It's a pure short-term cap move that actually makes next year marginally worse.
AT BEST, it's a cap neutral move. At best.

It's just really simple to figure out especially when you do the 2-year view of the transaction (which you should ALWAYS do because of rollover and the easy of manipulating June 1 tags, etc...).
Brett Veach valued Frank Clark at roughly a $8-9 million/yr player plus incentives. That's what we gave him in 'new' money vs. cutting him.
That's what could've gone to Arden Key or Derek Barnett or Charles Omenihu or a slew of other options.
Veach just continues to have a blind spot for Frank Clark.
