Dont know whos a FA dt. Anyone want to help? Im sure names will appear that are worthwhile as cap casualties

Leonard will be gone by the second round, no doubt.

Well I gave it a try. The BUcs should be picking around 70th in the 3rd round, thats not too much of a reach to say he drops there. I guess you could flip flop Leonard with Young. I think we oculd get Young in the 3rd round

Forget about Shaub and Bennett and then it makes sense. Forget about trading Rice for Shaub too.

Leonard will probably be gone by mid 2nd round.  The Falcons will max tender Schaub, so it will take a 1st and a 3rd round pick to gte him.

Matt as QB?  Yeah, yet another first year guy, when people are ready to lynch Grads for not playing like Peyton Manning.

I say we put all of our cap money into cloning research. Then we can clone Tebow to play every position. We'll be unstoppable.

Hate to say it but Schaub is definitely more talented than Grads and whoever he goes to next year he wont play like a 1st year QB

I updated my offseason wishlist. How about Rufus Alexander in round 2 and Jamarcus Russell and Chris Simms (for a very reasonable 1 year deal) battle it out in training camp. Still dont know who we could get at DT in FA, but Im sure one will surface

Ronde = RJ of the Bucs 

I could see that, Im not afraid to tell you the BUcs as a whole (offense, defense, ST, OL and DL), Simeon Rice, Greg SPires, Sean MAhan, Jermaine Phillips and John Wade are horrible. And Quarles, Brooks, WIll Allen, Ronde BArber, Bryant and ANthony Becht have played BAD also (BAD would be an upgrade for Becht, I thought he was horrible last year). and I pick Carolina to cover the 10 point spread this week. Simeon Rice is horrible

But I am a Gruden/Allen apologist and I have always said this team is far from a sinking ship. SO yea I pretty much am a homer

Hate to say it but Schaub is definitely more talented than Grads whoever he goes to next year he wont play like a 1st year QB

Schaub's stats for his NFL starts thus far are a below average 49% completion and 5 TDs and 4 INTs.  The jury is still out on both of them.

whoever he goes to next year he wont play like a 1st year QB

Well thanks for stating the obvious.......he will be a forth year pro.   

Don't get me wrong I like Schaub, but he will have a lot of growing pains when he is the full time starter on anther team.

The guy is a good player and has improved every year since he entered the league.  He is a winner.  You can call him whatever you want, but the guy is good.  He is big and he is not afraid to stand in the pocket and take the hit.  He is a natural born leader and I think he would be a great QB here.
