Exactly. No Frank Clark type money and we'll be good. Plus, IIRC, he looked good in the playoffs. Not excellent but that was his first game back. [Reply]

When I say "overpay" I'm talking about egregious abuses of the cap, aka Frank Clark.
I don't care if we give him big money. Just don't wreck the cap in doing so. [Reply]
Per source: I’m told the Kansas City #Chiefs and Tyrann Mathieu are close to finalizing a deal that would keep the Honey Badger in KC for 2022. #NFLFreeAgency

Which is why the market probably won't develop for him in a cap crippling sort of way.
Oh sure, if someone's looking to give him 3/$45 w/ $20 million in guarantees, he'll take that. But I don't think anyone will be. He's realistically going to be looking at 2 year deals with mostly fake money in year 2.
I can live with that. And unless/until we hit on some DL in the draft, that's the kind of churn we're going to have to live w/ on the DL. We just can't afford to go crazy w/ LTCs for defensive lineman right now. [Reply]
