Is the Offensive lineman figure inclusive of all three positions? I cannot imagine that it would cost 8.267 million to transition a guard or center? I think has to be more OTs, but I may be wrong. Any insight?

It's probably Tackles. Mass email I got. I'll see what I can find out though

I think I remember hearing that it includes all line positions which is a reason why the Chargers won't franchise Dielhman.

I think that is correct because I thought the franchise tag did not distinguish between the O-line positions. This year's tag calculation for the O-line would include Hutch's contract last year as a guard and the rest would be tackles.

If you're a great TE you have very little bargaining power.

I haven't received a reply to my email. I'll hop over to NFLPA later see if I can't dig this up myself. I appreciate the reples it's just that both seem to make sense so I'd like to get a confirmation link one way or the other.

Under Section 7a "Salary Information" (bottom of pg 3 on the linked PDF file) of the Franchise and Transition Players section of the CBA, it lists only "offensive line" as the position for which the league must disclose the ten largest prior year salaries.
