    I don't care if the tag is a smart or stupid decision...I was having a conversation about him being a top 5 TE.

    Do you understand this?
    Sorry I tried to ask you a question to find out what you thought about it to find out your too dumb to actually have any comment on the franchise tag.

    I was legitimately curious what you thought about it, and then you reminded how you have to be a douche about anything and everything all the time.

    I am just tired of you being a complete and utter moron.

    Your capacity to understand what is being said is the lowest I have ever seen on here.

    Stop bringing up things that aren't being discussed.(at least by me and you are directing your posts at me)

    If you want to ask me a question, that's fine...Doing it in the matter in which you do it makes you look like an idiot and constantly harping on the same thing over and over again, when it is not even anything I am discussing, is annoying as hell.

    So yea, I am going to lash out at some point because I can't deal with the stupidity for too long.

    To answer you question...I don't know because I don't know what the Skins finances are, what other options they have at franchising players or anything like that. He is a very good TE so if they feel he is important to them and they have the money to use the tag on him and he is their best option to use the tag on, sure, go ahead and do it...but obviously, that's just common sense and goes without saying.

    Thread title, Fred Davis to be Franchised. SG interpretation, opportunity to try and call poster stupid, a SG favorite thing to do, see post above.

    Issues aside, he is a top-5 TE, IMHO, so the money is right. I think it is actually pretty smart to franchise him rather than extend his contract. This way they can cut him without being hit with salary cap penalties if he screws up again (and incurs a one year suspension).
    This initial quote you responded is about the merits of Davis AND the value of the tag on him in a larger picture...I was just trying to point that out.

    Who cares about the thread title? Have you ever looked at this site before? Threads get re-routed all the time. I made a comment about one thing and here you come, crying.

    I am not calling anyone stupid until you were a little baby towards me.

    You are directing a conversation at me that i am not even having and using the context of that conversation, as if it has anything to do with my point..on top of that, you have done it a few different times, ignoring the idea that I have said I am not even discussing that aspect of things.

    I was merely discussing whether he is a top 5 TE or not, that's all...and other people joined in that aspect of the conversation as well.

    So, you can either follow the conversation or, within the context of what is being said, get the topic back to what you wanted to discuss.

    What you did was a combo of both and then kept harping on it(even though it wasn't a point I was even discussing) to the point where you were just being annoying and I got fed up with that. Probably shouldn't have but you just plucked my last nerve, as you do so well.

    Using the tag on Davis is a no brain er if you ask me. He was trouble last year you have the one year cap hit and if he works out then he may get a good contract next year and if he screws up you have a decent guy in the draft that you drafted in the 5th round . I think tiers of players are easier to put players in rather then 1, 2, 3 actual best player. Davis could very easily be a Heap clone or he could be a Winslow. We find out next year.

    I don't think he'll ever get a really "good" contract. With that potential full year suspension over his head I imagine he's going to be year to year for a LONG time.

    If Davis is "probably not a top 10" guy, how did he stumble into the top 3 in ypg and up at the top of the league in receptions per game for a TE? Those other true top 10 guys must have had disappointing seasons.

    For the record, if I had to start a team today to compete over the next few seasons and every player was up for grabs with no contract/pending suspensions, i'd take VDavis, Gronkowski, and Graham well ahead of the fourth guy. But after that, Hernadez, sleepy, Finley, and Pettigrew would be in the running for the 4th and 5th guys.
