00:00What if I told you, Brian, what if I told you that a 6'5", 270-pound,
00:10former number one overall pick, edge rusher, just hit free agency?
00:17Who is that?
00:18Jadavion Clowney just got released by the Panthers.
00:21Now, I'm not saying this is an answer to our prayers.
00:25Okay.
00:26Clowney's 32, 5 1⁄2 sacks last year in 14 games.
00:31Did have 9 1⁄2 two years ago playing for the Ravens.
00:36Clowney has never had double-digit sacks, which is pretty remarkable.
00:41I actually called my shot on Clowney, and nobody wanted to hear it way back when.
00:46Ask Chase Hughes.
00:47We had a wager on this.
00:48I never thought Clowney was going to be the dominant force people did in the NFL.
00:53He's just a little bit too much of a tweener.
00:55But he's been good, and for a team that's been damn good.
01:00He's been good.
01:02He's been good, but when you come in as like a situational guy, you get 9 1⁄2 sacks.
01:08That says a lot.
01:09Well, then is it a guy you want Washington to look at?
01:12I don't know if he – I think Clowney's at a point now where we're looking for somebody
01:17to play and keep playing for some years.
01:19We're not in the position for him to keep getting him.
01:22If they're going to add somebody at this point, odds are it's going to be somebody in this
01:28part of town, like the veteran that's been released.
01:31There's going to be more releases, too.
01:33I don't think we need to –
01:35You don't jump on the first one.
01:37Right.
01:37You can wait and see what's going to happen.
01:39Well, it's not going to cost you a tremendous amount.
01:41That's who's going to be coming available now.
01:46Frankly, I'm not surprised that Clowney became available.
01:48And I think the amount of tweets I get about Zedarius Smith and stuff, like this is where
01:59if Washington's going to be bringing in a free agent, that's what you're talking about.
02:03Von Miller, who's 36 years old.
02:06Preston Smith, who I know Preston well and really, really like him.
02:10I kind of wonder if he's not done.
02:12Zedarius Smith's 33.
02:13Matthew Judon's 33.
02:15I like Zedarius.
02:17Judon can get to the quarterback.
02:20I haven't really looked at how he is against the run.
02:22Judon last year in Atlanta wasn't great.
02:26Doesn't mean he's not great.
02:28What I love about Von Miller, Von Miller's a leader and he's a worker.
02:33He can help some guys.
