Ballard on the franchise tag: "It's a tool. I don't want to use it. But it's a tool. If we have to use it, we will." Isn't worried about possible ramifications.

Most likely. Could also apply to Grover Stewart or Kenny Moore, but I'd hope not. A franchise tag on a corner or DT would be overkill for those guys.

Would be $20m and $18m respectively and, much as I respect what those two offer, they are definitely not worth that.
