The last team to use its franchise tag was the Super Bowl champion Steelers, who designated offensive tackle Max Starks, the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reported. Starks, who was paid $6.9 million as a transitional player in 2008, is guaranteed $8.451 million in 2009.

this guy has to be the luckiest NFL player in the history of the NFL...what is the Steelers infatuation with a guy that can't handle speed rushers and is mediocre at best playing LT?

Thats exactly what I was thinking. The guy got paid $6 million last year and the franchise tag this year is $8 million. I'd sign both of them and hope no one wants to trade for me.

If he was a GM it would be the worst collection ever assembled and people would be making fun of him on draft day, bah gawd he took a MLB and a RT with top 5 picks!

Max Starks benefits from how bad the Steelers line is so they have to keep him.
