According to Roy Cummings a deal for offensive lineman Jeremy Zuttah (third round) is expected to be completed by the middle of next week, and talks aimed at signing quarterback Josh Johnson (sixth round) are believed to be moving along well.

    Our Buccaneer Ace Reporter Roy still thinks Josh was a 6th round pick... Me thinks we picked him in the 5th.

yea and doesnt training camp start soon, I would think we'd see these picks signed by next week with maybe Talib being the last one.  Come to think of it, I havent see many 1st round picks of many teams sign yet

A week from tomorrow the 25th, training camp starts. In that week, I think that Allen gets them all signed.

Josh Johnson was drafted in the 5th round.

He's played alot of different positions, is a smart and athletic player. Could have easily been taken in the early 2nd and nobody would have questioned it. Hes going to start out at center in TC, but I personally think the team would be happy if he developed into a LT.

I think the Bucs are better off developing Penn at LT than anybody else. I think Zuttah would be better if we develop him at C.

Well.. what we have here is a guy who isn't good enough to actually start at any position in the NFL, but isn't so bad that he can't be a good 3rd stringer all the way across.

Not as a pro obviously, PR folks like him - but there is the caveat re linemen - can't tell anything for certain until the pads are on....  Until then folks are just hopin' he is a good pick.

Buenning - healthy finally - appears on the rise - as a back up center/guard... and that is good for the buccs - bc that guy has proven he can play in the league very effectively at guard.. we will see about center.
