Booted Ryan Delaire Haunts Bucs

October 4th, 2015 

A defensive end who spent all offseason and training camp with the Bucs sacked Jameis Winston twice today.

Ryan Delaire, a defensive end who spent all offseason and training camp with the Bucs, sacked Jameis Winston twice today.

Over and over again in Buccaneers training camp, No. 75 would flash against second- and third-teamers.

Today, he flashed over and over against the Bucs.

Joe’s talking about undrafted rookie defensive end Ryan Delaire. Joe begged Lovie Smithto turn this kid loose in meaningful preseason action to see what would happen.

Lovie preferred to get a deeper look at Larry English, and Delaire was cut before opening day. This week, the Panthers snatched him off the Redskins’ practice squad and turned him loose against the Bucs in his NFL debut.

Delaire had two sacks, five solo tackles and displayed the nasty streak you could see in him on the fields of One Buc Palace.

For those sacks, he torched Bucs right tackle Gosder Cherilus inside, and later moved over and shook Donovan Smith.

As aching for defensive end talent as the Bucs have been, it’s painful to think they let Delaire go for no good reason.

Josh Norman has been our best player on defense, so...

Yeah and he is a great player as well, and I hate that he keeps getting penalties too.  I would love to keep him but I feel he'll be too expensive past a potential franchise tag.  I was just pointing out that the hit that Delaire made was intentional and could have caused a concussion or worse and I don't want to have a player on our team like Burfict from the Bengals and have a stigma about our team.

      It is time to Consider the Likelihood of WR at #19

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      Nobody is saying we don't need it, just that we have bigger needs elsewhere, and that type of WR is actually something that is often found in the mid rounds, you just have to scout and evaluate properly. Here's another way of looking at why WR in the 1st shouldn't even be considered an option. Looking only at players currently on the team, what position group would you feel strongest about 4 years from now? I'm not sure there is a better answer there than WR, as you have to think T-Mac is our best player on the team in 4 years (Brown is the only current player I think there is even an argument to be made over T-Mac there), with Coker not far behind. Our OL is too old to be considered, my opinions on Bryce is well known, Hubbard will be done by then and the rest of the RB is an unknown, Off-ball LB is maybe our biggest need, we only have 1 legit safety, it's certainly not TE, and our 2nd best CB right now will be 33 by then.   Brown should still be a beast as he'll only be 31, but nobody else on the DL projects to be that good in 4 years.  Edge rusher with Phillips, Scourton, and Princely is probably the only other possible answer than WR. So yes, that fast/shifty type of WR is 100% a need of ours, but we have so many other bigger needs both in the immediate and future, that to me, taking a WR in the 1st for the 3rd year in a row and having hit on another WR in the same time frame, just makes zero sense both currently and looking into the future.

      Draft intel from ESPN’s Jordan Reid

      By TD alt · Posted

      Laughing at Slayton (Mooney or Calvin Austin III), but telling me that Coker is the next best thing since sliced bread...You laughing at Theo Johnson in reference to our guys too? LOL No one in their right mind thinks Nabers is anything but a stud (definitely top 10 if not 5 potential). You do realize that Thomas was in a new system with a furst-time coach last year (with a questionable QB to boot)? And yet still, it's possible that he eclipses even T-mac (not saying that he will). They didn't even mention Travis Hunter. In any event, we're not in the top half. Draft another legit receiver, and we will be.

      Panthers are at an extremely pivotal point

      Absolutely, very fair assessment of the team.
