[QUOTE="SanDiegoCheese, post: 415227, member: 5396"] First off, personally I wouldn't resign Finley. He's kinda like a square peg in a round hole for the Packers. He has a diva attitude as opposed to every other player on the receiving core. He's going to command A LOT of money, that could be spent elsewhere (pass rusher, beefing up O-line or D-line, etc) and the biggest reason he couldn't catch a cold in a Dr. waiting room. Week after week, he has shown he's not a dependable receiving TE. I'd rather take a flyer on Coby Fleener, TE, Stanford or Tyler Eifert, TE, Notre Dame. Either or both should be available in the 3rd-4th rounds. I don't see us franchising Flynn, this is how both franchise tags work: Exclusive: Player cannot negotiate with other teams and his salary is the greater of 1) 120% of previous year's salary or 2) average salary of the top 5 players playing the same position from the current year. Non-exclusive: Salary terms are the same except it's the average of the top 5 players from the previous year. Player can negotiate with other teams but current team reserves the right to match the offer. If it doesn't match the offer, it receives two first-round draft picks. [LEFT][COLOR=#000000]Taking into consideration these conditions, I don't see us franchising Flynn. We are more likely to franchise Finley and give him another year in GB to prove his worth than using it on a backup QB[/COLOR][/LEFT] [/QUOTE]
