ESPN: Five Players That Should Be Franchised
Who should be franchised? Why, the people with the cheapest tags, naturally. And Joe Flacco.

Offensive line problems highlight the needs in the NFC North ... except in Chicago, which is kind of unsettling to think about.

Five Players WHO Should be Franchised. GAH.
Re: ESPN: Five Players That Should Be Franchised
"That" can be used with people, though may not be preferred. "Who" can't be used with things. In some cases, "that" simply reads better - which I think it does in this case.
A little googling will find sites that go both ways :

Re: ESPN: Five Players That Should Be Franchised
The ESPN article linked uses 'who.'
Not sure that means anything, but there it is.
Re: ESPN: Five Players That Should Be Franchised
Yeah, that's the more acceptable usage, and probably something editors look for. But I see and hear "players that" or similar so much that I think it's becoming more common.
Re: ESPN: Five Players That Should Be Franchised
It's always been common.
Re: ESPN: Five Players That Should Be Franchised
I read all your articles! Thanks for all the interesting information.
Re: ESPN: Five Players That Should Be Franchised
And thank you for your total lack of specificity in your comment!!

"Keller was always perceived as a focal point for the Jets offense, yet when he got hurt last season, few noticed his absence."
Really? I think most people following the Jets found Keller's absence quite conspicuous. And I think his career DVOA has suffered by his having played for the last four years with one of the most inaccurate passers in the league.
Re: ESPN: Five Players That Should Be Franchised
Now, now. Let's be fair.
Last season Keller played with two of the most inaccurate passers in the league.

Re: ESPN: Five Players That Should Be Franchised
I never support such things because then those players become very costly to afford.
powder coating cost
Re: ESPN: Five Players That Should Be Franchised
So your advice would be to powder coat your free agents as an alternative to the franchise tag?
