Well that's where a good GM comes in. This will separate the great front offices from the bad ones. How they spend the money will make such a huge difference now.
Dominik has been great with the draft, but he hasn't shown much in FA yet. I know the Bucs pretty much sat out FA last year, but the year before he offered Haynesworth more than what the Redskins did, gave Derrick Ward a big deal, signed Mike Nugent to a decent deal and signed Byron Leftwich. Really, I don't like FA in the NFL. More often than not, free agents don't live up to the deal they get and teams are usually hosed in FA deals. I love what the Bucs have been doing with the youth approach.
And it's not like you're going to spend a 'massive' amount of money just to be at the floor..
Well the salary floor is supposed to be around 111 million. The Bucs payroll is somewhere between 58-60 million. So just to hit the floor, the Bucs will have to spend 50+ million in just a matter of weeks. I'm hoping the league won't inforce the salary floor this year, because not only the Bucs, but several teams are way below it and is silly to expect so many teams to add so much payroll in a short period of time.
I'd like the Bucs to re-sign a couple key guys, add a corner and maybe look into the O-line. But the idea of HAVING to be really active in FA isn't a good one to me.

Looks like the Bucs will need to make some moves in FA now with the salary floor. Wouldn't mind seeing us overpay for Nnamdi.
That isn't a good thing. I don't want the Bucs to be forced to spend massive amounts of money just to get to the floor.

By the horrible logic of this article, almost every defense in the league is almost elite with a piece or two. The Falcons were in the middle of the road in almost every defensive category last year, but they are a Ray Edwards away from being elite? Since when was Ray Edwards an amazing DE? I think the fact Atlanta's offense consistently puts up long 8 minute scoring drives helps cover the weaknesses of their defense anyways.

Well, if we let him leave we need to sign someone else. We need someone who can block and catch the ball. Bradford is almost a Blount clone, I didn't have much faith in Huggins before he tore his ACL let alone after and I have zero faith in Kregg Lumpkin at all despite people at OBP praising him.

I'd have to go with the Saints. I live an hour and a half from Tampa and just a year or so ago there were probably more people claiming to be Saints fans than Buc fans. There were hardly many Saints fans in Louisiana not that long ago, and I'm supposed to believe that Florida is full of hardcore Saints fans? One of my neighbors used to be a Falcons fan and wore a Michael Vick jersey a lot, but after he got arrested he claimed to be a Saints fans because of Reggie Bush. He tells me now he'll be a Saints fan even if Bush leaves, but I still think he's a bandwagoner.

I think he has a legit shot at starting if we don't re-sign Ruud, and we probably won't. He'll have to beat out Mason Foster though.

Unless there is serious improvements in gameplay, I see no reason to buy this game unless the NBA settles its' lockout soon (chances of that are next to nothing). I think NBA 2k11 is a great game, and with the lockout 2k12 will just feature the same rosters so I see no reason to buy.

Don't laugh at DA. He takes this shit seriously. This isn't funny to him.

As long as he can play solid ball on the field, he can stay as long as he wants.

I'm glad they didn't let those turds inside. EFF THE MEDIA.
-
Eh, he better be Emmitt Smith if he is going to be considered a steal when the Saints gave up two firsts for him.
-
Almost every rookie is saying stuff like this. I've read about how Da'Quan Bowers and Mason Foster are going to make everyone pay for passing on him. Bowers I can understand, but most of this stuff is just fluff to get fans fired up.
-
Eh, I don't think I want him in Tampa. We've seemingly invested the DE spot into Clayborn and Bowers. While DE is still something that should be adressed in FA due to lack of depth and uncertainty with Bowers' knee, a high priced DE who can potentially keep young guys from developing is not the answer.
-
Awesome, Bart can show Cam how to throw INTs and send pictures of his wang to women.
-
The Bucs reportedly passed on Cam Jordan at the No. 20 pick in the draft because they questioned his pass-rush ability.The Bucs "had doubts" that Jordan could ever be more than a "five- or six-sack per season guy," and were more confident in Adrian Clayborn's long-term upside as a pass rusher. In a 4-3 defense like the Bucs, Jordan projected as only a strong-side defensive end, possibly with the ability to move inside on nickel downs. He never topped 5.5 sacks in a college season.
From rotoworld.

He had a decent shot to make the roster with Bowers' knee concerns and the Bucs lacking DE depth. He's better than Kyle Moore.
-
Chad Henne is awful. The Dolphins D is good enough to make noise but this dude stinks something fierce.
-
I'm not a big fan of Carpenter, though I like Moffitt. I won't hate Seattle's draft because they took guys higher than Mel Kiper and Todd McShay said they should go. But they didn't have a great draft or anything, just solid.
-
I hope they don't go nuts and spend a lot trying to prove they are willing to spend. I'm happy with what we are getting in the draft, no need for big money FAs left and right. Just some guys who can come in at a reasonable price and help us win.

I don't want Ruud back. He's not good enough for the paycheck he's going to get and I don't want to committ four or five years to him as our middle linebacker when he's soft and gets run over all the time.
Bolts, Bears, Lions like Quincy Black?

I think the Bucs keep him, but if one of these teams want to overpay, go on ahead. We have Foster waiting in the wings.
