Quote:1. It wouldn't have been us because we would just take clowney at 1. Which isn't good because based on the ol' last name meter...clowney is going to be a bust.

2. Again, you can't control other teams. You can only do your best with your picks and hope your talent evaluators earn their money.

3. Those "pointless wins" we had. Established a winning culture and a progressive movement making the jaguars more attractive to others in the NFL. It gave us a shot at Alex Mack. It made other free agents WANT to be here. That's documented.

4. If the Texans take teddy #1 then ill come on here and say how smart you are because you've been saying for almost a year that they tanked for teddy. Anyone else or a trade down to 3 and they still don't take him will just cement you as the fool you are.

5. Do you think he just writes down these troll ideas when he has a little free time and saves them for a rainy day?

 

sigh....for Achilles....

 

1. you don't know that.

 

2. Right, you can't control other teams per se....but by finishing with the top pick you give your OWN team the most options, one being trading. In a way, you are manipulating the rest of the league by giving yourself more opportunities. For instance, the Falcons know that if they want Clowney, they likely have to now trade with Houston. 

 

4. Teddy appeared like that was their goal in tanking because back at that point Teddy seemed like the best value of anything. Now 2 days before draft day, the best value is trading down for a windfall of picks - in which at 6, they might still get Teddy anyway. The point is you tank so you can ultimately be the team that winds up with the best opportunity of getting THE MOST VALUE on draft day.
