Bucs have "aggressive plan" to trade for AP

Almost 30 or not Peterson is a pure stud.. I don't understand why people think that you somehow become a bum once you hit 30

 

It's not that once you hit 30 you become a dud or anything.  The NFL is tough on RBs, and AP has a lot of mileage on his wheels.  Will he continue to be able to hold up for a few more years?  Compare 25 year old Deangelo (his 1500 yard season) to the last couple of years.  Injuries add up.

 

AP has been an absolute beast his career, but as any RB approaches 30, their good years dry up very quickly.

Ya'll know damn well if we could get AP for a 4th, A FREAKIN' 4th round pick you'd be all over it. He's still the best back in the league and spelling time with an oft injured J-Stew is a great back-field. Only thing I wouldn't like is the contract.

I'm remembering another time when a certain team had an 'aggressive plan' to trade for a star runningback.

Herschel something :unsure:

 

Just talked to my family Up Nort. Mixed feelings about this up der you betcha.

 

Want him back, but also want karmic justice for Herschel Walker by reversing that deal on someone else.

No doubt he is still a great running back.  If the Bucs were trying to win now, it might make some sense. But the Bucs were the worst team in the league.  They need to be looking a couple of years down the road, instead of who will help us now.  And it a couple of years, Peterson will be nearing retirement.

1. We'll see about that lol I beg to differ

2. Peterson never ran for 80 against us on poo cheese teams with no weapons but he. In Tampa we'd have to worry about vincent and evans or we could easily get burned in the passing game if we focus all attention on ap. Those play actions in Tampa could be very lethal with that personnel

it would change nothing for us. Our game plan is, has been, and always will be stop the run. We have stopped him before. I need to see this Bucs team before I get scared of them.

      They had best show out in Week 1 there are zero,I mean zero,  excuses for that offense  defense, haven’t play together yet and they still have Mr Soft and Predictable as DC  I expect break downs at times  …but that offense returns all starters except Tremble and both Mayes and Brady are veterans and can play LG and know the system not up for any participation awards this season they can save that practice energy for Jacksonville.     I’m sick of the, winning,  or looking competitive, when it doesn’t matter.

      There are some tough decisions that I'm eager to see the results of... Does Blackshear sneak on to the roster as RB4? Does the team go with 4 TEs or just 3 again? And has Mitchell Evans done enough to defend his roster spot from James Mitchell? Who is WR6 and is there a WR7? TMac, XL, Coker, and AT seem to be locks imo and I'm assuming Renfrow also makes it due to all of the camp praise. Who makes it between Brycen Tremayne, Jimmy Horn Jr, and David Moore? If the team goes with 7 WRs, which one of those three doesn't make it? Jacolby George and Emani Bailey both have not gotten a lot of game time. Could the Panthers be trying to hide them so that they can be stashed on the PS? Do they go with 10 OL instead of 9? Who makes it out of Walton, Carter, and Kingston? DL locks are DB, BB3, ARob, and Turk. That leaves Jaden Crumedy, Cam Jackson, Sam Roberts, Shy Tuttle, and LaBryan Ray all competing for the final 1 - 3 spots. Does DJ Johnson get IR'd and Thomas Incoom make the roster as EDGE5? What in the fuuuuuuuuuuuuck is going to happen at LB? Only locks seem to be Wallace, Rozeboom, and Cherelus (Wallace has mentioned in media how Cherelus has been big bro for him on the team). Rhattigan had some good moments against Houston, Martin-Scott is an SC guy, Krys Barnes has popped on defense and on special teams, and Windmon got time starting for the team last season. Are two of those guys going to make it or are the Panthers poaching from another team's cuts? CB5... who is it? Do they go with the 4 expected safeties or bring in a 5th? Has Ransom done enough to take the start from Nick Scott?
