Maybe that’s been part of the improvement. The abrasiveness and negativity is a shame, because I freely admit he knows a lot about football. Playing nice with others? Not so much. I don’t worry about offending him here, because he’s notified me multiple times I’m on IGNORE like the rest of the “house mum’s”. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BUFFALOTONE Posted August 27, 2019 Share Posted August 27, 2019 (edited) My gut tells me Houston is holding out for a first round pick or a franchise type player in return. LTs, DEs and QBs get paid the highest in the NFL and it will take a measure of a high value player with a high draft pick. The Bills just don’t have the equity and to be honest I’d rather ride with who they have now than mortgage a 1st round pick on Clowney. My money is on Seattle fwiw. They like these types of high priced vets and are devoid of a pass rush once Clark went to KC. Edited August 27, 2019 by BUFFALOTONE 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

papazoid Posted August 27, 2019 Share Posted August 27, 2019 first of all, Clowney is not signed by Houston. He effectively has a no trade clause because the team can’t trade him until he signs the tag. This means that not only does the acquiring team need to want Clowney, Clowney needs to want them Second of all, any team trading for Clowney couldn’t even give him the money he wants. After the July 15 deadline passed, a team can only trade for Clowney and let it ride. (essentially, he's a one year rental. highly doubt anyone meets their trade demands. he likely plays out this season with houston, gets tagged again and then traded before next years july 15th deadline) https://www.fieldgulls.com/2019/8/17/20810293/seahawks-trade-rumors-jadeveon-clowney-texans-franchise-tag-holdout-seattle-2019-preseason Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
