Vikings Franchise Tag Greenway
Surely deserves its own thread
Vikings tag Greenway
Quote:
Greenway stands to earn around $10 million next year with the franchise tag but the opportunity is still there for the two sides to come to a long-term agreement which would lower the linebacker's salary after an agreement is reached for the Collective Bargaining Agreement.

Just beat me to posting that news skum!!
Here's a link to the Strib article as well
Vikings place franchise tag on Greenway
Well out of the choice between him and Rice then I'd pick Greenway every time.

I agree ... this is definitely good news.
Hopefully it means we are negotiating and going to get something longterm and it does not just leave Chad bitter and leaving after this season.
But at least for now, we are keeping him in purple one way or another ... and that is a good thing.
Re: Vikings Franchise Tag Greenway
very smart move. May be our best defensive player of the back 7.
Re: Vikings Franchise Tag Greenway
It was the only one that made sense.
Re: Vikings Franchise Tag Greenway
Agreed. Greenway has been solid every season - except his rookie, and that was a fluke. He's quietly put up very impressive numbers. I would MUCH rather pay him than Rice.

Re: Vikings Franchise Tag Greenway
Was to be expected but still amazing news
He's probably our most consistant and best D player.. He could play in a 3-4 or 4-3 and kill it anywhere
He likes it here and im sure we will be able to ink him for a long term contract
