Get the deals done you want done or draft/hire role players.
We still have to sign some core guys.
This.
The only time I think a team should use the tag is if they are about to lose a guy and have absolutely no replacement plan other than a rookie draft pick. In that case it might be a benefit to keep the free agent around for a year while his replacement develops. But generally the tag is a lose/lose situation. The player does not like the tag because it does not give him any long term security, and the team does not like to pay top 5 money for a player who is rarely worth it and does not even want to be there.
