Steelers placed the franchise tag on LB Bud Dupree.
Dupree set career highs with 68 tackles, 11.5 sacks, and 17 QB hits last year. The Steelers were expected to franchise him with no real progress being made in long-term talks. Dupree will make around $15.8 million if he plays under the tag, but he's a candidate to be extended before training camp.
