smoot definitely out there now-

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. ÃƒÂ¢Ã¢Â‚Â¬Ã¢Â€Â The unprecedented size of the franchise tag for cornerbacks, announced yesterday at the NFL Players Association's annual news conference, ensures the Washington Redskins won't place the tag on cornerback Fred Smoot.
It wasn't clear in recent weeks how seriously the Redskins considered the option as team officials played coy and coach Joe Gibbs repeatedly said such discussions were yet to be held. However, vice president of football operations Vinny Cerrato said last night Smoot definitely won't get the tag at a record $8.816 million.

8.8mil for cb's!? my how the world has changed, rb's are 6mil this year.
