The Bucs are scheduled to visit with Buffalo Bills cornerback Jabari Greer on Monday. Greer is one of several cornerbacks the Bucs have expressed interest in since free agency began on Friday morning. In other news, Raiders G Cooper Carlisle did not visit the Bucs.



 
The Buccaneers have expressed interest in a number of free agent cornerbacks, including Cincinnati's Jamar Fletcher, Buffalo's Jabari Greer and Baltimore's Corey Ivy.

No visits were scheduled until Sunday when the Bucs arranged a meeting with Greer in Tampa on Monday, PewterReport.com is reporting.

Greer, 27, has spent all five of his pro seasons in Buffalo. The former undrafted free agent out of Tennessee has seen significant playing time as both a nickel corner and starting cornerback.

In that time, the 5-foot-11, 180-pound Greer, who has also received interest from other teams, including Detroit, has recorded four interceptions and two touchdowns. Both scores came last season.

Tampa Bay remains interested in Fletcher and Ivy, and the Bucs are also interested in re-signing CB Phillip Buchanon, who became a free agent on Feb. 27.

New York Giants running back Derrick Ward is scheduled to visit the Bucs on Tuesday.

According to sources close to the situation, Raiders guard Cooper Carlisle did not visit Tampa Bay despite what previous reports suggested.

As long as we sign Buchanon I'm ok with whomever else the team looks at but COULD WE JUST SIGN JERMAINE PHILLIPS AS SOON AS POSSIBLE!!!! WTF!!!

I wonder what's up with Phillips? You's think we'd want to resign him, but there is something going on there. Maybe he is asking for too much money and wants to test the market. Hopefully he ends up back with us for 2-3 more years.

I'm not a huge Buchanon fan but I'd take him over this Greer guy. 5-10 180lbs? That's like my size. I don't think we need another little guy like Barber to get beat by TEs, big WRs, and run over by RBs. Only thing I can imagine is they want a situatuional blitzer. Beats me.

Sure wish we woulda got Cutler. That woulda been so huge and what a surprise! I'll keep my fingers crossed that we make some sort of move that brings in a young exciting QB. McCown is just depressing to me. Still love to see Alex Smith or Bryan Brohm come in and compete for the starting job.

clearly you must be right lordjim avoided a disaster
i will let go on my rants about canty boley and anton smith i think a solid olb solid de and solid dt is what we needed because the draft is hard to hit on these positions i think we are handicapped a little bit with only one pick on the first day i did not want to hurt carlisle's feelings but our guards need to be left alone
