Wake up people. He is 31. Unless they are under 25 we aren't going to pick them up. Why get an experienced veteran when we can get someone fresh out of school who is barely shaving for cheap. Who cares if they haven't done anything yet. Only those guys who are a bargain and cheap will be picked up.

But that sounds stubborn. So are we already the 09 Bucs?

Pretty much, this season is a wash. It's all about cutting cost and contracts.

JR is one of the head owners leading the be smart about your money and don't spend it in the uncapped year, shed payroll and set your business up for success later if the league comes back in 2011.

While this may be true, PSL owners and folks who purchase tickets won't see any impact in their wallet; just a marginal at-best product on the field. Fans get screwed in all this.

I don't see how we won't sign a few guys. This whole thing about people needing to be 25 is stupid, it's just a statement people have said over and over again until it becomes fact.

JR is making some tough buisness decisions but we still need 55 guys on the team.

Never said we wouldn't, but they really needed to get a legit second receiver and have failed at it unless they make a trade. I don't see them getting a legit number 2 for this season in the 2nd round of the draft. Jarret isn't that guy either imo.

The players they pick up in FA however will make less then Brayton was. They wanted him to take a paycut to stay with the team..Brayton wanted to be here, so I don't see him asking for that much money....

    • Why? AI already taking jobs, running up power bills, drinking all the water and just bad for the environment but hey lest try to shoehorn another useless way to use it.          
    • I'm going rogue in R1 but there's so much confusion around us. Last year, we were going Walker or Williams and caught folks off guard with TMac. The previous year we LOVED Legette and it was no surprise when his name was called. This year, I think we nail three areas that weren't totally addressed in FA.  R1 - Kayden McDonald Full disclosure, I want Thienemann here, but think he goes before 19. Some might see an "overdraft" but McDonald unlocks so many people on our D. Having a DT the caliber of McDonald let's Lloyd, Wallace and the newly drafted Hill flood the offensive backfield. Also opens up Moehrig and our EDGES to eat. Lastly, it also removes all the pressure on DB to be the primary facilitator in the trenches and A'Shawn will be missed. I don't care about Turk. McDonald is the only true DT worth of a R1 grade and Morgan seals up our trenches here w/ a kid from a blue blood school. R2 - Anthony Hill Jr *trade up*  I love JRod, but think a smart team takes him at the end of R1 (Seattle, NE w/ two d-minded coaches). Hill, Jr is a beast and lost in the shuffle with all the Styles/Allen/Rodriguez hype. He and Lloyd with DB and McDonald up front and flanked by Scourton/Phillips is nasty.  R3 - Hecht/Lew/Center du jour Let's stop the madness with ignoring this position in the draft. We need one and should start normalizing the capital invested in our OL with someone on a draft contract. He won't need to start day 1, but I think the right selection will push for starter reps. R4 - Bud Clark Not sure if he's here in R4 where we pick, but would fit the "type" of FS/roamer that we need opposite Moehrig and Ransom. Allows us to run 3-safety looks and really keep teams guessing with personnel packages. R5 - Kendrick Law The kind of WR we need. IDK if he's any different than Horn, Jr or Metchie but Law could be a dart throw that brings a deep threat to our WR corps I'm guessing one of the R5 picks is used to move up in R2 along with a '27 day 3 pick.   Post-draft, I sign Njoku to bring in a vet at TE. I'm also keeping my eyes open for pre-week 1 team cuts for a young CB that we could bring in to maybe plan for Mike Jack's departure next year. Flame away.... I know the McDonald pick will not make people happy.  
    • Classic example on what AI is not currently good for.  It will create a baseline of statistics (which are fine but must be used alongside tape and other evals) and partner that with every rumor mongering dips*&$t on the web.
