I am wondering if some teams who have placed the Franchise Tag on players is keeping in mind that there is a distinct possibility that the new CBA could possibly eliminate the Tag thus making it possible that the current tagged player could become an immediate FA and free to sign with anyone if the CBA goes this direction and is settled before the end of summer.
In regards to our team,Would this stick in the back of the mind of BB to maybe draft an OG early with the idea floating around that there may not be a Franchise Tag in 2011 and beyond?...would this change maybe the way he would normally draft?
I think without a shadow of a doubt that there will be a divorce between the Patriots and Mankins if a change like this is instantly enacted and Mankins would hop aboard the overpriced train to sign with another team.
This possible new CBA issue could certainly mean that the Patriots would no longer be able to hold onto Logan and make the option to draft an OG who can start immediately a more serious look in the early rounds?.
