Bucs looking at Incognito, traded for Mankins

Everyone keeps saying "just a 4th rounder" and are ignoring TE Tim Wright being in the deal. This could say something about the health of Gronk or just the fact that they want to go back to a solid 2 TE set. I can see him being a big part of their offense this year. 

 

Wright is a big, athletic TE who fits the Patriots perfectly and scoring 5 TD's and almost 600 yds in his rookie season is nothing to ignore. Plus it frees up $5.8m in cap space for them.

Valid.  That's part of the deal too.

 

Lovie Smith was recently quoted as saying that Wright "hasn't played as well as he should be playing" so I guess they're not that worried about parting with him.

I would hate trading the first four picks of the draft, especially for a 32 year old.

 

Do you need to look at our list of 4th rounders again?

 

Tre Boston

Edmund Kugbilla

Joe Adams

Brandon Hogan

Eric Norwood

 

I'd take a 32 year old all pro for all of our 4th rounders.

How have Amini looked so far?

And, I'm not sure many are wanting an OG. We want a LT and wondering why Gman can't make a similar move.

Amini wasn't a late round pick

I don't want the Bucs getting better. Even slightly better.

Agreed.   Their guard situation though ,  could be argued ,  as being worse than our tackle situation.    If they lined up a 300lb bag of wet sand out there between their LT and Center,  it would have made them better at the position than they were.

Not feeling this opener. I didn't drink the mccown kool aid but if they can just hammer the ball up the middle and then work play action off that we're done.

 

You're more worried about the defense than the offense?

 

(that's kinda unusual these days)

    • The difference is about how much player input is allowed and encouraged in the decision making process. Top down teams tend to dictate to players how everything is handled. Disagreements are handled by the coach and players are expected to do what they are told regardless of what they think or feel.  Players are perceived as commodities to be used until we find better. In player led teams player input is encouraged and valued. Players and especially leaders are expected to settle their own disagreements and be accountable to the team but mostly to each other. Players are family to be appreciated and supported in their growth. Is the reality of football the same in both? Yeah there are limited positions, football is a business and winning is the bottom line. Coaches get final say and run the program because that is their job. But in player led teams they feel valued, appreciated, part of a larger whole. Most people who have worked at multiple jobs know exactly what I am talking about. When players try to run the show and don't value  coach input that isn't a player led team, that is a circus which we surely are familiar with in our past.  
    • For our pics and trades tonight and tmrw.  Remember, Aho was a 2nd rounder and Slavin was a 4th rounder. 
    • Seems to be the consensus from the talking heads. I really wish we had double dipped at center in the 2nd round. Sion will never play in the league.
