Teams have from today until March 5 to use a franchise tag. Free agency begins on March 13. Combine begins later this week.

Don't look for the Miami Dolphins to tag anyone, but this will mean some big name free agents (Drew Brees, Arian Foster) should get tagged and taken off the FA list.

I hope Mario Williams is not gone
i doubt that he'll be tagged,

But it doesn’t matter. He’d be too expensive for us to pick up unless we stick with just Moore at QB and he’s already come out and said it’s not about money and that he wants to stay with the Texans.

With Foster being a RFA, Mario's future with the Texans will be interesting.

It makes sense for the Texans to let him test the market to see what kind of money will be thrown his way, afterall, their defense continued to shine after he was lost for the season.

It will cost the Texans 21.99 million to tag Super Mario
