Why only 1 year added? This was basically a punt that helped both sides. Brees gets more guaranteed money to lessen the injury risk and the team gets the option to realistically use the tag after 2017 when it won't be $43 mil.
How can you use the tag if the contract is terminated?

How can you use a tag when a player's contract expires normally?
You have his rights until a certain day and decide if you will tag them before then.
Edit:
In other words the contracts for the just completed season are still valid before the FA period opens (so his 2017 contract is still in effect until 2018 FA opens). Since you still have his rights to that point you can choose to franchise him
