Jadeveon Clowney
LB - HOU
2017 Outlook
Expert Note
View More NotesClowney had his best season as a pro in 2016 posting 40/12/6 slash line. In leagues where he classified as a DE, he makes for a sound DL3 selection with fairly significant upside as he's still just 24 years old. He's yet to play a full season during his three-year NFL career, so he does come with some risk.

Houston Texans pass rusher Jadeveon Clowney (knee) underwent arthroscopic knee surgery shortly following the team's elimination from the playoffs. He withdrew from the Pro Bowl as a result.
Fantasy Impact
Clowney had struggled to remain healthy for the first two seasons of his NFL career. However, in 2016, he played in 14 games, produced his best statistical season as a pro and is beginning to live up to his draft potential -- he was the No. 1 overall pick in 2014. Clowney finished 2016 with 52 total tackles, six sacks, a forced fumble and two pass deflections. If J.J. Watt returns anywhere close his dominating form, and Clowney continues to play at an elite level, Houston's defense will once again be a force in 2017.
