Ware is going to be cut from the Cowboys. Sign Ware, draft Clowney...and now you have yourself a trio of Watt, Ware, and Clowney.
First I don't care if you are "fine" with my opinion, as you have repeatedly proven to be long on arrogance but short on knowledge. Concerning Kollman and a "rotoworld" article, it really means little as there are a number of "experts" and ex players that question Clowney's performance and motivation. Mayock, Brooks and Sapp only in the last day or two. That doesn't count other college players in his same conference and numerous scouts. If the Texans due their due diligence and decide to pick him, I will support the decision. Having said that, he did not have a good sophomore season in relation up his talent. You can act as if his **** on your nose doesn't stink, but it does.
Ware sucks; I live in Dallas so I would know. I applaud him for playing through his injures but he's just not that guy anymore. Could he succeed with a change of scenery? Perhaps, but don't put all your eggs in one basket for him
I just posted those two articles as a learning exercise to help you contribute more intelligently when it comes to football discussion, not to say that the opinion of those specific "experts" was the end all, be all. I was hoping you'd learn some principles about football that you seem to be lacking, and Kollmann's piece was part film study, so I was hoping you'd read up and learn some of the things to look for when watching film so that you'd know what you were watching because it seemed that you had issues in that department. Talking about the opinions of other "experts" is one thing, we could throw differing "expert" opinions at each other all day long and it wouldn't mean anything, I was trying to help you learn something giving you a more educated opinion so you could do a better job of thinking for yourself. If you learn what the "experts" are looking for, you can look for yourself instead of having to wait for them to do it for you.
Translation: "Blah blah blah I don't know what I am talking about but don't like being questioned. I will attempt to act arrogant to cover my complete lack of knowledge and insecurity. It seems to work for BigTexxx so maybe it will work for me." I am done with you.
A lot of people are going to bristle at this, but if you could *guarantee me* my 1st round draft pick will kick ass and take names for his first 4 years with a distinct possibility he will mail it in after his 2nd contract... I'm probably going to take that all day every day. So many top picks flame out. To be assured 4 years of great production is above average for return on a 1st rounder.
Watch "Blake Bortles (QB UCF) vs South Carolina 2013" on YouTube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WYd29xlmc04&feature=youtube_gdata_player Here's a learning exercises for you Bobby. Watch the tape. And particularly pay attention to Clowney when he's being blocked one on one like the 7:45 mark in the tape along with other times. Also watch how SUPER SLOW Blake Bortles escapes the Track Star Clowney's pressure. Understand that S. Carolina is a "Mighty SEC" school lead by The Old Ball Coach playing against a AAC school who was completely out matched talent wise.
I have been against CLowney all year but now that we are getting closer to draft day Im starting to warm up to the idea of drafting him... really I'm just hoping we don't draft Manzel or freaking Bortles. So basically its between Teddy B and Clowney for me, whichever BOB has confidence in.
I feel the same way too. I would love to get Teddy but a part of me wants the Texans to draft Clowney so that our D Line would be world class. I don't envy O'Brien with having to make this tough decision. The Texans HAVE TO nail this pick.
I like how everyone is ignoring Remii now, because he is a BOF and its weird because the guy he is a fan of...sucks so so much. #Clowney2014
BOF... Lol.. Not at all. I just have an unbiased opinion.. But that video is more about Clowney than it is Bortles. It's SO NOT TRUE that he gets doubled every snap because he had a lot of one on one matchups in that game and couldn't get by a no named AAC offensive tackle (weak bench press). But of course if you're a biased Clowney supporter you will ignore it.
I understand that you and others on this board believe that everyone on this board who doesn't agree with you is a troll... Just put me on ignore (like Bobby SAID he was going to do) and you will only see the post of the people who agree with you... Simple solution to your problem
