His track record suggests that I leave him the hell alone and let him do what he thinks is best. As far as the Jason Brown thing goes, the league does not divide the Franchise Tag up between line positions. All offensive linemen (and their salaries) are considered when a OL player has the Franchise Tag put on them (look here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Franchise_tag#2009_exclusive_franchise_player_costs_by_position and you will see what I mean. So while he would have been our center, he would have been franchised at a little over $8 million. So again, in Ozzie I trust.<BR/><BR/>But thanks for the comments, and please keep reading and talking!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06090367539863647427noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33224534.post-15201929050687609732009-03-11T12:11:00.000-04:002009-03-11T12:11:00.000-04:00My quick hits on the free agents. I will miss Leo...My quick hits on the free agents. <BR/><BR/>I will miss Leonard. Seemed like a hard worker. Scott can be replaced, he is good, but Ozzie is great at finding good LB. Brown (at one point you said about franchising him as a left tackle, he would have been franchised as a center, less money) was grossly overpayed, and was replaced by a veteran who still has a lot of potential. Re-signing Lewis is a great move to keep the city happy as well (sometimes you have to think about your customers), I also think he wouldnt get the same respect from another city.<BR/><BR/>With the upcoming resigning of Ngata next year, the Ravens are going to need to break down haynesworths contract- grossly overstated by the press.<BR/><BR/>anywho, i feel the ravens are still going in a great direction and cant wait for next year.Jay Zeishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06420745158411547253noreply@blogger.com
