Good stuff. Glad the Buehler metric is gaining traction

While I don't disagree with your monetary metrics, I think it's important to make a clean break this offseason with the high priced veteran, many of whom were just coasting the first almost half-season.
We need some lower priced hungry dogs and less off the field distractions. |

We can designate Clark as a post June 1st cut, and he would only cost 6.8 M against the cap in 2022.

Clark will likely not end up cut in 2022, if I had to guess. Net cap savings is 13m, and you are unlikely to replace his production for that.

I'd definitely argue on the side of you can replace Frank's production in year one of a multi-year deal easily for 13 m and potentially for half of that

Designate him post-June 1 and there's $7M in dead cap but a net cap savings of $19.5M. It's not even a discussion, they HAVE to cut him. |

If they want to get into backloaded contracts, they could get FOUR guys for that, not just two. |

In the context of production, NO ONE on the defensive side of the ball is worth $20M. This defense has been absolutely awful at times. Historically bad. They have appeared to have turned the corner this season and are now simply mediocre, which tbh is all we need if the offense continues to extract their collective craniums from their rectums. Other than Jones, anyone asking for that much money on the defensive side can pound sand. Draft and bring in hungry, driven, young defenders who want to prove themselves and position for a payday. Dump the guys who made it then have sat on their lazy asses. |

In the rollover era I don't think it's productive to look at cap savings in a single year because what it means going forward can also be significant (for instance, there would be dead money removed from the 2023 cap if you didn't June 1 him and just cut him outright).
Because one way or the other, that signing bonus is going to be on the cap over the next 2 seasons. What's productive is to look at the $19 million in base salary Clark is owed next year that will forever be excised from the cap and ask yourself if that money can be better utilized. Yes, it absolutely can. A $19 million base salary is enormous. So unless he's willing to simply take a straight pay cut and bring that base nearer $8-10 million, I think it's a no-brainer. |

You carry that dead cap saved from June 1 designation into 2023. The designation is cap neutral when looked at from a two year perspective.
