As I am sure everyone is aware the NFL Salary cap is now set to jump from $123 million to $130 million an increase of just under 5.7%. With that in mind I wanted to update some estimates as to franchise tag values and restricted free agent tenders, both of which are based on the salary cap limit in place.
Franchise Tag Projectons:
QB | $16,675,000 |
RB | $9,366,000 |
WR | $11,940,000 |
TE | $6,999,000 |
OL | $11,528,000 |
DE | $12,969,000 |
DT | $9,470,000 |
LB | $11,322,000 |
CB | $11,631,000 |
