Uncle Bob praises Clowney.

Looks that way to me too. Not really that excited about it. He essentially took last season off. That is a turn off from a motivational standpoint. Maybe the Texans can fire him up, but he would not be my pick. Now if he comes alive in the pros, great, but I have doubts. Feels like another Mario Williams pick, a workout wonder with amazing skills, nagging injuries, and motor issues.

 

I'll ignore the fact that you are still rolling with tired, disproved rhetoric because I doubt pointing that out for the hundredth time will change anything but I will take exception to the Mario comparison. First of all, they don't have all that much in common and it's an incredibly flawed comparison. Secondly, even if it was a legitimate comparison, the Texans would JUMP at an opportunity to draft Mario and have him on a rookie deal for 5 years next to Watt.

 

Sounds like Mel Kiper finally got around to watching Clowney's film.

Skip Bayless is moron

 

I just love the guy that keeps posting stuff in every thread. We get the point you dont like manziel so stop.

 

Skip Bayless is an absolute moron

 

Skip likes to be controversial, but he didn't say Clowney would be a bust.

 

Someone should publicly slap Skip Baseless every time he says something stupid. That will be one sore hand LoL

 

Skip is absolutely controversial, but is right more often than not.

 

Not terribly familiar with all of his stances, but doesn't he think Lebron is the worst clutch player ever, Tebow is a great QB, and Chris Paul doesn't deserve max money?

 

Basically think of the worst, least intelligent possible stance on any given issue and more times than not, that will be his take.

 

Ding ding ding

 

What a amazing post. You are right. Clowney is a workout wonder and has never played a decent game of football in his life.

 

Clowney was the best D lineman in the country his sophomore year.

 

its easy to be right when you play both sides of the fence like skip does so much..

 

im hoping the addition of clowney can get merci going..

 

I assume you want the Texans to draft Clowney with the first choice. Fine. But, why is Mario a bad comparison? I just don't think the fact that Clowney "took off" his last year at SC to protect himself is a positive. Football is a violent high risk sport. Injuries happen. I would have been more impressed if had gone all out for this team. Mario didn't do that as best I can recall, but he was a "work out" wonder with "motor" issues. It is all opinion. None of us really know what the Texans should do because no one knows the future of any draft pick.

 

SMH, he didn't "take off" last year....
