If Frank is fine with limited playing time all year, with a commensurate salary, and then ball out in the playoffs, I'm all for it.

For instance, in three playoff seasons with SEA, Frank only earned 5 solo tackles, 6 QB hits, and just a pair of TFLs, to go along with his three playoff sacks. But in four years with KC, he's garnered 20 solo tackles, 14 TFLs, and 14 QB hits to go along with his franchise-leading 13.5 sacks, not to even mention his 11 assists or PD.

Say what you will about his regular season performances as a Chief, but in the playoffs he's literally been a completely different player for KC. He's messing with elite at this point.

Keep in mind, that I'm of the mindset of just cutting bait and moving on. I'd rather bring back Dunlap on another 1 year deal, plus signing Danna if we can.

I don't know if it'll be an extension, I certainly have major doubts about that. I think they ask him to rework his salary again and keep him next year though. I'm thinking about 7-8 million with a portion of that being incentive-based. Would put his cap hit around 15 million with the sunk cost of his bonus.

So here's a question that's already been asked in DraftPlanet, but I'll ask it here.

What would your bring Clark back for?

I'd sign him to 1-year deals from here on out if he was willing to take them. This coming year? I'd offer $7m. I imagine someone else will pay him more.

If Clark would take somewhere in the range of 2-3 years at $12-15 million a year with incentives that could bring him an extra $1-2 million a year based on performance I think he would have to heavily consider taking that. I don't think he's getting a huge deal in FA.

Do that and KC opens up their options in the draft. Depending on what they do with OBJ they could focus on a significant trade up for a LT, or possibly a WR if OBJ is tagged/extended. Perhaps they find a great RT prospect, or still find a can't miss DE prospect. DT would be another possibility. Keeping Clark around and possibly OBJ means they have fewer gaping holes on the roster and can really go with BPA. They can be aggressive with their multiple picks.
