They also traded for Carlos Hyde and a CB from the Pats.

I had actually heard John McClain this morning, saying Clowney wanted to go to the Eagles to play in their wide 9. Made me perk up and wonder if we might be a potential interest too. Seeing this trade, I kinda wish we'd made a phone call. A 3rd and 2 LB's that were potential cuts anyway, I'm sure we could have come up with something. Bosa and Clowney at DE, and Dee Ford at Sam. Could have moved on from Arik Armstead and his 9mil easily, then.

Would tooooooo much money spent on the D-line. They still need to pony up for Buckner and maybe even Armstead too.

Too bad Texans didn't need a backup Qb or DL help. Wish we could have done some fleecing.

Are we really going crazy about a dude that has averaged 5.5 sacks/year getting traded for a 3rd? Take away his draft status and we would all say yeah that sounds about right. He's played next to JJ watt his whole career, let's not pretend he's been a huge difference maker in Houston.
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
