Then came offseason and I made the terrible decision of franchising him in the first stage. Then came the next stage and I couldn't sign him for any money because of this crap.
Is there anyone who has played a lot know how to get out of this? I don't suppose I can franchise him every year long term. But I can't lose a top QB, that would just ruin the game for me.
Clusterf#$$# situation. I don't think I'll ever franchise another player. Crap.

A hold out not rewarded with a new contract and a franchise tag the next off-season, that's strike two, which in this game is out. I think you're stuck with re-tagging the QB every next off-season from here on.
