Re-Signing Brandon Carr: What Do You Do
There's about four more week of football ahead of us.

We've managed to wrap up Brandon Flowers during the season, Tamba Hali this offseason, DJ and Jamaal Charles last offseason...

This offseason, we have two very important players hitting free agency, and one franchise tag.

The tag goes to Bowe, no sweat. It's impossible to find franchise WRs, and when you have one, you must keep it. He's Top 10 at his position. Carr, for all his talent, is not. He's maybe top 25.

But what would you do if:

Carr (or, more likely, his agent) knows Carr is bound to be drastically overpaid on the free agent market, as young talent almost always is.

He knows the Chiefs desperately want Carr to stay on board. And the Chiefs have no leverage to keep him on board because their franchise tag is tied up with Bowe.

So knowing he has ALL the leverage in this situation, Carr opens big:

"I want 5 years, $50 million, $22 million guaranteed.

Just like my teammate, Brandon Flowers." (And other top flight corners like Johnathan Joseph, who got almost the exact same deal.)

You can haggle with Carr, but keep in mind, you're incredibly time-pressured, and Carr knows he has the leverage here. Even if you get him to come down, it's going to be nickels and dimes lower, not much else.

Do you (a.) sign Carr to a damn near identical deal to Brandon Flowers, or (b.)let Carr walk and just collect the 3rd or 4th round compensatory pick next year.

That's likely going to be our options at this point, folks.

Poll forthcoming.

Congratulations. You're paying your starting corners $100 million dollars.

Neither of them is All Pro. And one of them isn't even a Pro Bowler.

Is it?

Carter was an All Pro talent, Hasty among the league's best CBs.

Carr and Flowers are really good, but that's not quite the same level there.

I'm just saying.

Think of all the pieces this team needs that would conceivably cost a shit ton.

QB. NT. LT (Albert will need to get paid in a year).

So on and so on.

It's not your money, and we easily have enough cap room, so why worry about it?

You have to ask yourself:

Do I want to pay my starting cornerback duos, one of them amazing Pro Bowl talent (but not a lockdown, All Pro type), the other a great supporting role character but not a year-in, year-out Pro Bowl talent, $100 million dollars?
