Frank Clark's mere existence on this roster will make things harder for this organization next season. And that's why he shouldn't be on it.

See this is my point. You guys are acting like this is a huge problem prohibiting us from doing things like keep players. It’s really not.
We’ve got $25 million next year. After Frank is released it’s $35 million. That’s before any other cuts.
And you know extending Thornhill will not be a problem. His first year cap hit will be minimal and Frank will be completely off the books when his big cap hits set in.
I also wasn’t high on the Bryan Cook pick but you’re forgetting Mike Danna. Dude is a 5th rd pick. And Karlaftis was the 30th. We’re paying them both next to nothing.
Every team has a player like this. When you draft and coach we’ll it minimizes problems like this.
