This week's edition of the PFR mailbag looks into a pair of running back franchise tag possibilities. It also answers questions on the Cowboys' spring priorities, the Patriots' offseason plans and one of the top defensive players yet to be enshrined in the Hall of Fame.
Nathan asks:
Do you expect Breece Hall to be franchise-tagged? Will the Seahawks, especially with [Zach] Charbonnet's injury, turn to the tag to make sure Kenneth Walker stays?
Franchise tag figures for 2026 aren’t finalized yet, but the running bag cost is currently projected to be roughly $14.5MM. That is the lowest total for any position other than kickers, punters and long snappers, meaning the tag will once again be an attractive option for teams.
