Sully80 Posted March 14, 2019 Share Posted March 14, 2019 Glazer has reported teams are calling about him and Frank Clark. Time for Jets to get their EDGE guy. He's 26, has only missed 4 games in the past 3 seasons. Took him a couple years to figure it out but he's now posted back to back 9 sack seasons, in a Williams defense he could flourish and realize his untapped potential. If you put any stock into PFF, he was a top 10 EDGE defender this past year and looked great against the Jets last year. Deal makes sense with Mac's connections to Houston and being a part of the regime that drafted him #1 overall. Give the Texans #3 for Clowney and their 1st round pick, this is essentially the equivalent of trading 3 second round picks to Houston as far as chart value goes, maybe you can squeeze a third out of the Texans but I doubt it. Take #23 and address OL or WR. We get our pass rusher and still have a first rounder to toy with. Discuss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think Jets are signing Houston, they've had a lot of time to sign Houston, before FA started, after Barr spurned us and after the Bell signing. I think Houston is going elsewhere and Jets are done making big FA moves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Being 30 years old doesn’t make you old..especially at certain positions. Cam Wake has had double digit sack seasons at 35. Julius Peppers? And plenty of others too. As far as overrated goes? That’s definitely wrong as hell. justin Houston has put up 9.0 and 9.5 sacks in the last two years. We’re talking about a guy who has accumulated 20 sacks in a season before. This overrated crap is solidly wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

derp Posted March 14, 2019 Share Posted March 14, 2019 Too much for Clowney. Equates his value to between the seventh and eighth picks. The Jets could do 3 for 23, 54, 55 and Clowney and it’d still value Clowney as a late first round pick, 24-25. That’s a trade I’d do but couldn’t see the Texans doing at all - just because the value in the draft that high is edge rushers and that’s what they’re trading away in Clowney. Ford went for a future 2. I’d start there. I like the idea of bringing Clowney in but don’t think it makes sense to give up too much. I think the third pick is too valuable.

Moving from3 to 23 is dropping 3-4 tiers of talent in the first rd. Clowny would not be enough for me to do that. Add to it that it’s pay day for him as well. I like the player but that’s a looong leap backwards. It would take the third and more for me. Maybe I’m off here but that’s my initial take. For comparison, Dee Ford was had for a 2nd straight up. Bennett was had for a 5th. Sent from my iPhone using JetNation.com mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barry McCockinner Posted March 14, 2019 Share Posted March 14, 2019 I wanted Clowney as a free agent if he made it there but I don't like giving up draft capital for him and a big contract. Just pay Houston and go o-line heavy in the draft if possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MDL_JET Posted March 14, 2019 Share Posted March 14, 2019 I'd rather Frank Clark over Clowney. Clowney can't even hit double digit sacks with Watt across from him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The value is the picks it would take to move up into the top 5, it's the equivalent of 3 second round picks, maybe you could squeeze something else out of Houston in a deal.

Why would we do this trade? Because it's getting you your pass rusher of the future and a first round pick to help the offense. Trading down would most likely take you out of the Bosa/Allen sweepstakes and it's unlikely we'd get another 1st this year while being able to still draft Bosa or Allen. Doing this trade gives you the best of both worlds, young EDGE guy and some 1st round help for Sam. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BroadwayRay Posted March 14, 2019 Share Posted March 14, 2019 I'd rather take my chances with Bosa or Josh Allen than waste draft picks on Clowney, who is a bit overrated and has an uncomfortable injury history. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is completely possible that Kyler Murray goes 1 to Zona, and the Giants could trade up to 2 for Haskins leaving Bosa falling in our lap. Worse case Murry is the only QB that goes and we get Josh Allen. I'll keep the pick and get a young cheaper guy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

varjet Posted March 14, 2019 Share Posted March 14, 2019 I don’t think Mac is giving up draft picks for expensive players this year with as many holes as this team has. That is what you do next year. The Bears traded for Mack in Trubitsky year 2, but their roster last year was better than the Jets is now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honestly it's not a bad idea could add an elite edge and give Mac the chance to draft a Center. Clowney and Mosleys contracts would be looming down the road though. I'd atleast make the call because idk if Houston can afford the massive contracts their 3 stars are going to command (Hopkins,Watson and Clowney) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not wasting draft picks, just trading back. Our 1st for their 1st and Clowney. Definitely has the ACL injury and a history of being injury prone but he's only missed 3 games in the past 3 seasons.
