Well fellow skins fans, if cromartie hits the market would you consider making a push for him over Rogers? If the $ was right I would

Cromartie brings a lot baggage, and not just for his Brady Bunch family. Honestly I would keep Rogers over him.

I seem to recall that if a team placed the franchise tag on a player, there was a potential situation in which said team would not be able to use the franchise tag again until the franchised player's "new" contract expired. I really can't remember the details, but it seems to me that if you franchise a player and then sign him to a contract, you can't use the tag on another player until said contract expired. I may be totally off base with this, but I can't remember. Getting old sucks lol...

The way it worked (as far as I recall) is that they have a deadline to get a long term deal done by, which the franchise tag could be used again next year. If they work out a long term deal after that deadline, the franchise tag would apply to the length of the contract.

Most teams that don't get the deal done by that deadline, just have him sign the one year contract and get the deal done after the following season or use the franchise tag again.

This is my recollection on how it works.

Before this year, I'd take a chance on Cromartie. However, this year, the guy went bat crazy like Mariah Carey on us.

Good player. Just stay away though.
