So how much would we have paid to not have Frank Clark on the roster as a post June 1 cut that counted towards this year's cap?
Would that have been enough to sign a replacement after the Reid signing?
Were there any other DEs out there that fit Veachs age requirement model that we could have paid less for?
Seems to me they did this because they were going to have to pay him regardless and that money would have ate into signing another guy and maybe they didn't like the available guys due to what Veach typically looks for in FAs? Age being a big one it seems. So they just went with this to get immediate cap relief now.

If im understanding this correctly, it's the $13M that woulda been dead cap PLUS 9M in new money.
DJ is arguing that he woulda used that 9M on anyone not named Frank Clark. You were going to pay the 13M anyway. But the 9M; coulda just used that on anyone other than Clark.
It's understandable.
