What a great story and a great fit for Eric Berry if this did happen!? Any thoughts on where he will go or will he stay in KC. I do not see him going anywhere but I sure hope he does... Favorite Vol of all time... Well atleast one of them... Kinda like picking a favorite kid.

Nothing at all like that. I can pick a favorite kid easily. A favorite vol? Not so much.

I think EB for me is a little special just because I followed his recruitment so closely and watched every game and well he was an amazing Vol got two of his jerseys signed for me... Dude is awesome.

Dont think Atl needs a safety. That one guy Neal balled out this year as a rookie. Not sure if hes Fs or Ss though.

This guy on Reddit sounds like he knows what he's talking about

https://www.google.com/amp/s/amp.re...hise_tag_the_same_player_every/?client=safari

Below is what he said:

First year franchise tag:

120% of the previous year's salary, or average of the top 5 salaries of everyone else playing that position, whichever is higher. The "average" is actually a percentage of the cap. It's calculated as follows: Take the franchise tag amounts for the position for each of the previous 5 years, add them all up. Divide them by the sum of the salary cap totals for each of the previous 5 years. Multiply that by the salary cap for this year. So if the five previous franchise amounts were $10M, $11M, $12M, $13M, $14M and the salary caps were $100M, $105M, $110M, $120M, $130M, and this year's salary cap is $140M, it'd be (10+11+12+13+14)/(100+105+110+120+130) = 10.69% of $140M, or $14.86M.
Second year of the franchise tag:

Same thing. Unless the math gets really weird, the 120% increase is likely to be the higher amount.
Third year of the franchise tag:

An average of the top 5 salaries at the highest paid position (likely QB). So if a WR's tag amount is $12M, but a QB's tag amount is $20M, a WR tagged a 3rd time will get the $20M. OR 120% of the average of the 5 largest prior year salaries at his position (so 120% of the 5 biggest WR contracts from the year before, in this case). OR 144% of the player's previous year's salary. Whichever is highest.

There's nothing in the CBA saying they can't be tagged a 4th time. I would assume a 4th year would have the same rules as a 3rd, which means the cost at that point would be pretty outrageous.

Also, of minor note: The player can choose to take the 120/144% increase over the average of the salaries if he wants, even if the 120/144% increase is the lower amount. Why he would take less money I don't know, but it's an option for him. The team is required to offer the higher of the two, but the player can opt to take the lower amount.
