With all this talk about the unreliable Aldon Smith and the unreliable Randy Gregory, what are the Cowboys waiting on to sign 2019 Pro Bowler Jedeveon Clowney. He was the no.1 player out of High School, no.1 player out of college, and no.1 overall draft pick.The man was a 4-3 RDE in college and is only 28 years old. Jerry Dumbo GM Jones, here is your "War Daddy"!

Have we forgotten this...

Yes, you did miss quite a bit. He hasn't been good the last couple of years and has never been great during his NFL career. He had a couple of good seasons and that pro-bowl was in 2018, not 2019. Everyone has forgotten what he did in college just like every other player who has been in the league for several years. Teams don't want him for the price that he wants.

Mickey is here!

Its the Mickey Spags school of journalism lol....state the obvious over and over until maybe you are proven right. Which he rarely ever is. Hes a jerk. He really has no clue about how free agency and team building works. In his mind free agency doesnt matter because as he says "why are they available." How asinine. Someone needs to tell Mick teams have what we call a cap, and SOMETIMES teams choose not to pay them or they simply cant afford them. Its not as simple as what he wants you to believe.

Love Kerrigan.He would be a smart signing if hes available.

He is visiting with Cleveland by the way.

Would be interesting to see Garrett and Clowney work together.

Same problem as always with Clowney. He only plays hard when he wants to and that is primarily when money is on the line. The fact that he couldn't put together a good season last year when he knew he was gonna be on the market again should raise the question of "Is he able to play at a high level even when motivated?"

We've already got too many players just collecting checks. No need to add another.

no thank you

Clowney's rookie year and 2020 COVID year did Clowney not play in at least 13 games. How many games did Aldon Smith, David Irving, and Randy Gregory miss the last 7 years?

Then we are wasting time with "Achilles Heal" Hooker, Neal, and doing that Kazee stuff?

When you have a 28 year old former no.1 overall pick that was a Pro Bowl player in 2019, you sign him just to show you are actually trying to improve your defense and win a Super Bowl. Clowney has played out of position as a OLB in a 3/4 for all his career excluding the SeaHawks in 2019. Bring him in to prove the obvious is not true.

There is a big difference between taking a shot on a low dollar contract and a high dollar one. BTW, Clowney was last a Pro Bowler in 2018, not 2019.

No I did not miss anything...but Arlington Jonesboys fans missed that Clowney was a Pro Bowler 2016-2018 (3 times) and Pro Bowl alternate 2019 season. Again he has more than quadrupled the number of games played by Aldon Smith and Randy Gregory during that same period missing only his rookie year and 2020. He played hands on the ground 4-3 high school through college and in Seattle.

Now understanding why they are waiting on the unavailable and the unreliable players like Aldon Smith and Randy Gregory is what I am missing.
