The question is...

 

Who else would the Jags tag?

 

No one I can think of.

FA should never dictate your draft, except for adding talent so you don't have to reach for need.

 

However, perhaps they have a big time FA in mind they want to throw the bank at. 

 

Even if there were... Tagging Prince @ 14mil this season wouldn't prevent us throwing a huge contract... or 2... or 3... if we wanted to.

 

I just don't understand why people CARE if Prince gets $14mil for one year with the Tag.  It's not like it's your money.  It's not like the team is up against the cap.  It's not like we are tight on funds.

 

Tagging Prince does NOTHING to hinder this team.  It simply provides an option at CB this year.

 

Sure, a 4 year deal on the cheap would be great.  Maybe he doesn't want to sign a cheap 4 year deal.  It's not like we can force him to sign for 4 years worth of peanuts.

 

We can "force" him to stay one year for a hefty paycheck while we explore our options in FA/Draft this offseason and push that decision to next year.
