[QUOTE="Dantés, post: 869448, member: 12283"] The problem with this logic is that you're using contracts that were signed in 2016 (Jones) and 2015 (Heyward) as a combined comparison of a deal that would be signed in 2020 or 2021. The cap was 143 million in 2015 and 155 million in 2016. It's currently 198 million and projects to about 207 million next off-season. Jones' cap figure was 5.2% of the total cap when he signed, and Heyward's was 6.4%, for a combined 11.6% of the total salary cap. In 2020 dollars, their combined price tag would be 23M (or 24M next offseason), not 17M. If you want to actually compare a 17M price tag for Clark to the combination of two players, you need to find guys who were just signed, or do the math and figure out older comps that fit the percentage. So an accurate comparison would be Michael Pierce and Emmanuel Sanders. Or another would be Robby Anderson and Quinton Jefferson. If I have to pick between Clark and a comparison of [I]that [/I]caliber, it isn't even a question. [/QUOTE]
