The Packers have a week to get a deal done with Davante Adams.
Tuesday, March 8 at 3:00 p.m. central time is the deadline for the Packers to make a decision whether they will use the franchise tag on the game’s best receiver.
If the Packers are even considering doing this, it is something that could potentially blow up in their face. Remember, players hate being tagged because they usually get less than they would get on the open market.
But it also hurts the team as well. Washington tagged Kirk Cousins in 2016 and 2017 — becoming the first quarterback to repeat as a franchise tagged player.
