Bucs Re-Sign Veteran Cb Ronde Barber

Yep surprises happen.

Including passing him up even if he does fall to us.

Or maybe another Hurney trade, you know the ones at the last fuging minute.

All I hope is for Hurney to get solid players from more than just the first round.

Seems like it could happen, but I highly doubt it. browns, rams, and jags could very likely take him.

Right now I'd be happy if we took Kirkpatrick. Long, lengthy corner who can tackle. That's what we need, defenders who can tackle. And some people think he may become a safety in the nfl, heck we need help at safety also. If he doesn't pan out at cb, move him to fs. We still need to see what hogan could do for us.

I can not believe that Morris may fall to us but it appears to be a reasonable chance as the draft gets closer.

Really the only team that stands in our way between Claiborn and us are the Vikes or someone trading up.

If Bucs really signed Ronde Barber because they're getting Trent Richardson, then Claiborne is as good as ours.

You really think the Vikings would pass up Matt Kalil to get Claiborne? I don't.

They have a worse secondary than the Panthers. Vikes higher then the Browns then Bucs.

This has Robert Blanton written all over it as a potential later-round draft selection.

    • Like many of the old heads, I’ve been here for a long time.  I got a lot of respect for everyone on this board for your dedication to this team.  We’ve all been through it during the tougher years. At this point in life, I’m not one to judge anyone’s level of dedication, or their reasons why anymore.  Time, and a lot of bad football, will do that.  For me, it’s simple.  We share a common bond.  For that, I love and appreciate all of you crazy SOB’s. For me, last season was at a minimum, entertaining.  BY lead a young team to multiple come from behind 4th qtr wins.  That showed me heart, and that he has the clutch gene.  That’s the wildcard intangible.  For me, that was fun to watch even  if it was mindbogglingly frustrating at times.  Over the past two seasons, we have progressively built a better team around him.  On paper, the defense should be better this season.  That’ll help.  Let’s see what he can do as the other guys continue to develop too.  Besides, his contract is cheap for a few more years, and we just made some smart cap decisions during the draft. Let’s see how it shakes out. 
    • Hiring Shula & his Cam save us playbook.
    • I would very much liked to have seen Jake Delhomme's career if Tommy Jone no hurt Jake.  I just know that roster and the leadership were destined to hit paydirt but Jake was never the same after the elbow injury, and unfortunately he was the sole reason they didn't make it back to the big one.  I think that 08 team was the best in the league, and Jake masked his inability well all season til the Arizona game put it all on display.  I'll go back to the season prior even and say the 07 team was primed to be a competitor.  Jake was off to a fantastic start that year (for a Panthers QB).  They may have been a championship caliber club for a few seasons after 08 too.
