If Jarvis Green, a backup, is a $2.7 million guy, then it is very likely that Givens thinks that he is worth more, especially when one considers that the average starting wideout in 2005 was playing under a deal that averaged $2.9 million.

Tagging someone doesn't mean you have to pay him. You could always work out a trade for much less than the 2 1st rounders required to sign him away. The tag just allows the team to do something besides give him away.

I'm with you JR...the tag is bad and I'm pretty sure Belichick hates to use it.

Never mind.

unless im mistaken, if he signs the offer, then you are obligated to pay him... if we dont want to pay him the franchise number, then we'd have to find a suitor who WOULD pay him that number, PLUS give us picks... right? it could happen, but i would expect any offer of picks to very small. we did get something for tebucky; was that a different scenario?

I think much depends on the CBA situation and whether they can consider long term deals

Without a CBA agreement they might be inclined to franchise or transition Givens for one year - that's seriously overpaying him, but only for one year.

Same with Adam.

That's where the transition tag comes in - you can revoke it at any time

My guess would be neither gets the franchise tag this year. Givens more likely than vinatieri though. My hope is both are signed long-term.
