If you think I should add someone else to the list up top, let me know. No, Java, I'm not adding Ruud.

News: (i.e. any FA moves that could impact our choices/markets)

@CommishOnline Not going into detail, but expect #Bucs to go after OG Carl Nicks and CB Cortland Finnegan 1st then sign a WR. Haven't got name on WR yet.

@HolderStephen Keep eye on Mike Tolbert/Bucs. Hearing some things on that front and could be good fit. Good in short-yardage/pass pro, where Blount isn't

Colston, Saints working hard to finish a deal

Pete Prisco: Brandon Carr to Bucs? Vincent Jackson to Bucs?

Carl Nicks ‏ @bigbrickhouse77 Y'all know I keep it real on this. My agent told me the saints made me an offer and it is respectable..

Still need time to think and talk with my family

Bucs FA Signings:

Vincent Jackson, WR

Eric Wright, DB

Dan Orlovsky, QB

Carl Nicks, OG

Vincent Jackson. One can dream right??  I wouldn't be surprised if this happened, I think it sends us a message that the Glazers are serious about winning. That's all a fan can ask for..
