I would be shocked if he's in a Giants uniform come September.. me too. Has Lavar Arrington II written all over it.

He's a what could of been type player...I thought when he was drafted and they made him a 3-4 linebacker vs 4-3 DE with hand in the dirt...that hurt his development. He was never about coverage...he was about going forward and getting the QB or stuffing the run/edge....pressures and stopping any runner vs double teams was there when that hand was in the dirt. His latest injury and the previous 5000 of them...this covid might have made him a situational player at best, and who even knows if a team gives him a 1 year deal. Incentive laden...1 year low cost...risk reward might be there. The "only" positive he has going for him is the fact this edge class is so weak. His injuries are the reason teams have stopped any long term contracts....not so much his actual play when healthy. Yeah ignoring all the injuries it really does highlight how important where you get drafted is. He happened to go to a team with an MVP level defender in JJ Watt with a D created around his strengths. They were not going to change the D for some rookie, no matter how promising. So he had to move to LB and we see what happened. I agree for sure if he went to a 4-3 defense some place and was just allowed to be a DE he would have been much better off.
Someone will sign him though, Clowney for the vet minimum? Sounds like exactly what the Bucs would do and he'd get 4 sacks in the AFC Championship game.

After the draft I would take another look at Clowney.i In the draft we could get younger, healthier, and cheaper players with the same potential. lets see if we as much as a long shot it is we might trade back, or come back up into the 1st rd perhaps to get a player later in the round. Even in the 2nd rd there will be players to consider.
We would have a much better feel if Clowney can fit in or not. There could even be a late cut by someone. Clowney didn't sign last year to just before the season. Don't see no rush of teams banging on his door.
