Yeah plus you could create your own Free Agency Drama, I mean imagine Drew Brees still on the Franchise Tag and at the end of the year, maybe I let him hit Free Agency and sign elsewhere, and create a story out of it. Can the Saints replace Brees, who will they get to replace him, etc.
Can the Ravens re-sign both Joe Flacco and Ray Rice, does another player demand a trade, does someone hold out because he wants more money. You could remove that player from the depth chart who is holding out and not play him and make it seem like he is holding out, etc.
