The Bart Scott Saga. . .

Only a few years into a deal that was suposed to be a career move. After coach Rex Ryan convinced a great MLB to leave a defense that would've been the best in football the next season without his departure. Bart Scott was allowed to seek a trade, or at least that is what ESPN was reporting last night.

Surprising to say the least. The defense wasn't the problem last season. Unfortunately they were on the field a bit too much compared to years past. Because of the struggling offense. But that's neither here noe there. Let me get into some good fits for Scott.

First off I'd hate to see it, but Indy is a top candidate. With a new coach and at least some sort of a 3-4 hybrid I could see him being paired with Clint Angerer. That's be nice but if he's planning to seek a trade it's more than likely he's requesting a move because of the state of the Jets. I don't think he'll go to a rebuilding situation.

The Redskins just switched to the 3-4 last year with Jim Hasslett running there defense. Brian Orapko and Ryan Kerrigan both showed they could get to the QB successfully. And London Fletcher's a great MLB but he isn't getting any younger.

Also look for the Bills, Cowboys, Chargers, and Chief's to show some interest as well. As they are all looking to improve this offseason after underachieving last years on defense.
