2017 Franchise Tags

[Chargers GM (Greg)]

Please place 2017 Franchise Tags in this thread.    

Franchise Tagged players are signed to an extension by the controlling team based on their performance the previous year. Using the Blitz ESPN Overall Player Ranking, each player is assigned a franchise value based on the following scale.  

Ranked 1-25 --> 17M Annual salary
Ranked 26-50 --> 12M Annual salary
Ranked 51-75 --> 8M Annual salary
Ranked 76-100 --> 4M Annual Salary
Ranked 101-200 --> 2M Annual Salary
Ranked 200-300--> 1M Annual Salary
Ranked 300+--> 0.75M Annual Salary

Franchise Tags may be up to 2 year in length. Each team is allowed 1 Active Franchise Tag at a Time. Franchise tags are confirmed by the League Managers. Franchised Tag may only be used Twice on the same player then he goes directly to Unrestricted Free Agency

Note: Franchise Tags DO NOT transfer over Year-to-Year and A FRANCHISE TAGGED PLAYER NO LONGER QUALIFIES FOR CONTRACT EXTENSION!

Cliff Avril was player #207 overall and so his franchise tag will be $1M. I'll tag for one year if I have the option to retag Avril a year from now. If not, two years is fine. Quote me letting me know. Thanks.

Ben, you can tag him for either one to two years.  If you tag him this year for $1M for one year, you can tag him next year but at the rate based on his 2017 performance ranking, not his 2016 performance ranking.   Your choice.
