I thought there was a window for negotiations before the season.

I thought the home team gets like 7 days before the other teams can negotiate with the player...

I wonder if both Albert and Bowe would want to avoid the franchise tag badly enough to end up with a 'race to the courthouse' scenario.
"Gentlemen, one of you's getting singed to a long-term deal with a massive signing bonus, the other is getting the tag. Here's a pen and here are your contracts which are FMV contracts based on last year's market. The salary cap has not changed, so last year's market remains a valid point of comparison. Whichever one of you gets me a signed contract first will get your long-term deal." It's kinda the ol' prisoner's dilemma. You don't have them in the same room together because then they could band together and both choose not to sign and leave you in a bit of a lurch. Make the presentations to their respective agents and send them on their way. Yeah, Bowe has some leverage here, but the Chiefs have some as well if they use it correctly.

There's pros and cons to both. I'd still prefer to tag Albert and sign Bowe, if we can't sign both of them. |
