No. If the redskins apply the tag he would not be a free agent. The Skins would have his rights for the year, but until he signs it the skins could rescind it. Once he signs it becomes an exclusive tag as Mattys earlier link showed, so that means he can only negotiate with the Redskins. The transition tag obviously has a different path.
