Do we have the guts to go after Clowney?

Even if we win the SB, we have the ammo to move to one. Iupati isnt't going to sign for less than 8-9 mil a year. He still has contract time left 2014. Brooks is a very good starter with a very good contract (our front office is the best in the league with contracts look at Bowman's deal) is trade bait. Put those two players together and a combination of our first, second, and third round picks, I think we can get it done. The question is should we?

To move from 32 to 1 you would literally have to give up your entire draft + future picks or players. Clowney might be a "once a decade prospect" but only Matt Millen would ever trade from the playoff range of picks to #1.....

Depends on who's number 1
Raiders would like clowney or bridgewater, but I think mckenzie knows there are too many holes. Getting the 9ers top few draft picks (plus next years) and a player (iiupati) might be enticing

Not always, in a strong draft you always move down. Landing a probowl guard as compensation plus the chance to land 4 players is likely enough.

Do we really need him? Better yet, does he fit our scheme? We already have Aldon and Brooks plus Lemonier already looks like a beast. Sure Clowney would be a great pick up but we have more needs to potentially fill next year.

If the numbers are true he could easily be 280--290 in two years. D-Line is a very important position for us. We are looking at losing Smith and Ray Mac soon. You can always find WR and CBs in the draft.

I would not trade that many picks to move up to get him it's just not worth it were a good team already not worth giving up so much for one guy.

With Tomsula, I wouldn't be surprised if Tank ends up being the better player than Clowney, with whichever team he goes to...

If anything if there going to give up a lot to move up into the top 5 i would rather do it for a stud wide receiver this has been a way bigger problem over the last few years than pass rusher.
