Then, they got back Tunsil and Stills for a haul of draft picks. It seems to me that they gave away a TON for a couple of guys that would best be described as "solid". Tunsil was supposed to be a part of the predicted worst line in the NFL in 2019. Stills is a guy that averaged less than 50 receptions and 700 yards per season in his NFL career, although he at least appears to be able to stay healthy...an issue for Texans WRs.
I think the Texans got a lot worse, and they gave away TWO first round picks and a second. I, for one, am glad to see that they won't likely be a contender this season although it would have been nice to not see Clowney in Seattle colors.
Good news for us is we play the Dolphins who have a CFL talent type roster in 2019. So, one easy road win.
I know Clowney was supposed to be all world, but look at what he was traded away for, it tells you he is not as good as many think (but, Seattle did have to factor in his almost 1 year ONLY guaranteed contract and he could bolt for big bucks in 2020 easily).
Also, better to see him in Seattle week 1 with no time to be acclimated and no training camp than week 3 or later in my opinion.
I am so ready for 2024 season. I love pro football and hoping for a great Bengals year. Regardless, always remember it is a game and entertainment.
