Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
It's the second straight year Dawson has been franchised. Last year, he made $3.175 million as the Browns franchise playe, and was due a 120 percent raise with the second-year tag. The Browns can continue to negotiate a long-term deal with Dawson, who heads into his 14th season with the Browns. Dawson played in all 16 games last year, converting 24 of 29 field goal attempts and all 20 PATs for a team-high 92 points. He also made seven field goals of 50 yards or more, which tied for most in the NFL.
