Bucs could be a suitor for Alex Brown

Who what?

I'd rather re-visit this after the draft. If we end up with a good player in the 2nd round I'm going to want him to get some snaps, as well as other young players like Crowder and Moore. We already have one 30+ year old DE starting, there's really no upside for a 3-13 team to start two guys like that.

DE's will rotate and as of now we don't have a starter at that LDE spot unless Wilkerson comes back and he's not as good a player as Brown.

I'm fine with Crowder starting at LDE. LDE is a throwaway position, anyways, and the least of the Bucs' problems on the defensive line.

the key line in this thread and why its not an issue worth talking, several teams.....
you put a fork in the bucs interest.

It is a Robin spot for sure but we don't know anyone on this roster even reaches that state.

But of course, it would create trepidation amongst us peons who have "bought into" the youth movememnt. I haven't...but just saying...

Count me as one of those that doesn't feel the entire team must be made up of 20sumthings.

Bring him in, but still draft a DE or two.

the only way he is coming to tampa is if their is no competition for him...

I thought Crowder was decent when he was in there. He hasn't even turned 25 yet. They also spent a 4th on Kyle Moore for some reason. Unless he's in the Alan Zemaitis zone, you have to give him some snaps. The only reason I want Brown is if we don't like any of the RDE's available in the 2nd so we work out a White/Brown platoon where White can focus on passing downs and Brown can be the more base end. I don't want Brown as LDE.

Youneed veterans.

The NFL is a mans game.  Obviously.  But it takes themental toughness of a man to grind through weeks of punishment.

I wouldnot be opposed to sprinkling the lineup with cagey vets, but I have never considered Brown to be a leader, and I follow the Bears because a very good friend of mine is a huge Bears fan.  Urlacher was a mouthpiece.  Briggs was a doer, leader by example much like Brown is.

Brown is a coaches dream, he does what he is told, he is a grunt, who has some ribbons pinned on his chest.

Not opposed to the guy, but not so sure about the leadership aspect.

PFT has him visiting the Saints tmrw.
