So assuming that JT returns to form, what would you do?
Sign him to a long term contract which is certain to be a $15M+ contract?
Franchise him which would probably be a contract in the $12M range?
Trade him? This is the least likely scenario. Ideally you would have to trade him this spring, especially if he could be used to move up in the draft . But after undergoing ankle surgery, the market will have little interest and his value will be low. He would probably have to be traded during season before the the trade deadline to receive maximum value.
I know that the Colts don't often do this, but I would lean toward the franchise tag.

i am usually a do not pay big on rb.
i think it depends on where the team is at. what contracts we have? whats our cap space? how has his pass blocking developed?
jt is a special player. if the money works then it works. but i would probably lean towards just letting him walk
