Bingo. The Franchise tag isn't effected by cash flow since it is paid game by game equally, which is why I predicted they'd go the franchise tag route with Payne. Once new owners are aboard the possibility of a long term deals for free agents comes back into play (I predict we do next to nothing next week because of this problem).
