Kap and Smith yes, but they play the most important positions on offense and defense.
You've got to spread out the money, not load it all up in the secondary. That is going to crush them long term.
Secondary personnel are typically more expensive than LBs!
Very true, but we definitely have more crucial guys to sign.
Better for us to sell out in this years draft to give this season a strong SB run while we still have all those guys on the roster.
Never paid attention to the franchise tag fights but can the NFLPA file franchise tag grievances without the player's consent? Because I could see Aldon asking them to challenge the tender of an OLB and be an DE; or the NFLPA doing it on their own.
That is of course if it ever comes down to us tagging him.
EDIT: Don't answer that question here, answer it in the Aldon thread, unless it is a simple answer then I won't say anything else about it lol.
