Signed franchise tag; expected to play out season despite contract desires.

George PickensWR

Pickens signed his franchise tag and showed up to everything; the source expects him to play out the season despite wanting a contract beyond this year. If he unexpectedly held out, he would drop from the back end of wide receiver one tier (alongside Nico Collins) to the T. Higgins tier (15s-16s), enough to knock him down a tier but not much further. First year with the team last year, clicked immediately, so not too concerned for the entire season.
