Everywhere you turn, it seems like "everyone" is having a good time knocking Clowney down from the top rated spot in this draft.
It's almost as if... In this day and age, the media loves to build people up and enjoys pulling them down.

What none of those things will show, however, is Clowney's work ethic and attitude, and there are plenty of questions about those. Mike Mayock and Warren Sapp, both of the NFL Network, shredded Clowney in those areas. Mayock said there were red flags about Clowney -- but Sapp was even harsher, saying Clowney should be ashamed of the way he played at times and questioned whether Clowney really wants to play football.
I understand the critique of this player. And... Honestly, he makes me a tad nervous. But how much of this "worry" is driven by the media's feast on Clowney?
