[QUOTE="Thirteen Below, post: 1032239, member: 18006"] The point about losing Clark in free agency after next season has merit, though. I'll certainly say that much. Plus, Clark just finished his 8th season; statistically, D-linemen start dropping off steeply at Year 7, flatten out a bit in Year 8, and then drop sharply in Years 9 and 10. Many of the good ones can play longer (even much longer) but the clock is ticking, and he is getting up there. He's stil playing damned good ball right now, though. He'll turn 29 this season, and he'll probably still be a good player for several more years, but will he be worth the price to us as some of these younger players come due in a relatively short span of time? All questions worth considering. I'm not excited about trading him to a team we may very well have to beat in the playoffs, though. Edit: just looked up his contract. His cap hit this year is $27.5M, and of that $27.5, $24.3 is dead cap. Wow. [/QUOTE]
