Quote:The Rams are a bit of a wild card. Who knows what they're going to do.

The minute the last down was played in the regular season and the non-playoff draft order was set you can be sure that Clowney's representatives were already in touch with the Texans to assure them they'd be dance partners this year.

 

Read this for what it is:

I dare you to open the draft by selecting Johnny Manziel.


Lord knows, the Texans need some Johnny Football. The NFL is a passing league now, which is a reason Bill O'Brien is the new coach, and Manziel can sure sling it. He's the most exciting quarterback in the draft, a rock star with the added value of making Bob McNair's easy-to-ignore franchise matter on the national scene like it never has.


Sure, Manziel — not built as solidly as another short quarterback with whom he is compared, Russell Wilson — looks as though he can be snapped in half by one Gregg Williams-designed double blitz.

 

Clowney's people want the Texans to believe that it's their pick to negotiate and if the Texans do not obey, they'll be sorry.

The Rams and the Jaguars are buddies.
