You lol but Clark and Clowney.......
Clark is now playing for the Kansas City Chiefs. Guess you didn't watch that preseason game.

Well repeating what others said, Clowney has never lived up to his potential and has never gotten over 10 sacks.
You mentioning fords sacks compared to clowneys is misguided at best because bc he has been injured two years (and wasn't a starter year one whereas Clowney was a starter). Especially since Ford was arguably the best pass rusher last year at creating turnovers as well as having the quickest first step in football.Again Clowney has never been able to get over 10 sacks Ford has done this twice. You mentioned their first round pick that was supposed to go in the second round or third round as having Huge upside? Seems like you are reaching here
Clowney is by far better against the run then Ford though. And a player's draft status shouldn't factor in at all 6 years into his career.

Chandler Jones still the best edge in the NFC West and its not close. He truly gets no respect.

Judging by last year's play Ford is a lot better not only at rushing the passer but at getting turnovers.
