"We are announcing [Wednesday] that we have placed the franchise tag on Nate Clements," Bills general manager Marv Levy said. "We consider Nate a valuable member of our defense and believe he will play an important role in re-establishing our defense as one of the toughest units in the league. At the same time, we remain optimistic that we will be able to work out a long-term deal with Nate in the foreseeable future."

Only about 5.8 million. We lucked out because the franchise tag for CB's went down 3 million.

Smart move, but he would be too costly and this team has other needs.

Probably, because rumor is that he is looking for a huge signing bonus.
