Isnt he the DE who had 1 good year and now wants 20 mil per?

He's horrible against the run.

That alone disqualifies him being a possibility for this scheme.

Running his mouth towards the owners son in a twitter rant exempts him even more

We still have a ton of cap to make a trade/big signing. Agree about not wanting the overrated Jag DE, but Thuney, Chris Jones or Clowney would all be nice.

No on Thuney.
paying 12+M on a OG isn't smart business and especially drafting 2 of them. BQ didn't value GG @10M

No on Clowney
Drafting Okwara negates this need (imo) and then the (?) of his reliability health wise. He missed 4 reg season games this year but only 1, 0, 2 2018-2016. One year flyer. okay

Chris Jones makes more sense to me as he's more versatile, better run defender and there is no one on the iDL that is close to him from a skillset. Big DE down to 0-tech with 0,1 and shade in a limited amount per game.

Did I ever mention before that I was a Chris Jones homer but completely unbiased towards the other two.

I would take Jones at this point as long as the price stays around 17 or 18 mil. Normally I would not pay that much but he is probably the best all around D-lineman and we only have Hand and Shelton and neither is costing much.

I wouldn't give a $@^* if it costs 60M guaranteed money on a 4-5 year plan even if the total contract reads 100M.

It's not my money. So.

He's the best possible option.

This defense would be upgraded instantly and dramatically.

Give them this year to get it together (if there is NFL this year)
