Raiders sign veteran TE Howard as possible Waller replacement

The Las Vegas Raiders signed veteran free agent tight end O.J. HOWARD as a possible replacement for fellow veteran tight end DARREN WALLER, who was traded recently to the New YorkMore Giants.

Among the flurry of moves made on the first official day of free agency, two that stand out for me were made by the Buffalo Bills. The splashiest one was signing pass rusher Von Miller away from the Rams, while a quieter -- but shrewd, I think -- took O.J. Howard away from Tampa Bay.   more »
