interesting question

[tom]

If you have a player like Corey Redding, who played both DT and DE for the lions, and considering that many teams will look at him in either position, if he were to hypothetically get franchised, who picks the tender? When you consider that DTs get 2 million less, and many teams could look at him as a DE, should he get 9 or 7 million (aprox.)? And who would decide? The team? The player? The union? His playing time throughout his career? or in the last year of his career?

I read something about this yesterday. It's based on the position he logged the most time at.

I hope he doesn't get franchised, as a Giants fan. He'd make a great pass rushing DT for us.

That would make the most sense

He will get franchised. He will not be playing anywhere but Detroit next season. I can assure you of that.

Franchising him would be dumb and a waste.

And thats exactly why Millen will do it! Oh and draft Calvin Johnson........

I'm pretty sure the team decides, though I'm sure there is a way to keep them in check in case they try to franchise a QB as a kicker.

Why would it be a waste?

Even more funny is the fact they SHOULD do it.

I think Cory Redding is good, but he's not elite. Making him the franchise is paying him more than Co-DT Shaun Rogers makes.. and who's the better player?

*shrug* you started the trend. that said, that kind of crap response typically gets deleted out of hand now.

it isn't really all that funny nor has it been for the last two years. it's like the "raiders should take super-fast athlete X" joke.
