The New New JaDeveon Clowney Thread

It’s a 3rd plus two defensive players unnamed. This is why teams have a gm ‍♂️

Yeah b/c the GM of the Steelers made out like a bandit for Antonio Brown...

I think we’re seeing a new era in how NFL players are going about their business...last year it was just Bell...this year we got 4 big time players holding out for new contracts....all of which say they were willing to miss game checks..

The next CBA agreement is gonna super vicious imo.

As for the trade....I’m not at all pleased...but I’m not tripping. This is BoB’s show and if it goes sideways, he doesn’t have anyone to blame but himself....of course I’m always gonna hope for the best on-field product. 1 player doesn’t make a team...no matter how elite....
 
Barkevious fuckin Mingo?? Good lawd....
Too bad I already have my trip to KC paid for.... I’m tempted to to just eat the money, but I’m gonna go drink and eat at the very least.
Smh at OB

A voice of reason. Right on.
 
Thi is the worst trade I can think of. Let him sit the entire year franchise him again and you can still get a third round pick. Giving in to extorsion by taking a couple of players Seattle was going to cut anyway is ridiculous. OB will not make it past this year. His unwillingness to replace his O-Line coach will cost him his job. Not getting one O-lineman for Clowney is an outright failure. The team will most likely cut one of the two new guys.

Just the other day you were saying they should have stopped all trade talks July 15th. Now that BO'b found a win/win it's because he HAD TO.


Did he not buy you dinner first? Is that why you mad? Forgot the lube? Didn't call?

How is that a win/win?? I said to stop trade talks because it would be better for the team this year and he wouldn’t be able to get anything in return and BOOM lookie here.

They didn’t have to trade him Bill OBrien was hell bent on doing so connect the dots bro.
 
O'Brien should be crucified in the media for this. And how does this make the team feel? Trading away a key contributor for nothing? It could be justified had the trade helped the team at a need position. How can this be justified?

It just went sideways. When your team is the laughing stock of the NFL things are bad. He just made an average team worse and did not help his franchise QB. He did not learn anything from the Andrew Luck Saga.
 
And O’Brien the OC will find a spot for them to play fullback or TE.
they must be cross trained to become good teammates.

How is that a win/win??

TK never have I attacked you in such a low brow manner. I thought you were better than that. Be well.
@thunderkyss thought the Texans were getting offensive linemen and a 1st round pick. There were a ton of rumors floating. What transpired was the absolute worst rumor.
 
The thing that should worry people is Cal McNair probably had to sign off on this deal. OB didn’t orchestrate this disaster all by himself.

Can’t fire ownership and doubtful O’Brien will get fired due to the predictable results of this terrible offseason. From inactivity in free agency to this trade, the Texans have bungled this entire offseason.

But I mean everyone knew the Texans were negotiating from a position of weakness. Rumors were that the Texans were going to have to go full blown Herschel Walker to get what they wanted.

Lol they didn’t even get an offensive lineman and that was the main gist to trade Clowney!

Ehh, According to some, we were already going down the shitter b/c of the tough schedule, BoB and the offense etc...and if we were just average with him as u say, then he likely wasn’t as great as we thought he was.

I’m not at all happy with this trade mostly b/c we didn’t land any o-lineman.. apart from that, i’ll Just wait to actually see what this team looks like next week.
 
I get all that but no agreement has been reached. He hasnt turned down anything tangible. Any player not agreeing to sign a tender can do what they want...except play football and earn a check. His leverage supposedly can stop a trade to a team he doesn’t want to go to but it also damn sure hasn’t gotten him an agreement to a team he doesn’t want to play for nor traded to a team he wants to go to. Didn’t even “leverage” an agreeable offer from them. He now appears in a weaker position than before. Why? Because the only real leverage is the Texans controlling his rights...and the leverage the other 31 teams can apply as to his value.


You asked what leverage he had. Well there you go.

HC/GM walks into owner's office.
Bill Almighty: Hey Junior. I'm getting rid of Clowney for a bag of practice balls.
Cletus: Whatever you say, Mr. O'Brien.
Bill Almighty: Damn straight it is.
Cletus: Do you need your boots licked while you're here?
Bill Almighty: Take a rain check. I have to trade 2 1st rounders to Belichick for a LT before he cuts him.
Cletus: Sounds great, Mr. O'Brien. We're behind you all the way.
Bill Almighty: Damn straight you are.
