Hey guys. I don't know if you guys are big fans of Twitter or not. I just recently started trying it out but I did manage to find a few Buccaneers on there. The only two current players I was able to find were Earnest Graham and EJ Biggers. Warren Sapp and Warrick Dunn both also have accounts though. There are quite a few players from around the NFL on there. I was able to find Peyton Manning , T.O.,...

I’m just a fan. Not a fanatic, but a fan. Raised in a family of football lovers, I have grown up with the game as many of us have. I have seen the rise of legends, and their downfalls. Names come and go. Offensive and defensive schemes change. Even the rules change, but the song remains the same. It’s Football, straight and true. It’s eleven versus eleven. When I became a Buccaneers...

I was able to secure information on dropped passes in 2008 for receivers, which I thought might be worth looking into. There can't be any trend analysis or predctive values here as we have one seasons worth of data, but thought it might at least provide some factual basis with which to look at players in relation to the 2008 season. In the previous piece I discussed targets (balls intended for a WR)...

The Post-Dispatch reports that it looks as if the Rams are not all that interested in any of the big name free agent RB’s still out there: A number of veteran backs are available, including former Pro Bowlers Warrick Dunn, Ahman Green, Edgerrin James, Rudi Johnson and Deuce McAllister. But nobody meets the Rams’ “ascending player” [...]

Here’s a recent OTA practice feature on Derrick Ward from the good guys at Ch. 10, home of the lovely Erica Pitzi.

Now we all know Edge left and wasn't happy with his situation here. Now this leaves us with Hightower who had 1 100 yard rushing game "against the Rams " and averaged just under 3 yards per carry and a rookie that everyone is falling in love with Chris "Beanie" Wells. Besides these 2 we have Larod Stephens-Howling, Jason Wright , and Chris Vincent . If it wasn't for Edge in the...

Motorists passing by Raymond James Stadium this morning might have glimpsed the installation of a new giant banner featuring No. 51, Tampa Bay Buccaneers linebacker Barrett Ruud.

Huge banners featuring photographs of players have been hanging...

If there is one thing that the tough economic times have taught the NFL it’s that it is a young man’s league, especially at the skill positions. Veterans such as Shaun Alexander, Warrick Dunn, Ahman Green and Marty Booker are still free agents. And these are just a few of the former stars that are [...]
