Today marked the deadline of teams having to sign their franchise tagged players to long-term deals and some teams got theirs done in the nick of time. The Chicago Bears signed running back Matt Forte to a four-year deal and the Baltimore Ravens signed their stud running back, Ray Rice, to a five-year deal.

Meanwhile, the Bengals failed to sign their franchise player, kicker Mike Nugent, to a long-term deal. Think it was a wise move? Should they have tagged another player instead of Nugent?
