We are now two months into NFL free agency, and the player thought to be the top defensive talent on the board remains unsigned.
Jadeveon Clowney seemed on track to score a megadeal after seasons spent between the Seattle Seahawks and Houston Texans. Instead, the former top overall draft pick has had to lower his asking price of at least $20 million per year and still hasn’t found a deal to his liking.
Clowney has said he is in no rush to sign, but you have to wonder if that is by choice in a system where teams typically rush to lock up top free agents.
