Cardinals May Use Franchise Tag On Dansby
28th December, 2007 - 8:32 am
ESPN - The Arizona Cardinals don't intend to let big-play linebacker Karlos Dansby get away when he becomes an unrestricted free agent after this season.

If they can't re-sign him, expect the Cardinals to use the franchise tag to force him to stay.

"Karlos is a valued player, and he's recognized as being one of our core players," General Manager Rod Graves said on Thursday. "It's our intent to do everything we can to try to keep him here."

Dansby, who said he expects to be back next year, didn't mind the prospect of becoming a franchise player.

"I think it would be an honor," he said. "If that's the steps I have to take in order to get where I want to go, that's fine." [READ]
