Bo Scaife was the top potential free agent tight end, but now he’s not going anywhere. It’s a smart for Tennessee, who gets a small silver lining for not having the option to franchise Albert Haynesworth.
Scaife was the number 16 fantasy tight end in standard leagues in two of the last three seasons. He was a borderline TE1 in PPR leagues with a team-leading 58 catches. I like Scaife as a player, but that’s roughly his fantasy ceiling. Not too exciting.
Awesome job by Florio and collegefootballtalk.com to award their national championship to Utah.
The Ravens seem likely to go after a receiver or two this off-season, whether through the draft or free agency. I was a huge champion of Mark Clayton, but the bloom is off the rose there. I was surprised to see how quickly he was taken in my partial re-draft in my dynasty league.
We give the Raiders a lot of crap in this space, so let’s applaud them for a strong start to the offseason. They re-signed cornerback Chris Johnson at a below market rate. They re-signed one of the best punters in football, Shane Lechler. And they are close to getting an improbable deal done with Nmandi Asomugha, which would greatly lower his cap figure. (They will franchise him without a long-term deal.) I even like them planning to take Jerry Porter back at a reduced rate.
Couple those moves with the wise decision to keep Tom Cable, helping their continuity, and Oakland has some positive momentum for the first time in a long time.
