I think you can transition tag anybody, but it would be silly to tag a RFA because you can achieve a much better "hold" on them by tendering them at the highest level and it costs significantly less (depending on the position). That said, you're only gonna see your 4 year vets tagged with the transition or franchise tags.
Transition tag is a one year tender of the top 10 salaries at the same position. Franchise = top 5.
Transition gives team right of first refusal. Franchise gives team 2 1st rounders or otherwise agreed upon compensation.
