Keeping Peters on the franchise tag might keep us from extending a player. I’d sacrifice 1 year of Peters for a high 2nd rd pick (1st?) and maybe an additional pick compared to a 3rd rd comp pick. That’s a big disparity. You are far more likely to get a premier player from an early 2nd/1st compared to a 3rd rd comp.

Having an elite corner is gonna be worth more than extending an ILB though or whoever it is that isn't a QB or a pass rusher.
You'd be tagging Peters in 2020. That's gonna be the year your really looking to push for a SB with Mahomes on a rookie deal.
