The franchise tag window opened on Tuesday, giving teams until March 9 to apply the tender to a player of their choosing. Teams can only use the tag once per year, so if there are multiple candidates, they’ll have to choose wisely.
Though the exact amounts haven’t been set yet, we have a good idea of how much the franchise tag will cost at each position thanks to Over The Cap. The Rams have plenty of players hitting the market in March, but only a pair of them is worth considering for the franchise tag, given the high cost for the one-year pact.
The Rams haven’t used the tag since 2018 when they applied it to Lamarcus Joyner, passing on the chance to tag a player in 2019 and 2020. Could that change this year?
