Patriots expected to place Franchise Tag on Trey Flowers

Fake news?

Is there any other kind these days? It's not like the good old days.

BB would absolutely tag Flowers and control his rights. It buys time to hammer out a deal for him to stay or facilitate a trade if he is moving on.

BB tagged Tbucky Jones. Its a no brainier that Flowers get the tag assuming that TF and NE cant agree on a deal before it reaches that point.

so you are of the belief that NE will tag Flowers?

I'm not expecting them to tag Flowers, Gostkowski will get the tag if they don't get a deal done soon and some people will be outraged but it's probably going to happen.

It makes perfect sense for how the Pats usually operate, it brings him back for next year at top kicker salary which he's already on anyway.

He had a cap hit of $5m this year and if they tag him it's $5m on the tag.
