diamondbull424 Posted September 5, 2020 Share Posted September 5, 2020 Getting a feeling that we are the team to sign Clowney. Too good a fit and we’re known as a ferocious defense historically. Also we’ve got Lamar. I still remember all those Seahawks defenders all gushing about Lamar last year. Quote Clowney: “I always wanted to play against Michael Vick,” Clowney said. “I guess I’m getting the new era with Lamar Jackson right there. I’m a fan of him though. He’s still a great player, did his thing today and won the game.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tried to speak it into existence. Good fit with the Titans as well. Similar defense. Probably makes more sense there considering he’s already familiar with their defensive scheme having played with Vrabel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DreamKid Posted September 5, 2020 Share Posted September 5, 2020 Happy to see Alaka made the team. We'll see if he lasts the season, but I'm glad he's with us. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drd23 Posted September 5, 2020 Share Posted September 5, 2020 If that roster Hensley posted is true, it means the end of the "UDFA makes the opening roster" streak ☹️ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AFlaccoSeagulls Posted September 6, 2020 Share Posted September 6, 2020 At this point I do not want Clowney. He's just milking this for every last penny possible, and that's not the kind of player this team goes for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

An enjoyable unique streak that brought that one little extra layer of intrigue to every Preseason. At least there's a Covid asterisk...😑 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it was Aaron Donald though, I wouldn't care if he waited until one minute before kickoff Week 1 🤣. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DreamKid Posted September 6, 2020 Share Posted September 6, 2020 Remember when Le'veon Bell and his agent created all that fake smoke about him coming to Baltimore? Even though it made no sense for us, yet the Jets bought into it... Dummies were negotiating against themselves. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baltimoreRebel Posted September 6, 2020 Share Posted September 6, 2020 You know who's happier about this than me? Every single Ravens journalist who'd be swamped with questions daily about Clowney. Would I have welcomed him? Yeah, sure. Did I care either way? No. Glad he's finally signed and we can move on. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DreamKid Posted September 6, 2020 Share Posted September 6, 2020 Titans are the only team rumored in the "Clowney Hunt" that actually have more cap space than us.... Boy, the Saints really carry the "Cap Space isn't real" theory to the extreme don't they? lol Seahawks are strapped too. If he just wants the money, and doesn't think anyone else will emerge, then he should just sign with the Titans and be done with it. Titans: $20,576,083 Seahawks: $9,241,863 Saints: $3,725,357 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coordinator0 Posted September 6, 2020 Author Share Posted September 6, 2020 Just to get a visual of the moves today: Nothing real surprising. The team is a little heavy along the DL and ILB though with the secondary being thin. For TE my guess is the team heavily utilizes the new provision about activating someone from the practice squad. Keep two or three of them on there and just bring up whatever one is needed for that week. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DreamKid Posted September 6, 2020 Share Posted September 6, 2020 I hope Jaleel gets a chance elsewhere. Kid has talent, and he went from a disaster IR stash Rookie year to a dominant Preseason showing that forced him onto our roster last year. He's made great strides as a STer too. I love his work ethic and am pulling for him to find a place in the league. And if not on our Practice Squad, then hopefully someone else's.

If he’s still practice squad eligible, I’d love to bring him back. I think an offense that would be a great fit for his skillset would be over in Green Bay.
