I don't necessarily agree with this - DeMarcus Lawrence got a deal, Frank Clark got a deal, Dee Ford got a deal. (Granted, Clark and Ford got their deals from teams that didn't tag them, and Lawrence got one after his 2nd tag). It's specific to teams, from what I've seen. The Texans have tagged two players in their short history - Clowney and CB Dunta Robinson. Robinson left as soon as he could. Pretty sure Clowney will, too.

Well I said feels like, obviously it’s always case by case. However you did note that the three you mentioned were paid by other teams and the 3rd was tagged twice. The NFLPA has to get rid of the tag in the new CBA. Clowney should be preparing for camp and a potential super bowl run for you guys. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think they need to get rid of it, but it should be altered a bit - I like the idea of average of top five players regardless of position. So in essence, you're paying QB money to anyone you choose to tag. I'd say another interesting add on? To use the tag, you have to give up the pick from the round you drafted the player if you don't have a deal in place before the draft. In the case of Clowney, tagging him would cost the Texans their 1st round pick, Lawrence would have cost the Cowboys their 2nd round pick, Frank Clark would cost the Seahawks their 2nd round pick, etc. That way, you have a pretty serious implication if you don't hammer out a new deal and/or trade the tagged player - in many cases, you lose a valuable pick. (In essence, do like most Fantasy keeper leagues). You have to be very judicious on who you tag, or enter into negotiations with pressure on the teams' side to get a deal done (which is exactly why nobody on the NFL side will go for it). Poop or get off the pot, NFL front offices. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So in essence, you're paying QB money to anyone you choose to tag. I'd prefer something along the lines of the franchise tag is any of 3 contract offers to a player: 1, 2, or 3 years, fully guaranteed, at the top 5 annual salaries. Most teams use the 1 year to set a baseline and as leverage to limit the guaranteed money. This ends that. To use Le'Veon Bell as an example, the Steelers would have ended up offering him a maximum of around $45MM guaranteed. So if a player is just looking for long term security as a starting point for a new deal, it's there. Likewise, if a player wants to max out the AAV, they just take the 1 year option. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be fair, this is @ET80 with a maxed charisma. Just maxed for him. It’s pretty middling for everyone else. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
