Quote:Don't worry I didn't anymore than the idiots who questioned Clowney's motor or questioned his love for football. All he had was his eye on the prize and protected himself his last year in college..he should've been allowed to come out so I can't blame him. By all accounts he was one of the hardest workers in camp and he's ahead of schedule on his rehab.

He'll never be the player we thought we drafted, but neither will fowler and that sucks. Clowney will still make plays though due to his athleticism.. He just won't be the super star we thought we were getting and neither will fowler

Thanks for actually sharing your thoughts, and you may be right about both players. At this point, if I'm putting money on it, I would agree with you about both players being more likely to not meet expectations because of their respective knee injuries. I would have a hard time picking Clowney over Fowler, not because of talent (Clowney has way more of it), but because I believe a microfracture surgery is more serious than an ACL in nature. At the same time, I could see Clowney being even or slightly better than Fowler in terms of production, because he's that talented.


There's just no such thing as a sure thing in the NFL.
