    Could we designate him as Franchise Player? Would we? Would he hold out?

    The $ for the tag will be too much. If we're willing to commit that much, we could just resign him.

    Foster, OTOH, might be a possiblity. I don't think the tag # for RBs is super high.

    I read they have been negotiating with Foster but are far apart.

    Franchise pays him the average of the top 5 RBs in league. Hmm wonder what the cap figures are of
    Alexander
    LT
    Portis (not that he has earned his new deal)
    Edgerrin
    and fragile Fred

    Foster would have voided his bowels if the Panthers had offered that figure. Fuck that offer him a decent contract and stick to it. Denver has proved you can find value in later rounds at RB

    I am still annoyed that we locked up Morgan and not Spoon. Notice who is out there making plays and who is on the sidelines?

    Just wondered. That's alot of cash for a LB and RB. Maybe we should try to hire Denvers scout. They sure can pick good value RB's.
