Did the same "little birdy" tell you that K-State hired Gary Patterson?

I don't like it.  The window for RBs to sign a big contract are fairly small seeing as how they wear down quicker than the average player.  He now needs another big year to get a long term deal, granted this year he will get paid really well.  We'll see, but I'm not sure its the best deal.

i depends if SD offers a good multi-year deal. i could see them giving him a 3-5 year deal front loaded so he makes more than what he will with the franchise tag in the first year/2 of the contract.

then again maybe not.

either way he is pretty much set.

GOCATS!!!

if you franchise a player it's only a 1 year contract.

if you franchise a player it's only a 1 year contract.

i know.

it also gives you several months to negotiate a longer term deal.

tagging a player does not mean you cant sign him to a different contract/contract terms afterward.
