His pass coverage was his strength and he sucked at it this year. Hard to see him getting a starting gig. But he can be in football as long as he wants.  Assumming his softness doesnt translate to special teams. Plenty of teams would love a veteran back up who could be a secial teams ace. Special teams captain is written all over him.
  Eagles possibly. They have young backers and will probably draft Kuelchy if available.

Ya, if the Eagles draft Kuechly, they will need a middle linebacker a lot worse than the Bucs need one...

Not

I like the idea of moving Foster to Sam, signing Dan Conner to play Mike, and drafting Lavonte David to play Will.

Conor really isn't much better than the linebackers they already have.

Dan Connor is not better then Mason Foster, Geno Hayes, Quincy Black, Dekoda Watson, Adam Hayward and the other scrubs?

Please. Dan Connor would instantly be better then any of the LBers we have.

Or have had since #55 was cut.

Actually the problem isnt that Freeman stinks. He is average. He puts up good numbers just often enough to make you think he is better than he is. Bad and great are convincing. But mediocre makes you live with the delusion for too many years. He is just good enough to waste our time and not good enough to get us where we want to go.

Considering Tennessee was the only team that offered him anything and it wasn't much, I wouldn't be surprised to see him as a backup. I wish him the best, as I'm not gonna dislike the guy just because Java uses him as a trolling tool and he certainly didn't show any attitude on the way out...but unfortunately I just don't really see him getting another starting spot anywhere. MAYBE Philly.

Foster should have a big '12....Watson, im afraid, is a don't hold your breath "potential" guy...wont be on the team in 2 years...

So java you still believe Ruud will start next year? Every knows Ruud is softer than a "javaray". The titans got Ruud because he was and upgrade over Tulloch in the passing game. But in fact, statistically and on film he was worse. There was a 5 week stretch were he gave up a passing TD every week. He barely played 5 games to begin with.
 I tell you what bet me ruud starts 16 games next season. Hell. 12 games. He wont.

Re: Will any team want Barrett Ruud?

Might as well ask them if they want kidney stones.

Or being face deep in a "bloody surprise"..0 out of 10 on the fun scale.
