Each team can franchise on player whose contract is over each year.

A franchise is a one-year contract. The player cannot be franchised two years in a row, but can be again later in his career.

The team looks at all the players in the NFL at his position. They remove any other franchised players. Then, they average the top five player's salary and pay the player that much.

Once a player has been franchised, he cannot try to get a better deal.

If a player has the franchise tag put on him then traded does the team that gets his service have to respect the frachise tag?

If a player is traded, the franchise tag is basically null. The franchise tag applies only to free agency. However, if a team went through the effort and expense of putting the franchise tag on a player (paying that player the average of the top 5 salaries at the player's position), the possibility of them trading that player is highly unlikely.
