Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
As of Thursday, ESPN.com insider John Clayton reports that Anderson, getting feelers from teams in need of quarterbacks, was considering rolling the dice and becoming a restricted free agent to see if there were teams willing to sign him to an offer sheet once free agency starts Friday. Savage, talking to the Cleveland media Thursday morning, said another team could make it difficult for the Browns to match an offer if they want him as a starter, although the Browns' plan is to retain Anderson and Brady Quinn as their QBs. The Browns have offered Anderson a three-year deal for about $20 million.
