    What about trading for Le'Veon Bell? Our offense would be unstoppable.

    Billy would find a way to ruin or misuse him too. Tell him @Bobbythegreat

    Bell wouldn't take BOB's **** and would refuse to show up, just like he's refusing to show up now.

    Lol so Clowney is now the new Jacoby Jones... let's blame it all on him. This team needs to address the real issues.

    Clowney’s value is not as high as some of you may think

    exactly -- It's not time to trade Clowney because his value is muddied by his historic and current injuries. This team isn't going anywhere this year, so hopefully we can resign him below market.

    I'm still all for a trade if the texans could get some quality in return. I think the money it will take to resign him would be best used spread out over other needs.

    They've got the 3rd most cap space next year. The Texans have money to spend.

    Probably John.

    Le'Veon a good player, working hard, getting better every day. Good running back, should add a lot to our RB room. Good group of guys, fun bunch to coach.

    Are you going to pay Bell 16 million a year for 4 or 5 years? Hell NO. He will be 27 at the start of the new contract.

    No way trade Clowney. But might have to start looking at Whitney side eye. Especially if Duke keeps improving.
    Clowney
    Cunningham
    Badger
    Bmac
    Reader
    And Duke and Reid
    Will be the cornerstones of the defense.

    Just throwing it out there. Both these guys are going to get big dollars either way.

    If you had to pay one .... who gives you better play in the next 3 years?

    It’s hard for me to pay a running back as well.

    but they do not need to have tied up in 3 players Watt, Nuk, and Clowney. I rather resign Honey Badger, improve the o-line, and spread the rest out.

    The beauty is they can do all that. The extra 2nd round pick helps. And Watt will be coming off the books soon.
