6 NFL players who have been franchise tagged so far 

#4 - Dolphins tag TE Mike Gesicki

Houston Texans v Miami Dolphins

Dolphins TE Mike Gesicki received the franchise tag this morning. This could become problematic as Gesicki wants and thinks he should be tagged as a receiver where he would make more money.

#5 - Cowboys tag TE Dalton Schultz

Philadelphia Eagles v Dallas Cowboys

The Cowboys elected to franchise-tag TE Dalton Schultz just over an hour ago. Schultz had his most productive season last year with 78 catches for 808 yards and eight touchdowns. Like Njoku and Gesicki, Schultz is set to cash in $10.9 million, unless a long-term deal is reached.

#6 - Bucs franchise tag WR Chris Godwin for a second-straight season

New York Giants v Tampa Bay Buccaneers

Bucs WR Chris Godwin will be playing a second-straight season on the franchise tag. After the Bucs couldn't come to a long-term deal last off-season with Godwin, they tagged him with hopes of coming to a long-term deal. Unfortunately for Godwin, he tore his ACL late into the season which affected the Bucs' plans of reaching a long-term deal. It makes sense that he was tagged this off-season due to his ACL injury, but the Bucs could still come to a long-term deal with him.
