The franchise tag deadline came and went on Tuesday with nine players receiving the tag ahead of the new league year.

The Jets placed the tag on Marcus Maye, while ex-Jet Leonard Williams received it from the Giants. Maye, Williams and all the other tagged players now have until July 15 to work out a long-term deal with their respective teams.

While could-have-been Jets targets like Allen Robinson and Chris Godwin received the tag on Tuesday, New York will still have plenty of talent to court when free agency begins on March 17. Let’s take a look at potential Jets targets who were and weren’t franchise tagged on Tuesday.
