Kraken Compensation


Growl

Even if that wasn't ridiculous, we don't weild that kind of leverage with teams knowing we have to get rid of him.

 

its not ridiculous. its fact

 

Non-Exclusive Tag

Using the non-exclusive tag on a player gives teams a certain amount of security. Other teams can work to sign a player to a long-term contract, and the team that tags the player can either match that deal or receive two first-round picks in compensation for its loss.

If Trent Richardson can net you a 1st....

I suppose there's merit to this, but Richardson looked a lot better at the time of his trade.

Not to mention it was midseason and Indy was looking for something to push them over the top.

If there is a team that will gamble on a second year player who can't run past the line of scrimmage, i'm certain there are teams that will look to take a proven commodity and pro-bowler that can play any position on the line.

This is for RFA's. I'm talking about a franchise tag and trade. Hardy is unrestricted I do believe.

hes neither if we tag him. thats what the tag is for. Carolina can choose to match an offer or get 2 first round picks. There is nothing in between.

yeah I'm pretty sure it doesnt work this way. i believe the franchise tag only places him under contract for year-as a normal regular player- getting paids the average of top 5 money at his position- and gives the team the freedome to do what they wish for him and trade him for whatever they see fit.

youre thinking of tenders.

    • I don't think it was fear of the unknown because he tried to hide the extent of the injuries that made him drop. After the drop, the reports I heard were that teams knew what was wrong with his knee and it was something similar to another athlete from a few years ago (honestly don't remember if it was even a football player).  That it was basically one of those things where he should be fine for a while, there isn't a huge concern of immediate injury risk.   But what he has going on with his knee is something that is degenerative and there's little chance he'll be able to play more than 5 or so years on it before he won't be able to play anymore. So basically it was teams knowing if they draft him, he's probably going to be only a rookie contract player and even if he's great, you might not be able to get use out of him on a second contract.  Which in turn makes the drop make sense, but I'm kinda surprised some contending team didn't take him late in the 1st, hoping he'd put them over the top on a SB run but then not even have to worry about giving him a big contract in 4 years too.
    • Depends if they see the writing on the wall with their roster and contracts and decide to bite the bullet and begin a complete rebuild and roster overhaul.  I have no clue why some franchises (IE us) refuse to do this and keep half assing trying to win 8 games or so.  Do it correctly, take your lumps and build a contender.  We shall see what loomis decides.
    • Each team plays 17 games.  I do not see why they don't just have each team play one international game per year.  Neutral site game, 8 home, 8 away.
