The Facts:
When NFL free agency officially kicks off at 12:01 a.m. Saturday, GM Phil Savage will receive a phone call from the agent of Givens. "There's about 12 teams [interested] and he can't visit them all," agent Brad Blank said. "I think if I'm successful in that first hour after [free agency] begins, I'll have it narrowed down to a few that kind of step up to the plate financially, and he'll go visit them."

Blank said he received calls from some teams, but not the Browns. He assumes the Browns, who have stated their desire to replace Antonio Bryant with a veteran to add "professionalism" and experience to the position, will be interested. "We've talked about Cleveland," Blank said. "He likes Romeo [Crennel]." Contrary to published reports, Blank said Givens is not committed to finding a team that would anoint him its No. 1 receiver.
