Nobody knows what’s going to happen with the CBA being negotiated and the March 4 work stoppage approaching There are quite a few great players and valuable players who are approaching free agency. We don’t even know whether the franchise tag will exist past this CBA, but I could see it being used by quite a few teams to hold on to quality players.Here’s a list of players who could possibly be franchised:
Michael Vick – Philadelphia Eagles
Vincent Jackson – San Diego Chargers
Barrett Ruud – Tampa Bay Buccaneers
Johnathan Joseph – Cincinnati Bengals
Tamba Hali – Kansas City Chiefs
Champ Bailey – Denver Broncos (I doubt it because of his age)
Peyton Manning – Indianapolis Colts
LeMarr Woodley – Pittsburgh Steelers
David Harris OR Santonio Holmes, New York Jets
Logan Mankins – New England Patriots
Steve Smith – New York Giants
Sidney Rice or Chad Greenway – Minnesota Vikings
Who should be on the list and who shouldn’t be on the list?

nearly all these players will get franchised or get signed
i thought VJ couldnt get franchised this offseason…
nyg steve smith…interesting to see what happens there esp. with plaxico looking for a team
and i dont see how the patriots let mankins go, but if they do he will get 31 offers
What about Haloti Ngata?
I want Vick and Harris or Woodley.
Logan Mankins wouldn’t be bad either but I doubt NE will let him get away. Although we have picked up a spurned Patrior before.
G-Man,
If Paulman was a free agent this year… Would you place a “Franchise Tag” on me…or let me walk….
Walk. They miss you in Carolina. We’ll be fine. We’ve got a few up-and-comers.
