In Texans rumors today, it is officially the season for the top picks in the 2014 NFL Draft to start facing the criticism that seems to go hand-in-hand for kids trying to jump to the next level.
So says Mike Florio of Pro Football Talk, who quotes an "unnamed NFL executive" saying some pretty damaging things about potential Houston Texans #1 pick, Jadeveon Clowney:
“He’s spoiled, and he’s lazy,’’ the executive stated. “He’s never worked hard a day in his life, now all of a sudden you’re going to give him a bunch of money and expect him to work hard. I don’t see it.’’
The anonymous NFL exec wasn't done throwing out barbs at Clowney, saying, “some team will fall in love with him. But wait and see, just wait and see. I just don’t think you can count on him. I’m betting the under on him.’’
As Florio says, all unnamed sources that come out around draft time need to be taken with a grain of salt. So, don't jump off the Jadeveon Clowney train just yet Texans fans.
