faba Posted February 22, 2007 Share Posted February 22, 2007 Saints slap DE Grant with franchise tag Five-year veteran says he feels disrespected Wednesday, February 21, 2007 By Mike Triplett Defensive end Charles Grant expressed his frustration Tuesday after the Saints designated him as their franchise player. The move requires the Saints to offer Grant a one-year contract worth $8.644 million the average of the top five players at his position. But it prevents the 28-year-old from becoming an unrestricted free agent March 2. Grant can negotiate with other teams, but it is unlikely another team will offer a long-term deal.

Man , any decent FA are dropping like flys. They know there's so much extra cap $$ out there that this has got to be frustrating the crap out of guys like Justin Smith, Grant etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
