You are the same guy who said the same thing about Mario Williams and he had five sacks in five games, looked quite dominating as well, before he suffered a season-ending injury in 2011.


Yet he took off the first chance he got. Besides, 4 of those sacks came in 2 games... 2 of those games he didn't do jack shit.

You probably also think Ware should stay at DE, just because he can play there huh?

Be happy if they take clowney, should give you guys a better shot at which qb you want


We'll take Clowney if he's there and we'll play him where he is meant to play.

Exactly. Hako wants Teddy Bridgewater to fall to the third pick but all he does is laugh and mock the possibility of the Texans drafting Jadeveon Clowney or Johnny Manziel. The Texans were a 12-4 team two seasons ago. I'd worry more about the Jaguars and how far away they are from having another winning season. The Texans still have a lot of talent to work with. It's not like they are in a totally bad position. Just some luck staying healthy with guys like Arian Foster and Brian Cushing would make a world of difference.

Four sacks in two games is pretty impressive for a guy who you said was laughable playing as an outside linebacker.
I believe Jadeveon Clowney is more athletic than Mario Williams ever was. He can play 4-3 or 3-4, DE or OLB, IMO.

Idk, I just don't see him getting past the 2 spot with St. Louis having the luxury of being able to trade back 4+ spots and still getting the OT they want. I also think if St. Louis stays at 2 they take clowney

"Two seasons ago"

I'm not worried at all about my Jags, considering the arrow is pointing way, way up for us.

I mock the possibility of you guys drafting Clowney and standing him up as a 3-4 OLB. A position he has never played in his entire life.

We don't know that though. People are just speculating he'd be moved to outside linebacker in a 3-4 defense. I'm just suggesting if that is what Romeo Crennel wants to do. I would trust his judgement. He's won three Super Bowls in four years as a defensive coordinator before. People still regard him as one of the best defensive coordinators in the history of the game. He would put J.J. Watt and Jadeveon Clowney in a position to succeed. The Texans should draft the best player available which is Jadeveon Clowney. Let the coaches worry about how to play them after that. Isn't that why they get paid the big bucks to coach?

You said he was looking dominant at the OLB. I'm sorry, but a guy who looks dominant doesn't go 2 straight games without a single sack.. Hell, he only had 3 tackles both of those games combined.

He definitely could, nobody denies that.... That doesn't mean he should....... There's a reason why guys like Mario Williams and Julius Peppers go to teams that play the 4-3...

Another thing, please show me all the 6'5, 270 pound OLBs playing in the NFL right now. Don't worry, I'll wait.

Let the Rams draft Clowney, that's fine. Continue to stack that Defense and fill up that salary cap with DEs. They'll need it when their Offense continues to only score 3 points a game.
