The Bucs believe they are on the right track and have been for years. (more…)

The Joe typing here sees the value in Bucs pending free agent tight Cade Otton. It starts with consistent play, including 59 catches in each of the past two seasons.

Only four other NFL tight ends can claim that level of production. (more…)

Much was made last week when internal grades of teams by players were leaked to the public after a court ruling said the NFL players’ union was no longer permitted to publish those annual grades.

Little clarity was provided. (more…)

Even though this story has been out there for three years, it still floored Rich Eisen. (more…)

Todd Bowles reacts.

There is no way Joe can sugarcoat the play of Bucs linebacker SirVocea Dennis. (more…)

Drafting Georgia LB C.J. Allen would make Joe smile.

Joe cannot put a finger on it, but there are some traits for linebackers that just jump off a screen. (more…)

The JoeBucsFan Show has an 8 a.m. kickoff today on WDAE radio, 95.3 FM and AM 620. Listen online to Tampa Bay’s all-sports powerhouse, now on 95.7 FM, or via the iHeart Radio app, or below.

Joe’s been back on the WDAE airwaves every weekend since last February. Varying times.

Targeted for Bucs?

A linebacker who will be 32 is considered long in the tooth.

Except when a team has a roster spot reserved for a guy who will be 36. (more…)

At least pass defense is consistent.

No one who is considered a defensive guru allows this to happen. (more…)

Buccaneers Ring of Honor general manager Jason Licht is the fifth-longest tenured general manager in the National Football League. (more…)

Jonah Coleman could help Bucs offense fly.

The Bucs really haven’t had a physical running back since Playoff Lenny was around. (more…)

How much?

Before people stroke out, please keep in mind a franchise tag is nothing more than a tool to buy a team time to get a guy signed. (more…)

How did the Bucs’ late-season collapse affect Todd Bowles? Did it affect Bowles’ confidence?

The head coach was hit with that question during his visit to the Ira Kaufman Podcast this week. (more…)

It’s that time of year again, when Tampa Bay’s big PGA Tour event returns. And there’s no better way to watch it than in the Hooters Owl’s Nest.

Older Bucs fans remember that Rondé Barber played outside cornerback and shifted to inside nickel cornerback often. Simply put, Barber didn’t come off the field. (more…)

Fifth-year option thoughts.

While fans are buried in draft chatter and free agency rumors, there is another important decision by the Bucs looming that could directly impact the salary cap and draft strategy in the near future. (more…)

Bucs open to a return.

Joe thought surely running back Rachaad White had played his last snap for the Bucs. The guy who runs the football operations at One Buc Palace didn’t agree. (more…)

Please fall to the Bucs.

Joe has not changed his mind. (more…)

Season win-total for Bucs.

Wanna bet on the Bucs winning it all next year? You can get decent odds. (more…)

Explains o-line comments.

At least in Joe’s mind, Bucs AC/DC-loving general manager Jason Licht made a bolder than bold statement about his team this week. (more…)

Draft chatter.

Joe has typed a few times since Rachaad White kicked over the kitty litter box walking out the door of One Buc Palace, Sean Tucker is a free agent and is Bucky Irving coming off shoulder surgery, the Bucs’ running back room very likely needs to add bodies. (more…)
