He's 29 yo, slow start to his career and doesn't look like anything to brag about. No worries. KnowMo just splooged though all over his keyboard.

Without looking it up, isn't that about where Frank Clark stands?

***edit*** Chitown covered it, Frank Clark still sucks though.

He was suspended the first six games of 2020.

I can't believe they dropped that contract on him... sure, the talent and upside is there, but his history is terrible. Hopefully, part of the deal is him paying $1M a year for a babysitter.

:LOL: Is Elway still pushing buttons?

This move draws you to that conclusion? Brother, Randy Gregory is older than Frank Clark and hasn't even sniffed Frank's best year. There is nothing impressive about this signing, if it happens. his 2021 was worse than Frank Clark's 2020 season that we all bitched about.

Frank Clark has played twice as many snaps as Randy Gregory over the past two years and only has one more sack.

Stats are fun... I think Randy had one 5-sack game in that total. I want to believe he can be amazing, but the dude has a lot to prove.

At least he's not Bradley Chubb.

I'd be fine with Randy Gregory (if he's allowed on the field) and Malik Reed as our starters. I wonder what the trade market for Chubb would be.

I'm not sure, but I think the point is to be actively on the field playing. No one is denying Gregory's ceiling as a player, but you can't begin to talk about his ceiling before acknowledging the floor, on which he has resided on for a number of years.

Denver basically reset the edge market and it's probably why Veach kept Clark around. All these guys in FA are going to get overpaid because of this dumb deal. Stupid Donks take the L.

Im going to go out on a limb here and bet it's not going to work out. Let's see if I'm right...

Like the fact Dallas was eager to retain him. Like the fact that Dallas put him on their leadership council last year.

Whatever else can be said, the team with the most information on him wanted to keep him for what is reportedly the exact same money.

I don't even care if he is good. Our offensive line is better than their defensive line and my milkshake brings all the boys to the yard that's right my milkshake brings all the boys to the yard.

I hope that doesn't come across gay just saying our offensive line is better than anything thing the AFCWest can throw at us.

K Mack is coming off a foot surgery we don't know how well that will hold up and we've handled Bosa plenty before. This Randy Gregory is a chump that got paid and doesn't have to prove himself.

Randy Gregory could go down as worst FA signing of the season.

Could be. George Paton's batting average is pretty damn good, though. Paton could've had any EDGE he wanted and chose Gregory.

A great plus in the Gregory deal is the length. Most FA's sign for two or three years, Gregory is locked in for five, so as the cap goes up that $14M per year looks better and better.

Except he won't see the field much so when u factor actual games played that will drastically change your equation. Just sit back and watch what happens.

The max pot suspension is three games now and he hasn't failed a test since he was reinstated, despite being tested ten times per month.

Ok. You'll see.
