10 Notable 2019 NFL Franchise Tag Candidates
Projected 2019 Franchise Tag Values
- Quarterback $24.865M
Running back $11.214M
Wide receiver $16.787M
Tight end $10.387M
Offensive linemen $14.067M
Defensive end $17.128M
Defensive tackle $15.209M
Linebacker $15.443M
Cornerback $16.022M
Safety $11.15M
Kicker/Punter $4.971M
Grady Jarrett (DT, ATL)
Projected Price: $15.35MThe Falcons rarely use the tag, and have cleared considerable cap space with a few releases already, making a long-term deal much more likely. His current market value also sits at $15.5M.
DeMarcus Lawrence (DE, DAL)
Projected Price: $20.5MLawrence has been an elite edge rusher over the past 2 seasons and will command a long-term deal north of $20M. The Cowboys have around $50M to spend right now, but with deals for Dak, Zeke, & Amari also in play, this will be one to watch.
Trey Flowers (DE, NE)
Projected Price: $17.3MThe Pats have been linked to potential tags for Flowers, OT Trent Brown, & K Stephen Gostkowski. Of the three, Flowers seems the more possible, though none are "likely". Flowers was easily the best pass-rush option for a sneaky good Pats defense in 2019. He'll need to take the Patriots discount to stay long-term though.
Jadeveon Clowney (OLB, HOU)
Projected Price: $15.6MMThis one seems like a slam dunk, as Houston likely wants another year to see if Clowney has officially turned the corner, while they also possess north of $60M in cap space. He holds a market value of $16.6M heading into March.
Dee Ford (OLB, KC)
Projected Price: $15.6MThe Chiefs have around $25M in space at the time of this post, so slapping a $15M+ tag on Ford will be costly, but doing so may mean others will fall. It's very possible Justin Houston is shipped out via trade/release in the coming weeks to clear room for Ford's pricetag.
Landon Collins (S, NYG)
Projected Price: $11.2MThe Giants defensive rebuild likely stops here, as Collins is too young, and too talented to just let walk away. An $11M tag for a team with $27M of space isn't ideal, so expect something more long-term around $9.5M per year to come sooner rather than later.
Nick Foles (QB, PHI)
Projected Price: $25.1MIt's risky business to tag a player you really don't want, and certainly can't afford in order to trade him, but it appears the Eagles are poised to make this move. He'll likely cost a 3rd round pick, and a restructured extension once he gets wherever he's going. Foles carries a $19.2M market value into the tag window.
Robbie Gould (K, SF)
Projected Price: $5MOne of the most accurate kickers since the new rules have been in place, Gould won't be allowed to walk one way or another. The 49ers hold $50M+ of space yet again, so a placeholder tag while they hammer out a multi-year deal won't hurt a bit. A deal north of $4.25M per year will make him the highest paid kicker in the league.
Frank Clark (DE, SEA)
Projected Price: $17.3MThe Seahawks have cleared up enough space ($50M) to offer themselves options with Clark. It's now a lock that he'll be tagged in order to provide more time to hammer out an extension. He holds a $15.7M market value currently.
Donovan Smith (OT, TB)
Projected Price: $14.2MThis is a bit of a tough call, as the Bucs are teetering on a complete rebuild, and Smith has been inconsistent through his first few seasons. But the position should prove too important to give up on, & a 1-year tag to see how 2019 plays out makes the most sense. The 25-year-old carries a $10.2M market value.
