I feel like Jadaveon Clowney is the defense version of Andrus Peat. Flashed potential, not consistent, always hurt. I am glad we did not somehow end up being able to draft Jadaveon Clowney because if we did, he would probably still be on the team, maybe making about 3x the $2.5 million I am glad we passed on Clowney for, and we would be praising him for agreeing to take a pay cut and help defer the $20 million in dead money we would owe if he moved on, and bragging about how many 1st round picks we had on our dline.

They are very similar players. Both born in 1993. Both somehow made 3 pro bowls based on the reputation of the offense/defense they played for, while never been seen as dominant players in the pros. Both tend to play more than half the season but always miss games, creating chaos in their rotations, and often playing and producing at less than 100%. Peat has played Guard and Tackle, Clowney has played DE and OLB. I think if we had not been fools resigning Peat, he would have bounced around the league to a new team every year just like Clowney, and would probably sign for around $2.5 million this year.
