Tag deadline is tomorrow and Detroit's Cory Redding got the latest one (at the lesser DT salary).

Ravens LB Adalius Thomas was not franchised yet. Interesting.

Also, there was an interesting tidbit from Adam Schefter on how Atlanta's Patrick Kearney avoided the tag: "Kerney still has two years remaining on his contract, which he will void Feb. 23, one day after the deadline that teams can use their franchise tags. No player under contract can be tagged, meaning Kerney has found a loophole into free agency and will not be tagged the way Indianapolis' Dwight Freeney and Cincinnati's Justin Smith were. Some reports have said the Falcons were considering franchising Kerney, but that is not the case." Very creative.
