Once again people like to bring up players who were productive before they got drafted. Smith won the Outland trophy his last year in college.

That's a good need first round pick for someone but as an overall number one? I want the guy who commands double teams, not the guy who benefits.

I think Clowney will demand double teams as well, making that line devastating. But again, glad it isn't my decision to make. I am a fan of Clowney Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But again, glad it isn't my decision to make. I am a fan of Clowney We will only demand a double team if he shows he can perform against bigger, better and quicker players than he saw in college. He may but will he be motivated against players that will relentlessly beat on him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smith won the Outland trophy his last year in college. But Clowney was a productive player before he got drafted. As a sophomore, he had 13 sacks and 23.5 TFLs. As a junior, there was a combination of extra blockers on him (hence, Kelcy Quarles 9.5 sacks as a DT), doing his best to prevent injury (because he was a teammate of Marcus Lattimore who was considered such an explosive runner that there were talks of him as a top 10 pick even in this day and age), plus he still had 11.5 TFL.

Oh, so he didnt try on purpose? How come so many other top DE's that come out are productive with double teams while other teams game plan for them as well? That TFL stat doesnt put him in the top 100. Edited March 28, 2014 by RockRaines Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
