Unless you view Clark as a minimal upgrade from Ford, that seems pretty fair to me.
2019 #29 value: 640
2019 # 84 value: 170 (+ 38 from 93)
For sake of the 2020 pick, let’s say the 49ers improve and end up with the 14th pick in round 2: value: 440
If the Chiefs are in the bottom five of round 2 again, you’re looking at value ranging: 292-270 (+150-170)
Let’s keep the numbers round and say they end up gaining 200 draft value points overall. That’s the equivalent of a mid-3rd round pick.
... (edit)
Which means the overall payout in draft pick value equates to basically a mid-2nd

In this context it doesn’t seem like a bad deal at all. Prior to this year (contract year for Dee) people didn’t even want his 5th year option & were seething at the tag. We’re in win now mode with Pats rookie deal. I’m here for it!
