Bucs draft busts.

   Pewter Report has a video up on their site of biggest Buc draft busts which is pretty good. Check it out here. The draft is at the end of the month and I’m not big on mock drafts myself but I’ll put something together to try and guess what the Bucs will do with their [...]

Bucs report- Gruden,Glazers

   All is eerily quiet on the Bucs homefront still so I dug up a couple tidbits for the Buc addicts from the St. Pete Times…

   The Bucs aren’t going to receive any compensatory picks in the draft at the end of the month. There were some hopes, I think due to Dewayne White, that [...]

Herm Edwards is a whiner.

   Herm Edwards has accused the Bucs of tampering. Really Herm?! I used to have alot of respect for Herm Edwards but after hearing him whine about Larry Johnson, Chad Pennington, etc… over the last few years,  and now the Bucs and Rams, he’s really just beginning to sound like a whiner. Apparently Herm’s upset over [...]

Bucs report-Carter back.

   In what has transpired to be a boring off-season the only news to report is the Bucs have retained DL Kevin Carter. Carter was a productive player for the Bucs last year in a limited role rotating with Gaines Adams, Greg White and the rest of the linemen. He was released just before the [...]

Bucs report

    There’s not a whole lot to report on in Bucs land but….

   The Bucs have officially signed S/CB Eugene Wilson. The deal is for one year and $1.8 million with $500,000 in guaranteed money. The St. Pete Times is saying that Wilson will be a nickel CB as most thought.
   Rick Stroud at the Times [...]

Bucs report

   There’s a couple things for the Bucs…

   According to pewterreport.comfree-agent wide receiver D.J. Hackett is visiting One Buc Place today. I guess if we sign enough injury riddled formerly productive players we’ll get something in return.
   A couple notes from Rick Stroud at the St. Pete Times show that the Bucs officially lost Kalvin [...]

Marinelli catching heat in Detroit

   I know its not directly Buc related but according to Stephen Holder of the St. Pete Times the Lions are being questioned for bringing in formers Bucs. In an article by Rob Parker, who Holder says is his buddy, Parker is giving Lions head coach Rod Marinelli and defensive coordinator Joe Barry (both former Buc [...]

Breaking Bucs news, Dunn coming home.

   In a late move today the Bucs have apparently convinced RB Warrick Dunn to come home. Dunn has reportedly agreed to a two year deal worth around $6 million. I definitely like this move as it brings a little old flavor back to town and provides more depth to the RB position. We now [...]

Bucs report

   A couple of tidbits for the Bucs today…

   Free agent WR Antonio Bryant was signed today. Bryant is a journeyman with talent who has bounced around the league the last few years due to legal issues and attitude. Every year the Bucs bring in a reclamation project who has had off field issues. It sort [...]

Bucs lose Kelly to Lions

   No real surprise here but CB Brian Kelly has apparently inked a three year deal with the Detroit Lions. The dollar amount has yet to be released but I’d expect it to be something like 6 to 8 million in guaranteed money. BK has been a mainstay since he was drafted in the second round [...]

Bucs Report (A little Gruden bashing)

   Nothing new here. I just wanted to rehash something that was brought up on the Ron and Ian showyesterday where it does seem that no one seems to be in a hurry to come play for Jon Gruden much less defend his antics. I completely agree with these statements and I hope Gruden has [...]

Bucs scouting Bulls.

   Monte Kiffin was at USF’s pro day today taking a look at some of the Bull’s players, in particular LB Ben Moffit and CB Mike Jenkins. Jenkins decided not to run the 40 today and let the 4.38 he ran at the combine stand. The Bucs are possibly looking at drafting a defensive player [...]

Site features

   We’ve added some new gadgets to the site and there will be more changes coming. As you can see on the right we’ve added some widgets from ESPN to help keep you updated on the news and scores of our local teams. The layout is going to be played with and some things will [...]

Bucs report

   A few things to catch up on with the Bucs today.

   TE Anthony Becht was lost to the St. Louis Rams. Becht is primarily a blocker who signed a two year deal with the Rams.
   The Bucs filled the void left by Becht by signing former Titan and, more importantly in our area, former [...]

Bucs report

   The only real thing to report on today is that CB Brian Kelly visited with the Detroit Lions today. I would love to see BK back in a Buc uniform but he has been injury prone over the last couple of years and the way people are throwing money around right now I don’t see [...]

Is anyone else already sick of hearing about Brett Favre?

   No offense to Brett Favre here but I’m so tired of this already! Brett has been one of the best quarterbacks in history, no question, but all day yesterday, today and with no end in sight of this endless blather over a guy who goes through this every year is making me not want to [...]

Walker off Bucs list.

   Javon Walker has duped Al Davis (doesn’t seem so hard to do anymore) into giving him a 6 year $55 million contract. What?! It amazes me how Davis has become so ignorant with NFL players and contracts, it also amazes me how a player would be willing to sign with the Raiders. I know [...]

Bucs report

   The Bucs signed a few depth players today. They signed OLB Matt McCoy and MLB Teddy Lehman to add to the linebacking core. McCoy is a 2005 second-round pick who has been with Philadelphia and New Orleans and likely will fill special teams and reserve rolls. Lehman, a 2004 second-round pick, started every game his [...]

New feature.

   What we will begin now is a new feature which is common in other blogs and networks but with what we cater to here it should be unique for our site. We’re going to have a daily report on each major team in the area, Lightning, Bucs, Rays and Magic. With the Bulls, Nascar, [...]

Bucs free agent round-up. (So far)

   I know I need to get to the big Jeff Faine signing but I think what we’ll do from here since we got put behind is we’ll just follow the signings and randomly go over them when things are slow. So far these are the guys the Bucs have let go or are free-agents.

RB [...]
