$7 million could have got us a good player somewhere.

"It costs the same to cut him as it does to keep him"
Remember that idiot pablum? "Oh well Matt Derrick said..." as though that excuses rank ignorance.
Well folks, the $9 million extra it cost to keep that pile of shit last season is pretty much the difference between what we offered Jones and what he wants over the course of 3 years.
So yeah - didn't cost us anything at all, right?
Anyone who's willing to actually analyze his time here knows it was an unqualified failure. The trade and extension was a disastrously bad decision. Playoff Shart is a myth used by the nut-huggers to convince themselves otherwise.
Frank Clark ****ing sucks. He's always ****ing sucked. He will always ****ing suck. He was never an elite run defender or premier pass rusher. Setting the edge was never doing his job. He was a mistake born of a new gm and desperation.
This team needs to move on from the 2nd largest player personnel mistake it ever made. Pretending his an actual asset to this franchise does nobody any good.
