I would say reverse Neil Smith actually. Smith never won a ring until he went to the Donks. Clark has never played for a cellar dwelling team until now. [Reply]

This. Frank Clark is a playoff and Super Bowl winning KC hero. Look forward to seeing him in the Ring of Honor some day. Neil Smith can get fucked. [Reply]

In my own defense, I did call out that it was a terrible comparison. That said, any time I see a player go from KC to Denver, Neil Smith is the default that comes to mind. [Reply]
Compensation update: Broncos are giving former Chiefs’ pass rusher Frank Clark a one-year deal worth up to $7.5 million, per source. The deal includes a $5.5 million guaranteed base salary, $1 million in makeable incentives and another challenging $1 million in incentives. https://t.co/JbAgDZ6LbN
Well, it's obvious where his priorities lie. He's gotten his rings, so I can't blame him, but I can't imagine anyone going to Denver to try and win another one. [Reply]
1 - Good for Frank, no one else was going to give him $5.5M guaranteed.
2 - Thank you for the fun memories!
3 - Playoff Frank will not be a thing this year, as the Broncos will not make the playoffs
4 - Regular season Frank will be a thing, as he seemed to have conditioning issues in KC, so assuming this remains a constant, his conditioning will be noticably worse a mile higher in altitude.
5 - I wish him luck in every game except for the two against KC, when I hope his stomach acts up for the day. [Reply]

His priorities? Pretty sure he wanted to play for the Chiefs again, and they released him. Never heard anything that indicated the Chiefs were serious about bringing him back on a cheaper deal, either. [Reply]
