Since they placed the tag on Allen and then signed him to a long term contract, can they reuse that tag on another player instead now?

No one on the Jags are currently on an expiring deal.  

But yes only one per year but realize they are used on expiring players only.  It'll be used for Trevor next year unless a contract is done before then, hopefully.

Chris Jones and Bosa's deals are now old news.   Josh was next man up and a lot of times that means highest paid at the position even though he wasn't in this instance.  Whether you agree he's worth it or not is irrelevant to what the market would pay him for his services.  Josh might have gotten Bosa money on the open market.  We'll never know.  Burns wasn't really a true glimpse at the market because his deal came from a trade so he very likely wasn't negotiating a contract with anyone else aside from the Giants.  

Not reaching a deal with Josh also sends a message to the rest of your roster about whether they are going to be rewarded here for good play.  He may very well not be worth what he's getting paid, but he did what he wanted and needed to do in his contract year.  They were going to find common ground around that $30M per year mark with the pressure to pay your guys on the team and the pressure to sign a fair offer or the player shouldering all of the injury risk.

Your second paragraph is the best.  Letting our players know we are here to pay you for your elite production.  Don't be afraid to be here.
