Quote:Why? If they come out after they make the trade and say something to the effect that they believe Clowney is a once in a lifetime player and will be in the HOF when his career is over........



How would that not be worth (1) 2nd round pick? What are you expecting that pick to turn into......

 

Because with that work ethic, Clowney is far from a sure thing. 

 

If Clowney actually had impeccable character and impeccable work ethic to go with the freakish athleticism that he has, combined with the Jags being seen as "one defensive player away...." then I'd at least understand the Jags making a move like that, but given what we've seen in that area this past year, the Jags would be fools to trade away a 2nd rounder in a deep draft to move up 2 spots - when they need more picks, not less.
