Bucs about to make Glennon the top paid back up QB

He has absolutely no reason to sign anytime soon.  Let them float $12 million, if he can get that from another team why would he sign with Tampa to be traded?  It's not like he would want his new team to forfeit picks when they could have gotten him as a free agent.

I would be pretty surprised to see TB successfully sign him.  They should have traded him last year.

It's actually a smart move for both Glennon and the Bucs. If he goes the FA market, they get maybe a compensatory pick next year (I believe). Here, though, if they sign him for $12 million and then trade him to one of the QB hungry but draft pick leary teams out there, he creates immediate value for the Bucs at no real cost.

What does Glennon get out of it? Well, the galloping giraffe did fair to good in action under a bad coach before, but he's been locked onto the bench since. That's a big if in the market, especially after some miscues like Osweiller and others in similar situations pretty much crapped the bed when they got tabbed as starting or franchise QBs. This gives him a market value to go with his body of work, and $12 million a year looks like the Bucs would pay him close to starting money, so he must be starting talent. (Whether or not he is, still has to be seen.)

Glennon's a good kid and has talent and experience. I'd rather see him in Chicago and taking the reigns from Cutler than sitting on the bench behind a solid #1 QB. He's the kind of guy that Fox could use. And $12 million would be cheap compared to what they've thrown away on Cutler over the years.

      In addition to Evero there's one large change that likely should happen.

      It's honestly pretty interesting just seeing this pairing play out. Canales’ offenses (Seattle, Tampa) are run-first, under-center, play-action systems built around defined reads and intermediate/deep timing throws. That structure worked when he had QBs like Baker Mayfield or Russell Wilson in a system that created clear launch points and sightlines. His success has always been tied to a credible run game + play-action gravity. You can see that with the Panthers team building philosophy as well. Coker and TMac both are bigger receivers that won't get the best YAC production but thrive as possession receivers in contested scenarios. They're not the best in space and creating additional yardage in such, and would likely fair better systematically with a stronger armed QB who can create better opportunities on those boundary 1v1 matchups with stronger throws. Bryce, on the other hand, is a spread-native QB. His strengths are rhythm, spacing, quick processing, and off-script creation. Asking him to live in condensed formations with long-developing play-action concepts just hasn't been his forte. And well, his boundary throws are limited in velocity which takes a big chunk of the playbook off. And I mean a QB like Bryce can still work, it's just Dave's offensive philosophy and foundation is very much at odds with Young's physical limits and his own experience. So it's certainly still a learning experience for Dave to figure out how he can mesh his offensive philosophy with Young's strengths. He's very inexperienced with maximizing Bryce's strengths with his system. Would love to see us bring in an OC with spread experience and adaptability to implement a cohesive system with Dave to allow Bryce to thrive, as it's obvious we're sticking with him for a bit longer.

      CBS Sports brief discussion about questionable Canales decision making

      Only thing I really agreed with is questioning why we didn’t take any timeouts on their last drive.  I know hindsight is 20/20, but I think it would’ve saved clock bc they were desperate to score as soon as the opportunity presented itself, but I also think it could’ve helped the defense regroup and maybe give us a better chance to stop them.
