HOU-TEX
Ah, Football!
Hey I didn't throw you into the blind Clowney defender pool, you just jumped there.
His injury concerns alone make him a bigger risk than several other players. Putting aside the QBs Watkins and Robinson for instance are much safer picks. And I'm not saying Clowney is slag or does not have potential, he does. IMO his risks of injury primarily and then motivation mean other players would be better choices.
Agreed and I hope some team is willing to pay to move up
Given that Manning was not medically cleared to play 2011, you've presented a false analogy. In any event preparing for the future isn't the same thing at all as broadly as you have worded it. For instance the FA QB market sucked rocks this offseason. If the Texans don't like any of the draft QBs then even though QB is a giant need the team will be better built by waiting a year rather than forcing the need. That's not sucking just to protect yourself. It's playing the hand you were dealt.
When you want to grow up and take your cheerleading costume off you can come eat at the adult table.
infantrycak - who would YOU take #1 this year? I don't recall you saying who you would take. Lets go with the assumption we cannot trade out down, whose name is on that card?
I'm assuming the bolded above, which I have no problem at all
