Tags are in

Happy Friday! I feel like less franchise tags this year than normal but who’s counting. On to the excitement of free agency. Derek Carr signs with the Saints and the Jets travel to the prince of darkness to get their QB. QB needy teams were very quick to let everyone know they will not pursue Lamar Jackson - let the collusion conspiracies begin.

Tag your it!

• Lamar Jackson - As predicted in our newsletter last week the Ravens go with the non-exclusive tag which lets Lamar try and get a deal elsewhere and if he does, BAL receives 2 1st round picks in return.

• In New York - Saquan gets tagged while QB Jones gets $160 Million

• Pollard, Engram and Josh Jacobs all tagged

Free Agency Dates:

• March 13-15 - Free Agency negotiation Period

• March 15th at 4:00 pm. Free Agency begins

Dynasty Rookie Ranks per Fantasy Pros consensus:

News & Notes:

• Big upgrade for all the Saints skill players with the addition of Derek Carr. A healthy Michael Thomas and Chris Olave will be moving up the draft boards.

• D Hopkins rumored to be traded before the draft.

• Brock Purdy surgery delayed and ready by mid September - not ideal per John Lynch. Imagine if San Fran had a QB.

• Joe Mixon’s home part of a crime scene? ADP dropping fast.
