Quote:Give Amukamara, a mediocre non-playmaking #2 CB, a franchise tag worth about $14m?  ...no way.

 

Aside from the draft, there is a long list of free agent CBs that will do an adequate job, similarly to Prince, without having to overpay to the degree of a franchise tag amount. 
 

 

The thing is, just given the market for CBs it's likely that Prince wll garner $9 or $10 mil. ...Spotrac projects his market value at $11 mil.  .,,so one year at $14 mil is not all that much worse while allowing the Jaguars to part ways if need be next year with no dead money. As the article points out, it's not like the Jaguars can't afford the move.
