August 31st, 2012 at 11:02 pm
Bet they sign a QB.
August 31st, 2012 at 11:06 pm
We waited all this time for what? I at least thought the great GM was going to make a trade or something.
August 31st, 2012 at 11:08 pm
Oh my Brad! Relax, take a breath. Is this your first offseason. Moves will be made over the weekend.
August 31st, 2012 at 11:08 pm
Surprised to see Shipley and pain alto on the list. I thought they’d stick. Still need o-line and d-line depth.
August 31st, 2012 at 11:09 pm
QB Brett Ratliff didn’t get an injury settlement or hazard pay?
wow, and shipley is gone too.
August 31st, 2012 at 11:10 pm
Wouldn’t be surprised to see 4 or 5 more cuts over next day or two as we sift through sloppy seconds. Shipley was clearly at risk as late as he was playing in Wed nights gm. I’d be shocked if our O and D Lines remain intact as-is through weekend.
August 31st, 2012 at 11:13 pm
Wow, both Jordan Shipley & Tiquan Underwood are gone!
August 31st, 2012 at 11:14 pm
Surprised by the Underwood release… Outside of that not surprised, Bucs need to be real active the next few days to fill some Mich needed depth.
Congrats to local boy Leonard Johnson for making it, as of right now!
August 31st, 2012 at 11:15 pm
Pete, why sign a QB?
August 31st, 2012 at 11:16 pm
I don’t know how Myron Lewis keeps making the team, he must be doing something right that I don’t see. Hope Tiquan Underwood clears waivers
August 31st, 2012 at 11:17 pm
@hawaiian.. I know moves will be made dork arse.. I was saying with the amount of time it took to release the names I was hoping Dominik had maybe made a move or two. It’s been happening all day. Is this your first offseason?
August 31st, 2012 at 11:17 pm
No real surprises here though I was expecting Myron to be cut. Oh well, now on to see who we pick up.
August 31st, 2012 at 11:18 pm
The early reports of Grimm and Tandy totally false.
August 31st, 2012 at 11:18 pm
hey buc wild,
why do we need depth from michigan? i haven’t seen the wolverines do much lately. hopefully they can give bama a game though.
😉
August 31st, 2012 at 11:19 pm
grimm is a liability.
August 31st, 2012 at 11:19 pm
Nobody on the Bucs should go out and buy a house in Tampa yet.
August 31st, 2012 at 11:22 pm
@Brad,
You don’t understand how it works obviously (really, who says “dork arse”? What are you, 12?). Them releasing the roster has nothing to do with that, it’s just their choice. I’ve been around enough offseasons to know that. Do you see anyone else complaining about this? Didn’t think so.
August 31st, 2012 at 11:25 pm
myron lewis makes the team again. that right there shows how bad are secondary really is. youd be hard pressed to find a worst corner on anyones 53 man roster. they should of kept baker at least he made some plays and he couldnt be any worse than lewis.
underwood doesnt make it yet were still subjected to watching parker fumble away play after play that just isnt right. God forbid we had a guy like underwood who actually has speed and can get deep instead of a bunch of possession receivers
August 31st, 2012 at 11:27 pm
The Buc’s should have claimed Tiquan got hurt and put him on the I.R. That’s what Belicheat just did with Demps. That guys something else and he does it right in front of your face.
August 31st, 2012 at 11:28 pm
So we keep baker, biggers and Lewis?…f’n Lewis???!! Yet we let underwood go. I’m confused
August 31st, 2012 at 11:33 pm
Shipley gone noooooooooo!
August 31st, 2012 at 11:36 pm
Releasing Underwood was stupid as hell, made no sense at all. Benn is broken glass……he can’t be trusted to stay healthy! Needed someone to compliment Jackson and Mike Will.
August 31st, 2012 at 11:36 pm
McDonald, not baker. Who is this McDonald kid? Did he even get any snaps this preseason?
August 31st, 2012 at 11:42 pm
@DallasBuc McDonald and Lewis just made it today, doesn’t mean they’ll be here tomorrow.
August 31st, 2012 at 11:44 pm
Off subject but I did my fantacy draft 2day does anyone know or think mjd will be playing by atleast the 2 game of the year,I havent heard nothing on him in the last few days.
Tampaaaaaaaaaaaaa Baaaaaaaaaaay!!!!
8 more days till the panthers get beat down
August 31st, 2012 at 11:44 pm
Remember they had to keep some of the best of the worst until they see who they can get where. Lewis may not be safe yet.
August 31st, 2012 at 11:55 pm
So we down to two tight ends? Clark and Stocker? Or am I forgetting someone?
September 1st, 2012 at 12:09 am
Bleacher- any other pearls of insight you want to let me in on? I was evaluating the roster as of now, not tomorrow or next week.
September 1st, 2012 at 12:22 am
I think Lewis is a sitting duck, bet he gets cut as soon as they get an upgrade or biggers is healthy again… Can’t see any other reason why they would keep him unless they’re trying to trade him for a 7 th ?….
September 1st, 2012 at 12:25 am
After that snotty reply? You won’t get the time of day from me, @sswipe. I was just saying they made the more difficult cuts today and kept a couple of fringe players to make it easier and seem justifiable to cut later. We both agree that McDonald and Lewis are still not safe, and shouldn’t be. There will be better players to replace them with later. So, don’t piss in my cornflakes. I’m out.
September 1st, 2012 at 12:37 am
Then I read it wrong. Apologies.
September 1st, 2012 at 12:58 am
Now they can tweak what they have. I didn’t agree with all the cuts but then again I wasn’t there to watch them daily one on one. When they make these cuts there is a lot they have to factor besides their level of talent. Sometimes if a player is on the bubble (that’s any player outside the first 46) it can come down to money. They have to protect their cap numbers and also give them flexibility to bring in pricier free agents if they choose.
September 1st, 2012 at 2:10 am
I had a very bad feeling about this year, now it’s 100% confirmed.
We screwed until the Glazers admit they screwed up and fire these morons.
September 1st, 2012 at 2:12 am
We’re screwed
September 1st, 2012 at 2:32 am
Marcell Dominick better be upto something devious… Releasing Okoye and Underwood while dealing Price and Winslow for next to nothing don’t seem like intelligent moves.
September 1st, 2012 at 2:51 am
@Miguel,
I’m 100% sure you are an idiot.
September 1st, 2012 at 3:03 am
(agreed with hawaiian!)
i wish your little hole had no internet connection, miguel payasito. don’t you have to go to work with sneezy, bashful, grumpy, and doc?
September 1st, 2012 at 3:32 am
Why dont you bet your life savings on Carolina.
September 1st, 2012 at 3:55 am
I was just wondering and please correct me if I’m wrong but if I don’t like something I just move on and find something I do like.. So why dont some of these fans like Miguel and Thomas just not move on to a team they do like ? Instead of just moaning about the bucs every single day.. Oh better yet go buy our own team and make your own moves which you see perfect.. Problem solved and leave the rest of us to enjoy watching and supporting the bucs like true fans would through the good and he bad times..
No team has ever won a Super Bowl year after year after year after year as it just cannot be done. Because of players ageing, salary caps, injuries etc. dynasty’s are built, torn down and then rebuilt again. It ales time and a cycle that’s the beauty of the game, ou can’t predict what would happen.
September 1st, 2012 at 7:32 am
who needs Shipley or Underwood when we our a run first football team..More Blount and Martin!!! #HYFR
September 1st, 2012 at 7:40 am
Yes, Underwood is a good receiver but when you are trying to build depth you don’t have the luxury of keeping a 1 dimensional player who isn’t a starter.
September 1st, 2012 at 7:50 am
I can’t believe Underwood got cut. Crazy.
September 1st, 2012 at 8:17 am
I’m still confused but looking forward to seeing the “finished” roster coming opening day
September 1st, 2012 at 12:00 pm
Is LB Bruce Smith still on the team?
September 1st, 2012 at 1:34 pm
What sucks about Underwood’s situation is that he’s not practice squad eligible. Either he gets signed by another team or his talent is wasted sitting out all year. Hopefully, for Tiquan’s sake other teams have taken notice.
