I am %100 sure that we would all take that career out of Clowney at this point.

So you would blame the Texas for drafting someone who's career might be ruined because of injuries ? What was your thoughts about Clowney at the time of the Draft and the Texans decision to draft him back in May ?
As far as Mario goes, I'm pretty sure we just couldn't afford him.
