Bucs No. 1 cornerback Jamel Dean.

The NFL trends positive. It doesn’t officially track stats like drops and should-have-been interceptions, among others.

So it was noteworthy to Joe when NFL.com devoted a page to Bucs cornerback Jamel Dean’s crucial drop against the Lions in the playoffs last season. [read more]

As owner of the Falcons since 2002, Arthur Morris Blank has adopted a cool, laid-back approach. It’s the same philosophy he took as co-founder of Home Depot in 1978, preferring a low-key, carefully designed growth plan.

Among cutdown victims.

To meet Tuesday’s mandatory roster limit of 53 players, the Bucs started shedding players today.

Of course, no huge names were sent packing but a few guys who showed some things in training camp and worthless preseason games are now on the market.

Receiver Tanner Knue, running back Ramon Jefferson, tight end David Wells, corner Andrew Hayes and linebacker Kalen DeLoach are among the first Bucs casualties, as documented by Greg Auman of FOX Sports. Per Auman, the Bucs have waived 12 players.

The deadline to cut the roster to 53 is 4 p.m. Tuesday.

Cryptic message.

Yeah, call Joe weird. But unless something happens, it hasn’t. Don’t tell Joe you have never been surprised by a transaction a team has made. Or hasn’t made. [read more]
