      Who would like if we signed JPP instead of resigning Will? Imagine if we got both…

      Huh? JPP is a very good if not great pass rusher but actually great vs the run as well. Gholston is elite at the run but pretty much average at best when it comes to edge rush.

      On the 3rd down who do you want off the edge, Gholston or JPP? JPP by a mile, so how are they the same?

      This past off season he only got a 1 year deal so he’s gonna hit free agency if Giants dont give him a long term deal.

      I’d like both but I read an article that said JPP has told people he has “proven” himself again. He will not take a 1 year deal (which is fine) and he’s looking for the kind of money the Giants gave him BEFORE his accident. I didn’t take the time to look up the numbers but I remember that deal was for a lot of money.

      We’ll see what happens. It sounds like JPP is looking for a long term deal to play out, make tons of money, then retire.

      The only way I could see the team being able to afford him is a 3 or 4 year deal thats heavily front loaded… we have too many core pieces that are gonna need BIG pay days here soon. Cant afford to loose them to rent a guy for a few years.

      He is a South Florida guy so that may entice him some to come to Tampa…

      And Gholston and JPP are not at all the same type of player. If they were, our pass rush would have looked much better last year. Not saying Gholston isn’t good (I hope Licht gives him a long term deal) but even with 7.5 fingers JPP is a near elite pass rusher while still bringing solid run support.

      JPP is a one man wrecking crew. Adding him to a line with McCoy, Spence, and Ayers would be a nightmare for opposing QBs.

      I like Gholston a lot, but I would choose JPP over him.

      I’d rather have a guy with all of his fingers and a desire to play for the Buccaneers. Throwing huge CAP dollars at JPP is not a good idea IMO. Money could be better spent starting with our own. That might include getting Mike Evans done early? We’ll see.

      Did you watch JPP this year? He’s better with the 3 fingers on one hand than most DEs are with all five.

      I’d still love to hear how Gholston and JPP are even vaguely-sorta-kinda the same player, but JPP is going to get cuckoo-for-coco-puffs money.  If the choice is between Gholston at 5mil/year versus JPP at 15mil/per year, I’ll take the former.

      JPP played in 12 games. He was held without a sack in 8 of those games. 7 total sacks on the year including 3 vs Cleveland and 2.5 vs Chicago.

      Take away the two games against sub-par competition and he is not looking too great.

      Give me a young player in his prime that is a top notch LDE. Give me Gholston all day every day.

      JPP has never been the same since the incident when he lost his finger. No thanks to JPP

      Paul missed 4 games yet still ended up 14th in the league in defensive hurries, Khalil Mack was #13… Gholston didn’t even crack the top 200.

      JPP was also 2nd in the league in batted passes with eight and lead all defensive linemen in snaps at the time of his injury.

       

      Gholston is a good powerful DE but its pretty clear that JPP is the superior player.

      JPP is someone I would throw decent amounts of money at because he would be the missing outside piece with McCoy in the middle and the Spence rotation on the other side.

      Should have just fucking signed him last year as a FA like myself and others suggested…Instead Licht sat on his fucking hands a year and watched the inevitable 22 sack season roll by only to toss a freebie high 3rd to the Giants this year.

      Lesson learned from the Gholston deal. If they play DE and never shown anything in terms of rushing the passer, then you absolutely let them walk.

      gotta open your mind. Draft picks are used to obtain players. players who have zero NFL experience and over half of which end up busts or lower than average starters. Trading a pick gets you an already established good player. The only down side to this is the shelf life but the trade off is so much better than retaining a 3rd round pick on an unexperienced prospect. Not to mention we dont even know what position they could have drafted in the third, Licht has thrown away a 2nd on a kicker, a 1st on a nickel corner, and a 3rd on a RB who cant run in-between the tackles.

      Watch Gholston absolutely thrive under Buckner and take his game to the next level under his tutelage.

      We could all be proven to be dead ass wrong when it’s all said and done, but I get the feeling that Buckner will be the difference maker with this team next year. He’s got a lot of talent and potential to work with now and I cannot wait to see what he does with it.
