Here's what I love about this deal.
Some of y'all may remember I was all in on Flowers in Free Agency. The reason? Productive player, well rounded, and YOUNG. STILL IMPROVING.
Well, Clark is BETTER. And yeah, still 25, and STILL IMPROVING.
This is not a 'stop-gap' move, which honestly, is what I thought they'd do. This is a throw-your-chips-in go for it move. And it doesn't **** you in the long run. We're still in decent cap shape. We still have to draft well, but that's always true, no matter what.
But this is a move not to create a 'decent' defense. A 'good enough' defense. This is a move to a kick-the-shit-out-of-you defense.
We're a corner, maybe a LB away from being a top tier unit. After as bad as we were last year, that's huge.
I thought we had middling talent last year, and i still say that's true; but a lame scheme and shit coaching made it historically bad.
I'm pumped. Let's get a ring. Then another. Then another. Let's ****ing three-peat.
