Or maybe, just maybe, Schiano wants to run the ball with his 250 pound running back that has ridiculous yards after first contact and actually hurdles would be tacklers. I don’t know, makes some sense to me, how about we give the ball to that guy?

Good. I say that a lot when I watch Bucs games lately, except the phrase is peppered liberally with obscenities.

I can see either scenario play out…Minnesotta is shopping their pick, and who knows what Cleveland will do…so either Morris Claiborne or Trent Richardson works for me.

We need at least one more RB if not two (depending on if Madu can do the trick or not). F****g hated seeing Tolbert go to the Panthers! Another San Diego running back to trample on our defense!!!!!

I don’t think TRich is a good move at #5… Too little self life for a RB in he NFL, this not a good value. Claiborne is the clear pick at #5, if hes gone the Bucs need to look at trading down if possible an picking up more defensive depth.

There are serviceable RBs to be had in free agency still, and in the later rounds of the draft…

Defense is the key need for this team if we want to build a long-term winning franchise…

Is “Run the Football” anything like “Pound the Rock”?

Love the attention to the running game and supporting it by picking up a road grader at Guard…and I’m very excited by the methodical coaching hire, the strategic way the ownership/rockstar have played the FA game…and if Cleveland doesn’t snatch him ahead my beloved Bucs, I can even see us drafting Trent Richardson.

But pardon me if I tell you that…Ive HEARD a lot, but I’ll believe it when I SEE it…

and I don’t care what the national media says about the Bucs…they suck-up, donkeys, you start winning and they’ll start braying.

I don’t think Richardson will be there. The Browns are gonna want to replace Hillis

Best Player Available at the # 5 pick, no BS. Bring in Trent Richardson and the offense is set.

That gives me some confidence of a better season coming up….. I hope they get Trent Richardson or at least someone close to his caliber. Put together a strong running threat and cut down on Freeman’s over thrown and dirt diving throws.
The only way Vincent Jackson will be an asset is IF Freeman can ever get the ball to him accurately and on time!

As much as getting Trent Richardson would boost our running game I think Cleveland might take him at #4 and if we do trade down he deffinatly wont be available. I do like the thought of trading down though and maybe getting Luke Kuechly so we can get some LB help which we so desperatly need. And the Panthers just signed Mike Tolbert so they now have 3 quality Rbs im thinking theyll have to release one that’s too much cap space on RBs. I think we should snatch up the one they cut which in my opinion would be Johnathon Stewart who always kills Tampa when we play. Then we can go very hard in the draft on defense which is clearly our biggest need after FA

I believe the Bucs will take Claiborne if he is available at number 5. If he is gone already, Richardson would be fine with me. Perfect scenario would be to flip flop number ones with a willing trade partner, gain no less than an additional second rounder, and use the first and two second rounders on best linebackers or cornerbacks available. I also think Winslow may have played his last game as a Buc and we could get a second or third rounder for him. Make the trade Dominick, you are on a roll. Go Bucs!
