Default Franchise Player Question

The rules for Franchising a player reads:

8B. Franchising

Once a players contract ends, they becomes a free agent, however, teams are allowed to designate up to 1 player as a Franchise Player. Once a team designates a Franchise Player, that player is considered part of their active roster and the tendered salary counts against the teams cap. THE FRANCHISED PLAYER WILL RECEIVE A SALARY OF THE AVERAGE OF THE TOP 10 PLAYERS AT THE FRANCHISED PLAYERS POSITION FROM THE PREVIOUS YEAR, OR A 20% SALARY INCREASE, WHICHEVER IS GREATER. The franchised players salary will count against the teams cap, starting April 1st.

My question concerns the part in capital letters. Do you include those players that are Free Agents or just those players that are on a (SACD) team roster?
