The Franchise Tag: Ability to "steal" players?
I still follow Nick Wright, former 610 Sports talking head who has now moved to the Houston market.

He just posted the following series of tweets, advocating that the Texans (or any team, really) "steal" Dez Bryant from the Cowboys, should he get the franchise tag. He indicates the cost is 2-First Round picks:
Spoiler!


My questions to you all:

- Is this a thing that has been done?
- What's the policy?
- Are we in danger of losing Houston should he receive the tag?
- Would you pull the trigger on Dez, or another player, for 2-firsts?

You have to pay the guy AND surrender the 2 1st rounders, which is why it never happens.

Thing I wonder is the wiki article says the Cowboys, in this situation are "entitled" to two 1sts. Not guaranteed, but entitled.

.. Doesn't that allow a team like Dallas flexibility in preventing a guy like Dez from going to a rival by tagging him but allowing a team like Houston to acquire him for less than two firsts?

Hypothetically, of course.

Sure. But, they're guaranteed the 2 1sts if a team swoops in and signs him.

If we've learned anything, it's that overpaying for a WR when you don't have a QB is not a good idea.

Except you'd also be eliminating those 2 1st round fully guaranteed contracts.

Wright is right. Bryant is absolutely worth giving up 2 First rounders for a team drafting in the back half. He's only 26.

Not even a young proven commodity over two potential unknowns?
