Agent's Take: Ten players who could get slapped with a franchise tag
By Joel Corry | Former Sports Agent
November 19, 2013 11:59 am ET
Fred Davis was a second-round pick in 2008 for the Redskins. (USATSI)
Fred Davis was a second-round pick in 2008 for the Redskins. (USATSI)
The Washington Redskins used their franchise tag on tight end Fred Davis in 2012 after he caught 59 passes for 796 yards and three touchdowns in 12 games during a 2011 campaign that was cut short by a four-game suspension for violating the NFL's substance abuse policy. Unable to work out a long-term deal, Davis accepted his $5.446 million franchise tender. He was considered one of the NFL's better pass-catching tight ends when he tore his left Achilles tendon in the seventh game of the 2012 season. Since Davis had limited interest in free agency because of the injury, he returned to the Redskins this season on a one-year, $3 million deal (with an additional $750,000 in incentives).
Davis is having a disappointing 2013 season. After dropping behind rookie Jordan Reed and Logan Paulsen on the depth chart, the Redskins shopped Davis before the October 29 trading deadline but couldn't find any takers. Davis has been inactive for the last five games and is expected to remain so for the rest of the season unless the Redskins have an injury at tight end. It will not be a surprise if Davis has less interest as a free agent in 2014 than he had this year when he was recovering from the Achilles injury.
Davis' situation is a prime example of why players dislike the franchise tag. It hinders their ability to gain long-term security. The franchise tag is essentially a high-salaried one-year "prove it" deal where players incur the risk of serious injury and poor performance again after already playing out their contracts. Here's a look at the state of the franchise tag and some of the players who could be franchised in 2014.
Types of franchise tags
NFL teams can retain the rights to one of its impending free agents with the use of a non-exclusive or an exclusive franchise tag during a two week window beginning on February 17.
With the non-exclusive franchise tag, a player must be offered a one-year contract based on the average of the non-exclusive franchise numbers at his position over the last five years and their percentage of the current year's salary cap or 120 percent of his prior year's salary (usually salary cap number), whichever is greater. This tag allows the player to negotiate with other NFL teams but if he signs an offer sheet with another club, his team has five days to match the offer. If the offer is not matched, his team will receive two first-round picks as compensation from the signing team.
Under the exclusive franchise tag, a player will receive a one-year offer from his team that is the greater of the average of the top five salaries at his position once the restricted free-agent signing period has ended (May 2) or 120 percent of his prior year's salary. A player cannot negotiate with other teams with the exclusive franchise tag.
Teams usually opt for the non-exclusive tag. However, quarterbacks are more likely to get the exclusive franchise tag than any other position.
Franchise tags changes
The 2011 Collective Bargaining Agreement changed how non-exclusive franchise tags are determined. Previously, these franchise-tag numbers were the average of the five largest salaries in the prior year at a player's position instead of being based on a five-year period. There was a substantial annual increase in franchise tags before the change in methodology. The numbers increased by 14.4 percent from 2009 to 2010 and by 17.1 percent from 2010 to 2011.
A record 21 players were franchised in 2012, including six kickers and punters, in the first year of the new methodology when there was almost a 20 percent drop in the franchise tags from 2011. Teams were more judicious with franchise tags this year. Just eight teams used the designation and only one of the eight designated players signed a multi-year deal. The franchise tag was originally intended for marquee players as a precursor to a long-term contract but has become a tool that restricts a team's best free agent in a given year from entering the open market.
2014 franchise tag projections
The chart below contains an early look at the 2014 franchise tags. They are preliminary because the numbers can't be finalized until the 2014 salary cap is set in late February or early March. Based on my conversations with a few NFL front-office executives, the cap is expected to be somewhere between $125 million and $128 million in 2014. I used $126.5 million, the midpoint of these figures, in my calculations. For comparison purposes, I have included the current franchise tenders and what they would have been in 2014 under the old method of calculation in the chart.
Cornerback $10,854,000 $11,256,000 $12,417,000 3.7% 10.3%
Defensive End $11,175,000 $12,475,000 $12,756,000 11.6% 2.3%
Defensive Tackle $8,450,000 $9,182,000 $10,267,000 8.7% 11.8%
Linebacker $9,619,000 $10,895,000 $12,877,000 13.3% 18.2%
Offensive Line $9,828,000 $11,126,000 $10,974,000 13.2% -1.4%
Punter/Kicker $2,977,000 $3,383,000 $3,902,000 13.6% 15.3%
Quarterback $14,896,000 $16,086,000 $17,324,000 8.0% 7.7%
Running Back $8,219,000 $9,074,000 $10,011,000 10.4% 10.3%
Safety $6,916,000 $8,021,000 $9,380,000 16.0% 16.9%
Tight End $6,066,000 $6,709,000 $8,216,000 10.6% 22.5%
Wide Receiver $10,537,000 $11,539,000 $9,731,000 9.5% -15.7%
Note: Projections assume 2014 salary cap is $126.5 million.
The franchise numbers would be 7.3 percent higher collectively under the old formula. Wide receiver and offensive lineman are the only two positions better off with the new method of calculation. The across-the-board increase in franchise tags is projected to be 10.3 percent, which is up from a 6.9 percent increase this year. The higher growth in the numbers means use of franchise tags will probably be more in line with this year than 2012.
2014 franchise tag candidates
New Orleans Saints (Jimmy Graham-TE)
Jimmy Graham has been targeted 91 times so far this season..(USATSI)
Jimmy Graham has been targeted 91 times so far this season. (USATSI)
The Saints' use of Graham like a wide receiver complicates negotiations for a new deal because top wide receivers make significantly more money than top tight ends. Expect Graham to file a grievance to be classified as wide receiver if franchised since franchise tags are determined by the position where the player participated in the most plays during the prior season. Graham would gain tremendous leverage in negotiations by winning an arbitration hearing on his franchise-tag position because there will be close to a $5 million difference between the wide receiver and tight end franchise numbers in 2014.
Chicago Bears (Jay Cutler-QB)
Chicago's wait-and-see approach with Cutler hasn't provided clarity on making a long-term commitment to him because he's missed games with groin and ankle injuries. The surprising play of backup quarterback Josh McCown in Cutler's absence is a new variable in the equation. The decision on Cutler can be delayed for another year with a franchise tag. If the Bears choose this route, taking Cutler completely off the market with an exclusive franchise tag may not be necessary provided that the highly rated underclassmen quarterbacks declare for the 2014 NFL Draft as expected. Their availability could impact interest in Cutler from other NFL teams. The exclusive franchise tag is preliminarily projected to be $19.266 million in 2014, which is over $3 million more than the expected non-exclusive tag. It could decrease if quarterbacks (Eli Manning, Ben Roethlisberger, Tony Romo, etc.) with the highest 2014 cap numbers restructure their 2014 contracts to create cap room for their clubs before the end of the franchise-player-designation period (March 3), which is the cut off date for restructured contracts to be included in exclusive franchise tag calculations.
Buffalo Bills (Jairus Byrd-S)
Byrd's relationship with the Bills became acrimonious when the team refused to sign him to a multi-year contract in line with the top of the safety market ($8.25 million per year/$22 million guaranteed) after designating him as a franchise player. He missed a majority of the preseason in a contract dispute before signing his $6.916 million franchise tender. There has been some speculation that Byrd may have played through the plantar fasciitis in his feet which kept him out of Buffalo's first five games if he had been given a long-term deal. Buffalo could franchise Byrd for a second time at $8,299,200, 120 percent of his current franchise tender, with the intention of trading him. The New England Patriots used this tactic with Matt Cassel in 2009 when he was dealt to the Kansas City Chiefs as a franchise player.
Denver Broncos (Eric Decker-WR)
Denver's limited championship window of opportunity with Peyton Manning could dictate what happens with Decker. The Broncos must decide whether they want to invest heavily in two wide receivers. Decker has produced like a number one wideout but teammate Demaryius Thomas is one of the NFL's best young wide receivers. Since the start of the 2012 season, Decker ranks 14th in the NFL with 139 receptions, 11th in receiving yards (1,856 yards) and is tied for sixth in receiving touchdowns (16). Thomas, who is under contract through the 2014 season, should become one of the NFL's highest-paid receivers on his next deal. The Broncos run the risk of another team paying Decker like a primary wide receiver if he becomes a free agent.
New England Patriots (Aqib Talib-CB)
Aqib Talib routinely matches up against opposing teams' No. 1 wide receiver.(USATSI)
Aqib Talib routinely matches up against opposing teams' No. 1 wide receiver (USATSI)
The 2008 first-round pick emerged as a shutdown cornerback in his second season with New England before a hip injury in Week 6's contest against the New Orleans Saints sidelined him for three games. Talib returned to the Patriots, who acquired him from the Tampa Bay Buccaneers at the 2012 trading deadline, on a one-year, $5 million contract (with additional $500,000 in incentives) because his numerous off-the field incidents made teams wary of giving him a long-term deal. Although Talib has been a model citizen since the trade, the Aaron Hernandez ordeal brings the franchise tag into the picture because the Patriots would open themselves up to criticism for making another big financial commitment to a character risk.
Carolina Panthers (Greg Hardy-DE)
Hardy is a key component of one of the NFL's best defenses. The Panthers are ranked first in scoring defense and third in total defense. After a 2012 breakout year with 11 sacks, Hardy is having a comparable 2013 season. He recently rejected a four-year, $32 million extension. Hardy could have his sights set on a contract similar to the six-year, $76 million deal (including $32 million in guarantees) Charles Johnson, his Carolina defensive end counterpart, received in 2011 to re-sign with the Panthers. It is expected that the Panthers will make another attempt at signing Hardy to a long-term deal before the March 3 franchise-tag deadline.
Dallas Cowboys (Jason Hatcher-DT)
Hatcher is having a career year in his switch from 3-4 defensive end to 4-3 defensive tackle. He is leading NFL interior defensive lineman (along with Jurrell Casey) with seven sacks. Conventional wisdom suggests that the Cowboys will let Hatcher enter free agency where his age could be a factor since they are projected to be in the neighborhood of $30 million over the 2014 salary cap. Hatcher will be 32 years old in 2014. Dallas was in a similar position last year with the cap but still made defensive end Anthony Spencer a franchise player for a second straight year at $10,627,200, which is more than it would cost to franchise Hatcher.
Tennessee Titans (Alterraun Verner-CB)
Verner has 11 career interceptions over four seasons.(USATSI)
Verner has 11 career interceptions over four seasons. (USATSI)
Verner was a popular choice for midseason All-Pro teams. Quarterbacks had a 23.0 passing rating and were only completing 40.5 percent of passes (17 completions in 42 attempts) heading into the Week 11's games when targeting Verner according to Pro Football Focus. Verner is also tied for the NFL lead with five interceptions. It might require more than the five-year contract extension Jason McCourty signed with the Titans in 2012 averaging slightly more than $8.6 million per year (with $17 million in guarantees and $3 million in salary escalators) for Verner to remain in Tennessee long term.
New York Giants (Hakeem Nicks-WR)
History suggests that the Giants will let Nicks hit the open market. The Giants have only used a franchise player designation three times since the franchise tag system's inception in 1993. The development of Rueben Randle should cushion the blow if Nicks prices himself out of New York with his contract demands.
Cleveland Browns (Alex Mack-C or T.J. Ward-S)
First-year Browns CEO Joe Banner was aggressive in retaining key players when he ran the Philadelphia Eagles. That approach hasn't applied to Mack and Ward, Cleveland's two best impending free agents. The franchise tag would give Mack a nice one-year financial windfall because it doesn't account for the salary differences at the three main offensive line positions (center, guard and tackle). Nick Mangold is the only center with a 2013 cap number above $6.5 million. The same issue doesn't exist with T.J. Ward. The safety franchise tag number is more indicative of the strong safety marketplace where Kam Chancellor's $7 million contract extension in April is a recent data point.

While most actors dream of winning a little gold statue -- and some even admit to rehearsing their speeches into hairbrushes -- there are a few holdouts who want nothing to do with the Academy Awards.
Actors who dislike the Oscars
8 / 11
Anthony Hopkins
Anthony Hopkins, who has already won an Oscar for "Silence of the Lambs" and has critical buzz for "Hitchcock," knocked the actors who play nice with Hollywood bigwigs to improve their award show chances. "I can't stand all that. I find it nauseating to watch, and I think it's disgusting to behold. People groveling around and kissing the backsides of famous producers and all that. It makes me want to throw up, it really does. I've seen it so many times," he told the Huffington Post. "I think, 'What are they doing? Don't they have any self respect?'"

When using XCode4 I created a new branch and implemented a very small method on this new branch. I saw that the branch was working properly so I made a commit on this new branch and then switched back to my main branch. I merged the two branches together (the new one into my main branch). Now my project is not working.
The exact same thing happened yesterday. I never found the problem so I started over from the beginning on this current project. What is causing this?

Illinois Fighting Illini vs. the UCLA Bruins is a postseason match-up in the major sport for both women and men. You'll see Illini vs. Bruins in both college football (Kraft Fight Hunger Bowl on New Year's Eve in San Francisco) and women's volleyball. Except in the latter it's "for all the Tostitos" (yeah I got sick from just saying that). Colleen Ward and Michelle Bartsch led the Illini (32-4) in a five set upset win over the Bruins' intra-city rival USC. They beat the 29-5 Trojans who lost in the semis in back to back years. This is Illinois' first semifinal in 23 years and first ever title game. They'll take on UCLA on Saturday night in San Antonio's Alamodome. It's probably on ESPN2 but check local listings. Coincidentally, the Illini beat UCLA when they won their national title in tennis. And out of the 17 bowl games Illinois has played UCLA 4 times, nearly a quarter. The Bruins have won three national championships, but none since 1991. Here you can see Bruin Lainey Gera (p...

The Brooklyn Nets defeated the Miami Heat 101-100 in the home debut of Kevin Garnett, Paul Pierce and Jason Terry. "I had to stop looking in the crowd," Garnett said. "It was a huge distraction, but it was beautiful. The energy here is incredible." "That was electric," Terry said. "We feed off that. How can you not want to play hard every minute for a guy like that?" The rivalry between the Heat and Garnett and Pierce ramped up a few weeks ago when LeBron James described them as hypocrites for leaving the Boston Celtics a year after being so critical of Ray Allen's decision to sign with Miami.

The Magical Maze: Seeing the World Through Mathematical Eyes
John Wiley & Sons, Aug 23, 1999 - Mathematics - 288 pages
Enter the magical maze of mathematics and explore the surprising passageways of a fantastical world where logic and imagination converge. For mathematics is a maze—a maze in your head—a maze of ideas, a maze of logic. And that maze in your mind is a powerful tool for understanding an even bigger maze—the one of cause and effect that we call "the universe." That is its special kind of magic. Real magic. Strange magic. Infinitely fascinating magic. Acclaimed author Ian Stewart leads you swiftly and humorously through the junctions, byways, and secret passages of the magical maze to reveal its beauty, surprise, and power. Along the way, he reveals the infinite possibilities that arise from what he calls "the two-way trade between the natural world and the human mind." If you've always loved mathematics, you will find endless delights in the twists and turns of The Magical Maze. If you've always hated mathematics, a trip through this marvelous book will do much to change your mind.

When the Detroit Lions signed unrestricted free agent cornerback Dre' Bly to a five-year, $25.5 million contract this spring, salary cap managers around the NFL gasped and some general managers mumbled a string of obscenities under their breath.
After all, Bly had started just 25 games in four seasons with the St. Louis Rams, and was a full-time starter for only his final year with the franchise that had selected him in the second round of the 1999 draft. Handing the undersized Bly a gaudy signing bonus check of $6.5 million, some critics privately suggested, simply represented the latest example of fiscal irresponsibility by Lions management.
And, by extension, another dubious move by Lions team president Matt Millen.
Seven months after the deal, the monetary ramifications of the Bly contract still remain a subject of debate around the league, but no one can question the wisdom of adding to the Lions secondary a player who is certainly in step with one of the NFL's most burgeoning trends -- defensive players scoring touchdowns.
Ever since his freshman season at North Carolina, where he established the ACC record for career interceptions before departing to the professional ranks, Bly has known what to do with a football when it lands in his hands.
"I've never felt like (offensive players) were the only ones on the field allowed to score," said Bly. "There's nothing in the rules that says defenses can't score touchdowns. I have always been a big-play guy. I mean, that's just my nature, you know?"
One of the few bright lights in Detroit in another dismal season, Bly has already scored two times this season, once on an interception return and last Sunday on a 67-yard fumble runback. Of his 18 career interceptions, Bly has brought four back for touchdowns, all on returns of 48 yards or longer. No one can deny that Bly knows the way to the end zone.
Through seven weeks of this season, even though defensive scoring hasn't received as much attention as it has merited, defensive players certainly are following Bly to paydirt. It's as if there has been a Pied Piper turned loose on defensive units leaguewide, and he is magically leading a parade of non-offensive touchdowns, and at a record pace.
There is no shortage of irony here, since special teams scores have been so universally highlighted in 2003, despite the fact kickoff and punt return touchdowns are well below the 10-year average for this juncture of the season. But if the number of defensive scores continues at the current pace, it's going to be hard to ignore the rate of turnovers, and the fact so many are being turned into touchdowns.
There were 46 interceptions returned for touchdowns in 2002 and 24 fumble returns that resulted in scores. Since 1990, the average number of interception returns for touchdowns is 50. The average for combined scores via takeaway in that stretch is 79.3 and the league is on pace for 103 in 2003.
"Coaches have always preached about (defensive) scoring," said Patriots cornerback Ty Law, who has one of three New England touchdowns on interception returns. "It just seems like more players have that big-play mentality now. The message has sunk in. You get a 'pick' and head for the end zone. Everybody wants a piece of the action now."
Notable is that 8.6 percent of the 477 touchdowns scored in 2003 have been by either an interception or fumble return. That is the highest ratio, to this point in the campaign, since the 1995 season.
The Patriots have four scores on takeaways and four teams have three touchdowns on either interception or fumble returns. Just nine defenses have failed to score a touchdown off a takeaway. Not surprisingly, those nine teams have a combined record of 18-38. The only team among that group with a winning record is Carolina.
Around the league
Rumors have begun again that the aforementioned Matt Millen could be in trouble if the inept Lions don't demonstrate dramatic improvement by the end of this season. The talk surfaced this week, not surprisingly, following a particularly uninspiring performance by Detroit in last week's lopsided loss to the Dallas Cowboys. For now, the annual rumors of Millen's imminent demise appear unfounded, and owner William Clay Ford still owes his top football guy for two more seasons beyond this one, at a total salary of $6 million. But if the slide continues for a team that has just six victories in its last 38 outings, something is going to have to change in The Motor City. And since Steve Mariucci is being paid a league-high $5 million per year, and possesses a contract that runs through the '07 season, he's not going anywhere any time soon. That said, even "Mooch" is surprised at how the Lions have yet to respond, and perhaps a tad surprised at the lack of young talent. Millen has been roundly criticized for awarding fat free agent contracts to player like Dre Bly and Az-Zahir Hakim, but a bigger problem might be the inability to reinvigorate a roster that is the league's second-oldest. Yeah, that's right, second-oldest. Older even, in terms of players 30 or above and also in average age, than the Oakland Raiders. One thinks of the Lions and conjures up visions of youngsters like quarterback Joey Harrington or wide receiver Charles Rogers. But the Lions have 17 veterans aged 30 or older and the average chronological age of the roster is 27.5 years. "Hard to believe," said one NFC personnel director, "that they could be so experienced and so ungodly bad." One irony for a Lions team whose running game is mired in quicksand: Tailback James Stewart reported this week that the rehabilitation of his shoulder injury is progressing nicely and that he feels he could have contributed in the second half of the season. The only problem is that the Lions, who have been forced to throw the ball nearly two-thirds of their offensive snaps, placed Stewart on injured reserve in August, ending his season. The Lions could have gambled that Stewart would get back on the field at some point this season, and kept him on the active roster, and their lack of foresight in that regard should not go unnoticed.
By now, everyone probably knows that Atlanta Falcons owner Arthur Blank penned a letter to ABC Sports, apologizing for his team's shabby performance in the Monday Night game of Oct. 13. And most fans, even nationally, likely heard about how Blank bought a full-page ad in The Atlanta Journal-Constitution on Tuesday, to issue an open letter to fans, in which he commiserated with their current pain. Word likely has filtered down as well about how Blank met with players and coaches on Wednesday and strongly suggested they cease airing their grievances to the media. But what most people don't know is that Blank, who has done a splendid job marketing a once moribund team but now risks losing much of the freshly-cultivated fan base, is reaching out to some outside the franchise in an effort to get the Falcons back on track. ESPN.com learned this week that Blank has invited a group of player agents, the size of the group unknown at this point (although three have confirmed to us they've received invitations), to meet with him the second week of next month. Blank is seeking constructive input from the agents and, it seems, will also use the session to get better acquainted with the group.
One name that keeps appearing on the radar screen in Atlanta, assuming Blank opts to make a coaching change at the end of the year, is that of Dennis Green. It makes sense, too, given Green's incredible track record of success, ability to work with a young and developing quarterback, and the fact he was once represented by current Falcons vice president Ray Anderson. But that last piece of the puzzle doesn't fit as snugly as it once did, since Anderson and Green aren't nearly as tight as they were a few years ago. When Anderson moved from the agent community into the Falcons front office, Green chose not to stay with the Octagon firm for representation. He bolted instead to IMG, which already is quietly trolling the waters for job possibilities in his behalf for 2004, working behind the scenes to discern who might be interested in one of its many high profile clients. As a member of the league's workplace diversity committee, Anderson isn't about to stand in the way of a Green candidacy in Atlanta, and his long relationship with the coach could still be a factor. But it probably isn't as significant an element as it once was. As for Green, he is very interested in coaching again, and figures to have multiple job offers after this season. But for those folks at the University of Arizona, who are quietly pushing a Green candidacy there, well, forget it. Green has little interest in the college ranks and, according to reliable sources, zero interest in trying to clean up the Wildcats' mess.
Tired of the annual Corey Dillon rants? Yeah, we know, his silly explosion earlier this week drew yawns across the league. It's one thing for Dillon, arguably the only veteran on the Cincinnati roster who hasn't yet bought in to rookie coach Marvin Lewis, to vent about wanting a change of scenery. But for Dillon to suggest that there might still be a way to deal him to another team, more than a week after the league trading deadline, just accentuates how full of himself this guy can be when he is disgruntled. Dillon certainly is misguided in believing the Cincinnati organization floated rumors that Dallas might have had an interest in dealing for him before the trade deadline. That rhetoric was little more than a few agent rumormongers floating bad information. As for contentions in this space over the last couple weeks, that Dillon won't be back in 2004, his venting this week only enhances those odds. Lewis didn't keep Takeo Spikes around, even though he could have matched the Buffalo Bills offer sheet to him this summer, and retained the linebacker. If Dillon wants out, the smart money is that Lewis will satisfy him, but probably not until after next June 1, when the salary cap hit won't be so high. On, yeah, one more thing that Dillon isn't thrilled about: His contract actually includes "de-escalators" in 2004 and '05, which will reduce his base salary if he doesn't rush for 1,500 yards in those seasons.
This isn't concrete yet, but look for the Buffalo Bills to activate tailback and first-round draft pick Willis McGahee soon, and for him to make his debut in a Nov. 9 game against the Dallas Cowboys. The Bills have a bye after Sunday's game at Kansas City and that will provide plenty of preparation time for the former University of Miami star. Even with the re-emergence of tailback Travis Henry the last two weeks, the Bills feel that it will benefit McGahee to get some playing time this season. The rationale: Even if he gets just 7-10 snaps per game, the field time will enable McGahee to get through the initial mental hurdles and hang-ups that typically accompany any player returning from knee surgery. Any playing time McGahee gets this year, the Bills figure, will only make him that much better in 2004. Of course, Buffalo officials wouldn't feel that way unless they were convinced McGahee has recovered from the catastrophic knee injury, and that he is ready to go.
Miami coach Dave Wannstedt is playing coy about his choice of starting quarterback for Monday night's game at San Diego and won't announce whether Jay Fiedler or backup Brian Griese will get the nod. Neither player is completely healthy, with Fiedler trying to gut his way through a sprained knee ligament, and Griese still not fully recovered from the toe injury he sustained in preseason. But while the Dolphins remain cryptic over the identity of this week's starter, there is no camouflaging the fact the franchise intends to upgrade the position in the offseason. Fiedler has regularly missed wide-open receivers, most notably in the last two games, and hasn't had a 40-yard completion in four weeks. Griese, in his limited practice time, hasn't convinced coaches or personnel people that he is a long-term solution. So book this one: No matter how the rest of the season plays out, the Dolphins will make upgrading the quarterback spot their top offseason priority. Even though the coaching staff goes to great lengths to defend Fiedler, it knows that he isn't going to be a guy who ever gets the franchise to a Super Bowl. There has been plenty of rhetoric about Mark Brunell wanting to play in Miami, but don't count on it, for any number of reasons. The preference is to get a veteran for a year or so, maybe even Griese if he reduces his financial demands. But the push will be to get a quarterback in the draft, perhaps even the first round, or to trade for a young guy, like Drew Henson. There are financial ramifications with both quarterbacks. Fiedler is due a $2 million option bonus by next March 14, is scheduled to earn a base salary of $5.775 million, and has a cap charge of $7.57 million. Griese is due a roster bonus of over $5 million.
Another team that might have to begin considering the long-term situation at the quarterback position is the Oakland Raiders, who figure to be without Rich Gannon (sprained shoulder) for a couple games, once they return from this weekend's bye. The 2002 league most valuable player is starting to show some age, hasn't gotten outside the pocket much in 2003, and has a contract that rises big-time in 2004. The performance of third-year veteran Marques Tuiasosopo in replacing Gannon on Monday night clearly was an encouraging one. An excellent athlete, Tuiasosopo allowed his natural abilities to take over against the Chiefs, demonstrated poise in the huddle, and playmaker potential. But the current staff isn't nearly as sold on Tuiasosopo as was the previous one, and that's why the next couple weeks could serve as a key testing ground. Remember, coach Bill Callahan didn't draft Tuiasosopo, he inherited him. It was former coach Jon Gruden who really championed the selection of the former University of Washington star in the 2001 draft. So the youngster has something to prove to Raiders coaches and team officials when he gets his first start in place of the ailing Gannon. If he doesn't impress during his audition, Oakland probably will make some sort of change for 2004, and might consider acquiring Kurt Warner, Mark Brunell or Drew Henson.
One quarterback who remains unemployed, would love to play again even as a backup, but can't scare up a job, is Jeff George. The strong-armed veteran, ESPN.com learned, had a tryout in Denver earlier this week, and threw the ball well. Then again, George will be able to roll out of bed at age 60, and still out-throw most quarterbacks in terms of arm strength and accuracy. The Broncos, to the surprise of no one, chose to sign Jarious Jackson, who had been with them during four training camps, before being released this summer. Jackson knows the offense and Denver, with Jake Plummer ailing and Steve Beuerlein gone for the year, needed someone familiar with its design. But the Broncos aren't yet married to Jackson and know George is available and anxious. In fact, George has not filed retirement papers, and he won't. "I'm still looking at next summer, figuring out where I might be able to get into a camp, and feel like I can play three or even four more seasons," George said. "I'm not giving up yet. I don't want it to end this way."
There is no denying that the relationship between Dan Snyder and Steve Spurrier has been up-and-down this season and no doubt that this week was a tension-filled one at the Washington Redskins complex. In fact, although the general feeling (including by us) was that Spurrier would stay at least three seasons through the 2004 campaign, the possibility he could be gone at the end of this year can no longer be completely ignored. But let's put one bad rumor to rest: The release of Rob Johnson on Wednesday, when he was replaced by "street" free agent Tim Hasselbeck, did not result from a Spurrier decision to bench Patrick Ramsey and use Johnson as the starter when the Redskins resume play on Nov. 2 following this week's bye. Neither Ramsey nor Johnson had been apprised of a switch and that's because none was forthcoming. At least in this case, Spurrier was in concert with the personnel department and Snyder, in deciding to jettison Johnson and go another direction. The move is a risky one, of course, since the Redskins now have no backup on the roster who has ever taken a regular-season snap, and given that Ramsey has been knocked out of the past two games. "But the feeling was that, with (Johnson), there was nothing there for the future," said one Washington insider. "He was doing the things he has always done in the league: holding the ball too long, taking bad sacks, all that stuff. We just figured that, in Hasselbeck, there might be something there to build on." The Redskins personnel folks have had their eye on Hasselbeck since training camp. Part of that can be attributed to the fact that Washington's first-year pro scout Mike Kelly formerly worked in Philadelphia and is familiar with Hasselbeck from his days with the Eagles. There was no solid plan to sign Hasselbeck until he worked out so impressively on Wednesday, then the decision was made to dump Johnson, and sign the youngster two a two-year deal at the minimum base salaries. How long the Hasselbeck experiment lasts is anyone's guess, with Spurrier on Thursday mentioning the possibility of re-signing Danny Wuerffel, who was released at the end of preseason. Whether the Ol' Ball Coach is serious about Wuerffel, or merely tweaking Snyder by raising his name, remains to be seen.
Hard to discern the root source of the Redskins' pass protection problems, with the team having surrendered 26 sacks, and Ramsey being dumped 22 times. Is it maybe the college protection scheme Spurrier used at the University of Florida and felt would translate well enough to the NFL level? The tutelage of offensive line coach Kim Helton? Or a lack of personnel? The consensus around the league is that it's probably a function of all three elements. Spurrier has discovered there are serious flaws in his protection blueprint, Helton has never been regarded as one of the NFL's premier line mentors, and the players certainly have underachieved. Center Larry Moore, according to a couple pro personnel scouts, has been awful in 2003. There have been injuries at the guard spots and the club has been forced to shuffle there. And high-priced tackles Chris Samuels and Jon Jansen, especially the former member of that tandem, have not played well at all. Samuels had a tough first half of the '02 season, rebounded over the final eight games, but it struggling with speed rushers this year. The team has a lot of time and money invested in the tackles and expected much, much better from them.
During our research for a story on special teams that appeared on ESPN.com earlier this week, we queried coaches leaguewide for names of standout players on coverage units. A few names kept coming up and, foremost among them was Rod Smart of Carolina, who has been a standout cover guy and return man. Smart is, of course, the infamous "He Hate Me" from the XFL's one and only season. "He's a wild man," said one rival special teams coach. "He won't be blocked." Another name that frequently came up was that of Vikings safety Willie Offord. In camp, Offord battled for a starting job, but fell short in his bid. The second-year veteran, one Vikings coach pointed out, could have pouted about not getting a starting spot. Instead he took out his frustrations on opposition kickoff and punt return specialists. Smart and Offord might merit Pro Bowl consideration this year.
Speaking of the Pro Bowl, two fullbacks who certainly deserve consideration are Fred Beasley of San Francisco and Kansas City's Tony Richardson. The two have been very good for years but, because of politics and personal preferences, are always overlooked. But someone is out there as the lead-blocker for Priest Holmes on all those "stretch" plays and sweeps the Chiefs run, and Richardson is terrific in blitz pickup as well as in the lead-blocker role. As for Beasley, if you ever want to show your kids a videotape on how a lead blocker is supposed to clear the way for the tailback, get a copy of last Sunday's 49ers win over Tampa Bay. Beasley was nothing short of phenomenal, cutting down linebackers for tailbacks Garrison Hearst and Kevan Barlow.
Kudos to St. Louis coach Mike Martz who, even in the absence of Marshall Faulk, has figured out how to better balance his offense. What's more, Martz has committed to protecting the quarterback far better than he did in the past, and isn't using as many four- and five-receiver patterns. It seems to have finally dawned on Martz, one of the game's truly superior offensive minds in terms of pass pattern design, that he can't block seven pass rushers with just five linemen. It also seems to have occurred to him that he is good enough to get receivers wide open through motion, formation and substitution packages. As a result, Marc Bulger is getting more time to throw the ball and is being hit less.
A few personnel men who saw our Monday note in "The Morning After" about Chad Johnson, phoned to second the motion that the Cincinnati Bengals standout receiver is catching up to older cousin Keyshawn Johnson in terms of overall performance. Dating back to the start of the 2002 season, Chad Johnson has 101 catches for 1,725 yards and nine touchdowns. Keyshawn Johnson has 102 catches, 1,444 yards and six touchdowns. Unlike his more famous kin, Chad Johnson seems to have matured markedly over the past two years, and isn't screaming that he doesn't get the ball as much.
One personal note: Saturday marks the third anniversary of the death of longtime NFL scribe and close friend Steve Schoenfeld, mowed down by a hit-and-run driver as he crossed a street in Tempe, Ariz., and his loss doesn't get any easier to accept even as the years move forward. "Schoney" could be a royal pest, but he was universally respected around the league. No small feat, doing the scope of reporting he performed, and still being able to retain friendships with NFL and team officials. Three years later, I still miss the phone ringing every morning at 9 a.m., and I'm sure a lot of colleagues still do, too.
Punts: The release of Rob Johnson by Washington on Wednesday precipitated this mention: He has earned about $20 million-$22 million in bonuses and base salary over his nine-year career and posted just 12 victories . Now that the Colts have signed team president Bill Polian to a five-year contract extension, the move might accelerate talks with Peyton Manning. Among the issues raised by Manning during discussions was the future of Polian with the organization . Some observers in Carolina are wondering if tailback Stephen Davis is having problems with his shoulders again. Davis has logged a lot of carries and has certainly been slowed the past two outings . A tip of the cap is due Jets quarterback Vinny Testaverde, for the professionalism he demonstrated this week amid the news he will be replaced by Chad Pennington at some point Sunday . Some scouts feel that Rams No. 3 wide receiver Dane Looker is becoming a solid third-down player in the mold of former St. Louis wideout Ricky Proehl . If his return men continue to mishandle the ball so horribly, Dallas coach Bill Parcells will soon make a change and rookie Zuriel Smith could get a long stint on the bench.

YouTube blocks Lady Gaga channel
Lady Gaga's official YouTube channel has been suspended by the video sharing website.
People who click on it expecting to see material posted by the Born This Way singer are greeted with a simple message.
"This account has been suspended due to multiple or severe violations of YouTube's Copyright Policy," it reads.
Several online reports say it's because of a disagreement between the star and a Japanese media company.
Copyright violation
Lady Gaga recently appeared on SMAP X SMAP, a weekly TV show in Japan, to promote her new album.
During her ten minute set she performed a medley of songs featuring Born This Way, You & I and The Edge of Glory.
Footage of that performance has since been removed from other websites as well as YouTube.
On one it says the copyright violation claim is from Media Interactive Inc.
Google, which owns YouTube, said it does not comment on individual videos or accounts.
Lady Gaga is one of the most popular artists on the internet.
Her Bad Romance video has been watched nearly 400 million times on YouTube.
She also has more than 11 million followers on Twitter.

I recently moved to back to Germany (Geretsried, close to Munich) after spending 9 years in Dublin, Ireland. Before that I studied in Sønderborg, Denmark :)
I believe that I can be smart (well, at least sometimes ;), funny (might need some time to warm up though, especially around people I don't know), also at times I can be quite lazy..
I love travelling! If the weather permits, you'll often find me on the road taking trips through the nature with my motorbike or car, going to unknown destinations. It happens every now and then that I'm getting lost in the complete wilderness, but I'm usually quite good at finding my way back again. And if I should get stuck somewhere, I've got my GPS to help me out :)
My interests are: Photography, reading, movies (I bought a projector to be able to enjoy them even more!), and generally spending my time doing random stuff ;).

Artisan: Doña Jerónima Juárez
Doña Jerónima Juárez was born in the small village of San Pedro Las Huertas, near Antigua, Guatemala. She stopped attending school after the third grade in order to supplement her family's income by helping her mother sell vegetables in the marketplace.
Doña Jerónima's mother taught her to make worry dolls, a traditional craft in Guatemala. She recalls, "I was trying for 2 months to make the worry dolls; I made one but was not good enough then I undid the dolls and tried again and again and again lots of times."
Her perseverance paid off. Eleven years ago, she was able to found a small workshop, "Artesanias Multicolor," in the Colonial City of La Antigua Guatemala. She is able to employ fifteen artisans in the production of traditional and not-so-traditional handicrafts, including the "Worry Cats," a design she developed exclusively for the Greater Good Network.
With their livelihood no longer tied solely to the agricultural harvest, Doña Jerónima, her mother, and her three daughters continue to turn their traditional crafting skills towards the creation of new and unique designs.

Mohegans restore ancient burial ground
The Mohegans operate one of the world's most successful casinos and are among about 50 tribes in the U.S. that have managed to reclaim burial grounds or other sacred sites, said Suzan Harjo, president of the Morning Star Institute, an Indian rights organization in Washington.
In recent years, the Cheyenne and Arapaho tribes have preserved a massacre site in Colorado, while the Nez Perce have taken control of worship sites in Idaho, Harjo said. Several tribes in California who operate casinos also have reclaimed burial grounds, she said.
'More and more, the native people are using newfound wealth to purchase what should be theirs anyway,' Harjo said.
But several hundred burial grounds and other sacred sites remain threatened by development, according to Harjo.
