I don't think you're getting a star at CB at 29, especially in his first year. Maybe he develops into Byron Jones (who was taken in that area) eventually, but it's not all about that first year.
That's my argument here. It's fine that they did what they did, I get it. But Clark has to be an ass kicker, right now, and for a while for them to come out even equal.
You were a Nelson fan anyway, why wouldn't you want another one of those?

I was not a Nelson “fan”. I said he didn’t suck nearly as bad as CP thought he did. I defended him. If I were a fan, I wouldn’t have been so quick to say let him walk giving the need at the position. He was a decent 3rd round pick that we got some value out of for a couple years. That’s it.
If you think drafting another Nelson at 29 was better than getting an elite edge rusher, you’re dumber than I thought.
