Absolutely nobody "thinks" that Taylor "wants to sign three separate tags".

Even two is a stretch. He would have to have an agent advising him worse than whoever was representing Josh Norman in 2016. If Carolina can't get him to play left and they are keen on publicly questioning his value in comparison to his peers they are only hurting themselves in this process.

Kirk Cousins got to three, or am I mistaken?

Im firmly in the two year tag group, while keeping options open. 

He was tagged twice but bolted in free agency to the Vikings where he got a big 3 year deal.

Thought they reached the end for tagging. He completely played the system/game the right way, hot super rich as a result too. Funny I always thought was in the Teddy group far as QB talent, but I seen he was 5th in TDs since joining the viking.....waaay higher than I thought.

Its Obvious Moton wants Pro Bowl RT money but the only thing is he's not a Pro Bowl talent. Any smart Agent would have signed. The market was already set by the saints.

Huddle: "SaM dArNoLd Is ThE sAvIoR!!! eXcElLeNt VaLuE!!!"

Also Huddle: "fug Taylor Moton. Not worth the money."

[Newbie]

What are the odds that maybe Coach Rhule and Scott Fitterer don’t think Moton is worth the money he’s asking for and Brady Christensen is the long term plan at RT? I’m not saying I agree with this but does anyone else think this is a possibility?

Heard a few minutes of Polian tonight on Sirius NFL radio.  Said...1)nothing gets done without a deadline and expects contracts to go down to the wire and also...2)with the tags being so high today....agents are advising their clients to take the tag if they are not getting what they want.  Player taking the risk of course.  If it goes that way not too concerned.

I have no problem whatsoever with 3.

Norman's agent didn't understand easily Jerry Richardson could devolve into a fit of pique, unfortunate situation.  

I've seen no public comments whatsoever from the Panthers questioning Moton in any way, nothing improper going on that would hurt  their negotiating position.

If Moton is going to switch to LT seems to me he would want to play under the tag...

...if he proves he can do it there's a bigger pot of dough at the end of that particular rainbow.

Unless he wants that kind of money now, which would explain why there is no deal yet…

Deadline is 4pm today.

Mind you, even if they do get a deal done by then it might not be announced immediately. Sometimes the announcement comes a little later in the day.

I am still betting on him signing something.  Damn that is a huge gamble when you are leaving 60+ million on the table.
