2022 1st round pick
First the WR: I think a very very good possession receiver like Parker is exactly what we need. He also has two years left on his contract, 2022= About $6M cap hit, 2023=About $7M cap hit. Very easy to swallow for a talent like the sure handed Parker!
Xavien: Gives us that shut down CB we soooo need! The young QBs we are gonna have to start beating will demand for us to have better corner play and a guy like Xavien can shut down a WR while we double another. Rumors are Phins want a 1st and 2nd or 3rd. I think the value in Clark+ our 1st more than gets them that value plus extra to include Parker.
Frank Clark: YES we will either cut him or trade him because ATM he is on our books for about $26.3M in cap hit OUCH! If cut or traded we save $12.7M and then new team would get a lowered annual cap hit of about $7M! Now yes Clark hasn't played up to his lofty contract but he still has good pressure numbers just not getting those sacks. Take $7M away each of his last two years and throw him in the Dolphins defense and you have a good fit for a team that has pass rusher as a off season need.
So in the end we gain a shut down corner, GREAT hands WR in Parker and that $12.7 cap savings from trading Clark can go to giving Xavien a new deal.

I'm not willing to include our 1st round pick in that deal.
