Will the Colts use their franchise tag?

The Colts have plenty of free agents they have to make decisions on. Some of those decisions involve the use of a potential franchise tag. Today is the last day they can slap someone with that tag. Is it something they end up using, or do they let the deadline pass?

First, let’s look at the potential candidates to get the tag. Clayton Geathers is one of those guys. The Colts have said they want to try to re-sign him. But if they don’t is the franchise tag an option? At safety, he would be paid over $12 million this season.
