I mean...what’s it take to motivate this guy.
That's basically it.
Dude killed it for a few games in college, achieved top-of-the-draft status, then mailed it in. As a pro, he's been inconsistent at best. Hell, Dee Ford came from that same draft. Has he even played in as many games as Ford or produced as much as him?
Honestly, fuck Clowney. The old Chiefs used to go gaga over "BUT TEH POTENSHUUUUL" guys like him. The new Chiefs don't have time for losers like Clowney. Either you're good or you're not, and if you're not, you better be fucking cheap. [Reply]
Yeeeaaahhh... I'm gonna say fuck this dipshit. He's been talking about dollar figures all offseason, and all we've been MAYBE looking for is an extra boost to our pass rush.
He wants a payday, we want a cheap capstone to an already established product.

Fuck Clowney
Let's see what Taco Charlton and an ascending K Pass can do next to Jones and Clark. I'm fine with that. [Reply]

He's not that great. Why does everyone want to throw a bunch of money at him? He's just a complimentary piece.
While I agree with this, I can understand Spags' interest (if there really is any interest). With the Giants, he had those four pass rushers that basically won them the Super Bowl, and Clowney lined up next to Jones and Clark would be a force. [Reply]
We did fine with "just enough" at that other DE spot all year. Hell, Ogbah led the team in sacks for the first several games of the season. He was averaging 1 or 2 per game until he got hurt.
Okafor was fine as well. Did about what we expected him to do. And obviously after that, we had Suggs.
I'm fine with Okafor if he stays healthy. And in the event he's hurt, it's not like we don't have options. Spags is constantly rotating linemen as it is, and I'd like to see Jones get some more snaps at end on early downs.
The #Saints are sending an all-out blitz to try to sign Jadeveon Clowney, who has spoken multiple times to coach Sean Payton, sources tell me and @RapSheet. At least two other teams still involved as Clowney's extended free-agent saga nears a close.
