Franchise Tags! 'Chutes tag QB @drewbrees for the 2nd year. GridironGang keeps @jcharles25 for hefty price of $66.98

Drew Brees was well worth the franchise tag last season, finishing second in scoring behind Peyton Manning. The CornChutes are banking on another Brees-like campaign.
Jamaal Charles was the top running back a year ago, and the Gridiron Gang has rewarded him with the franchise tag. Charles was franchise tagged once before – by the Fransburg (r)EvoLUtion, who dumped $50 on him only to see him spend the year on IR. Gang owner Jesse Garcia is hoping that the $66 price tag will garner him 16 games from his runner.
Last season Arian Foster earned the franchise tag from the Colliders, only to spend most of the season on IR.

Damn you Garcia!
I don’t think I will ever franchise tag a RB again, after last year’s Foster fiasco.
