Chiefs make it official-Franchise Tag Bowe
Todd Leabo@LeabonicsReply
Retweet #chiefs have placed the franchise tag on wr Dwayne Bowe. Chiefs make Bowe their franchise player The Chiefs today named Dwayne Bowe, their top wide receiver the past five seasons, as their franchise player, a move that effectively keeps him off the free-agent market. As part of that transaction, the Chiefs offered Bowe a one-year contract worth about $9.5 million. Bowe can sign the contract at any time or the sides could negotiate a long-term contract. As the franchise player, Bowe could still negotiate a contract with another team. But the Chiefs would have the right to match the offer and retain Bowe. If they decline to match, the Chiefs would lose Bowe but receive two first-round draft picks as compensation.

Good move. We can't lose them both.

Between the two, yes. Not really close. That said, both should still be Chiefs.

Why would they not use the tag that doesn't allow him to negotiate with other teams? Trying to save a buck or two again.

Id rather have Bowe and Routt than Carr. If we had franchised Carr and let Bowe walk, we wouldn't have gotten a player even close to being as good as he is. We did that with Carr at least. Routt is close to being as good as Carr is.

Because if someone wants to cough up two 1st rounders for Bowe we'd take it.

Glad this is behind us. Hopefully they can get a long-term deal worked out.

Would be cool to trade Bowe for two 1sts, trade up and snag Griffin.
