TWEET

For those don’t speak Twitter, Saunders is saying that Frank Clark called him and then he put a thinking emoji. Sure that could mean absolutely nothing, but then why tweet it?

Interesting. We win the offseason if we sign Clark to a reasonable offer.

Clark on a one year deal is a no brainer. We have a 34 year old DE on one side and have to count on Granderson, Turner or a Rookie on the other end. I know Clark is small for what we do, but he doesn't have to be an everydown guy.

A 30 year old DE who still contributes solid rotation snaps.

Surely we can do worse

Interesting/infuriating reading the comments and seeing what other fanbases think of the Saints

At the same time, it's pretty

seeing them refer to the team as a poverty team when the Saints are always one of the bigger spenders.

Clark has not been good since going to KC. Not a huge fan of his. He takes too many plays off. Now, if he comes in on an incentive-laden deal, maybe.

Recency bias at play bc he played well in the playoffs

He had a regular season quarterback pressure rate below 10%, ranking 83rd out of 130 edge defenders with at least 100 pass-rush snaps.

I think there are better options

I wouldn't say "not good". He didn't live up to that contract but he wouldn't be making that kinda money here.

when he took a 20.1% pass rush win rate (17th-best in NFL among edge players per PFF) and notched 9.5 sacks in Baltimore, despite playing a career-low 44% of his team’s snaps.

Justin Houston.

Could get him on the cheap while still getting younger players snaps.

I'm not a huge frank Clark guy but I'll take him at the right price.
