Traffic offenses by themselves might not do harm to an NFL prospect's draft status, but that doesn't mean NFL clubs won't take note of the ticket Jadeveon Clowney received Saturday night for driving 110 mph in a 70-mph zone. The South Carolina star was stopped by the South Carolina Highway Patrol on Interstate 77, driving a Chrysler 300, at around 7:30 p.m. ET, according to wistv.com.

"With Jadeveon Clowney, it would be a concern because it's part of a pattern of behavior," Brooks said. "It all may cause clubs to just pause and ask more questions. You've got the tie to Jay-Z, the injury stuff, the questions about effort. You're trying to figure out who you're bringing into the locker room, because if he goes No. 1, 2 or 3, he's the face of the franchise, or one of them. ... Anytime there is some reckless behavior, you want to know what's behind it. They'll ask him about (the ticket) point blank."

Only making a thread because hes a #1 overall candidate, and this will be interesting to follow

If it's on HWY 77, he's either going to or coming from Rock Hill.  There's rarely anyone on those roads - I'm usually going 15 over.

Does anyone else still think of David Clowney before Jadeveon when you only see the last name?

Even at 7:30pm?


Obviously won't affect his draft stock but it's still freaking stupid.

No, but that's because I see JD Clowney mentioned on a daily basis here. 

"Clowney walks across the street without using a crosswalk.  Character questions?"

I was gonna make another thread but i heard he doesnt floss after each meal

It's not like the roads are deserted in the upstate, but they're definitely not packed.  If he was on 26, it would be more concerning...but 77 only leads to hick towns.

Lazy, bad work ethic.

It's not in a story in itself but between the talk of him half assing it this season / lack of production some GMs will probably scrutinize him more

Haha yeah. I still think of David whenever I see that last name.

I'm more curious why the ties to Jay-Z would cause people concern than the speeding ticket.

It had to do with the "scandal" about him posting something on twitter that supported the rumors that he was in talks with Jay-Z's agency BEFORE this season started.

I remember it being mentioned that it potentially could have led to suspensions and what not.

I think because he might have been dumb enough to consult with an agent while still being in college.

Maybe he wanted to get caught and suspended. Then at least he'd have an excuse for being invisible all year.

Well if Clowneys stock starts falling, I really hope we retain Rex.

Thats the only way I could see us drafting a DL for a 4th year in a row in the 1st.
