0:00-2:59......stop there....don't listen to the c00n and his troll partner

Has bust written all over him
Nobody should take him in the first round
Any body that does that the head coach and coaching staff and GM will be fired in 2 years
Will not pan out in the league
Graded him as a 6th round pick
If anybody drafts him in the first 3 rounds we need to look into your ability to evaulaute talent

2 years later

Bust
Nobody should have taken him in the first round
Mike Pettine Fired along with his coaching staff. Ray Farmer the GM fired
Looks like Johnny Manziel is on his way out the league

what did he say about Clowney?
Great athlete...but terrible work ethic and no passion or genuine love for the game. Plays with no leverage, doesn't use his hands and has no discipline in terms of his responsibility in the structure of the defense. The same shyt I've been screaming since he came out of high school. His actual ability to play football at a fundamental level doesn't exist. I saw Clowney busting a mile a way. Hodge said Mack was a million times the player Clowney would ever be...dude was right on the money.



***Let me add this...look at Clowney's HS tape and compare it with the Rashan Gary kid who they say is the best prospect since Clowney. Watch how Gary plays with his hands...how advanced his technique is and how much skill he has already developed as a DT/DE. Clowney was/is about using his speed to generate power and that's it. He has nothing else to offer in terms of skill set.

Skip was advocating the #1 pick, wow. Just wow


Skip has been a clown with zero credibility for the longest time

I don't know why anyone takes anything that he says seriously

They need to just move on from First Take altogether and replace it with something else.. that show has run it's course

Skip should go write articles for the sports version of the Onion

Clowney didnt grade out as great athletically as ppl were expecting. Mack was a better athlete.
