Predict their 2020 stat lines (Gary first)

I still think Gary will be something like a Nick Perry without the glass hands, and I also think they will try to use him like they do with ZaDarius (lined up all over, including as inside DL rusher).
I don't think he will be JJ Watt.

Gary isn't a JJ Watt but he could be a Javeon Clowney.

Gary isn't a JJ Watt but he could be a Javeon Clowney.

I was actually thnking about this the other day. There are some similarities between the two, and while injuries impacted Clowney's trajectory he didn't really make the big jump until Year 3. (His sacks went 4.5 - 6 - 9.5 from Year 2-4.) I could see something similar with Gary, although Clowney was a more explosive and disruptive player in college. Maybe we could call Clowney an approximation of Gary's ceiling, which is pretty good.

Y'all are stealing my line. I'm the OG on the Gary-is-Clowney bandwagon. Thing is, I think Clowney has a lil' more crazy in him. I doubt Gary is ever as good as Clowney is.

I don't remember Clowney ever being healthy and playing anything close to 10 snaps in a game.
