In the first full length episode of the Quarantine Era; Nick, Sean, Cory and Jonathan “Boomtown” Gillham discuss NFL Free Agency, E-Sports and more. We are taking a one week hiatus from uneducated picks, but will be back with a double session next week that you can vote on as well! Be sure to check back every Monday at 7pm for a new episode!
NOTE: In the first episode, there were a few technical difficulties with our conference call. Sean had a slight delay, and it is noticeable in the weekly discussion. This will be fixed next week, and is fixed in all other sections of today’s show.
Weekly Discussion
Origin Story: Transition Tag
You may have seen the Cardinals place a “Transition Tag” on Kenyan Drake. What is that?
This is a way for teams to retain their rights to an upcoming unrestricted free agent. This essentially gives the team rights to match any offer given to the player by another team. This is similar to a Franchise Tag, yet allows the team to pass on matching, or even sign the player to an independent contract.
