what do we do about bo scaife?

As good as he's looked this year, there's no way they don't pursue an extension. And if they can't reach an agreement with him, I wouldn't rule out the possibility of tagging him, which would cost around $5M.

 

Crump wont be around for more than 3 more seasons, Scafie is good and has more time

 

With our top receivers like Gage, McCareins, and Jones saying someone is the best of that group is similar to them winning the special olympics.

 

Scaife will be gone next year. So will be jones, mccareins, fuller, reynaldo and yes maybe bironis. That's the price we will have to pay to keep haynesworth and collins. Hopefully we can get deals for king and loper 2 good depth guys who won't cost much and we will need to get some good WRs.



The key here in my mind is to draft TEs and WRs rather than looking for a big DT and another QB.


In short we probably can't afford him and with the numbers he will have this year he will get $4.5 maybe even $5 million a year. Scaife is on pace for 700 yards.

 

trade him while his value is somewhat high

 

Collins will be gone. We aren't stupid, or not stupid enough to pay a 37 year old quarterback any sort of money, and unproductive one at that.

Scaife and Fat Albert will likely stay, Scaife because of his friendship with Young and other teamates. Albert because of his history with Tennessee (college, etc).

BJ, McCareins, Bironas, and KFC will all likely leave.

 

I don't think Bironas will leave.....he is an integral part of our success and I really think he enjoys it.

 

Not saying he doesn't enjoy it, but whos to say he can't enjoy it and millions more somewhere else? Kickers are a dime a dozen in this league, so there would be no reason to overpay him, unless he truely wants to stay with the team and is willing to take less then he would get somewhere else.

 

FWIW, I think you have to make a solid offer to Scaife. He may be our most competent receiver. Obviously Haynesworth gets the most attention, but after that Scaife. We need at least 2 good TE. I'm not convinced the new guy is ready, and Crumpler does not seem the threat he once was.
