Just thought I would pass this on

Bradley is back... I like that

[Buc Wylde]

Personally, I'm hoping to see Bryant added to the 53 man again. Maybe Kiffin lit the needed fire under him to get him going in the right direction.

[Uncle Stan]

The re-signing of Bradley doesn't say much for Bryant.

[alldaway]

Actually the Bryant/Bradely tandem did well last year in two games while Booger was out.   Bryant can not be an everydown player but in rotation with Bradely he will do just fine.

Do the Bucs need Bryant?  It depends on how they feel about Jenkins to be honest.

[DanTurksGhost]

Bryant has so much potential, IMO. I know that potential doesn't = production, but I'd really like to see them make something out of this kid.

That is what I was thinking.  I'd really like to see our draft pick in action.  Maybe they are looking for someone with more size?  Or maybe Jenkins is not as far along as they had hoped?

Jenkins is a project.  With an off season of weight training adding 10-15 lbs Jenkins will turn out to be a good rotational player.  Wyms added 10-15 lbs and has shown improvement every since he did that.

Regarding Bryant, it appears that they think he has the talent but the light bulb just hasn't gone on yet and they keep hoping that it will.  Not getting activated to the roster from the PS may be what prods him to start putting forth the effort needed to be an NFL player.

As far as Jenkins, he looks a lot like Wymms did when he was a rookie and they appear to be bringing him a long much the same way they did Wymms.

Right.  It's not outrageous to give Bryant another year.  If we relaly like him, we should be prepared to put some time in on a guy like him.  Late round pick with a high upside.

[finnbluebucs]

I like seeing Bradley and Bryant back in the Active Roster. Our playoff chances are so minuscule that this year could be really valuable in evaluating some of these fringe players.

[Boid Fink]

Bryant is probably the strongest Buc.  But maybe he lacks that burst required to get an advantage, by putting a guard or center on his heels, to take advantage of all that power he has got.

He didn't look all that great in preseason.  But he didn't look like he was getting winded either.  So one problem down, 1 more to go.

I just think he needs to get nastier.

[Itchalot]

What we need now is a bunch of futile and useless moves and we're just the team to do it!

You wanted the Bucs to keep Booger?
