You aren\'t getting me. I know Alexander MAY end up somewhere else, that is the point of being a free agent. But it is cheaper for Seattle to keep him with a franchise tag than Jones or Alexander. They also have several other key guys who are free agents. They have franchised jones the lasy two years as well and he seems content not to work out a long term deal, and why should he be when the franchise tag guarantees him so much. Temas build up animosity towards that sort of thing. Hasselbeck would be a starter elsewhere, but to franchise him is to pay him $9 mil dollars if he signs the tender. No way. On the other hand, not many RBs are making top dollar and that has to be the cheapest alternative of the 3. We will see though.
