Last Friday was the deadline for franchise players to sign long-term contracts, and it got me to thinking about which Packer is the most likely to be tagged in the next few years. By the way, this hasn't happened since Ryan Pickett in 2010. The very best players on a team are usually the onesContinue Reading››

Thompson normally seems to use the franchise tag just to get more time to talk out a longer deal... and the guys he has tagged (DT Corey Williams in 2008 and DE Ryan Pickett in 2010) aren't really franchise players but above average players that he wanted to resign and not let get away.

With that in mind, I could see a couple of different paths in 2017
[list]

If Perry or Datone light it up and have a break out year (like Corey Williams did) at OLB might want to lock up the young guys.

Sitton, Lang or Bak as a veteran to keep around and get more time to talk (like they did with Pickett)

To lock up Rb Eddie Lacy or TE Jared Cook as they play at positions with cheaper tags.

[/list]

In 2018, I think they'll resign Shields and Haha before FA or let them test the waters.
But maybe Burnett or TE Rodgers will get tagged for more time to work out a long term deal.

Martha Careful (22-Jan) : just kidding...it was down

Martha Careful (22-Jan) : you were blocked yesterday, due to a a recalcitrant demeanor yesterday in the penalty box for a recalcitrant demeanor

dfosterf (22-Jan) : Was that site shutdown on your end or mine? No big deal, just curious

beast (21-Jan) : That way teams like Indiana and SMU don't make the conference championships by simply avoiding all the other good teams in their own confere

beast (21-Jan) : Also, with these "Super Conferences" instead of a single conference champion, have 4 teams make a Conference playoffs.

beast (21-Jan) : Also in college football, is a bye week a good or bad thing?

Martha Careful (21-Jan) : The tournament format was fine. Seeding could use some work.
