There is no way ordsprog

With the money involved now, and the fact a player can guarantee those dollars immediately by signing the [one-year qualifying offer that accompanies the franchise tag], there aren't many players who haven't done OK for themselves. And let's remember the original intent of the franchise tag, to allow teams a mechanism for being able to keep players essential to them. You don't think the Indianapolis Colts wouldn't have been harmed if they had lost Peyton Manning last year? No, I still think it's fair.

en With the new acquisitions, there are a few spots taken already. So mentally, I'm coming into camp like I'm a rookie. I know for a fact I don't have a guaranteed spot, so I'm just coming out, working hard and trying to make the team like everyone else.
