Great move. After we didnt draft anyone, I was worried.

This move gives us a solid player who will never loaf.

I was screaming for months that DT was our biggest need. And wisely, we signed 2 solid players.

Can anyone see a glaring need on our roster? Except FS, I think we look like a real team this year!!

WR is now deep.
RB looks good, although I think we whiffed on Chris Polk in favor of M. Smith
DT is now solidified (our season is depending on Price and McCoy, but at least we npw have 2! Replacements)
LB- Goode is gonna surprise people. He will produce. Just watch.

CB- were cool. Relax. Wright, Talib, Barber, Biggers….not a bad top 4..we just need Gaitor and Lewis to step up and one of the new draftees to earn a roster spot. Adios Myron Lewis (he is just a pretty boy)

I doubt whether he’ll be good enough to rotate in on McCoy’s side. That will be Okoye but he will give Price a rest occasionally.

With GMac and Price’s injuries, you had to sign Okoye and Gibson.

Look for another free agent DT to be added soon. Coach Schiano has to be prepared for injuries up front.

If the D-Line can stay healthy this season, this could be a pretty good season!!

Rumor has it:

He can complete a season without fish oil! Amazing.

We finally have a coach (again) that understands that it all starts up front. Good Defensive lines can completely take over games! You can’t say that about many other positions on the team.

This will help once Fish Oil McCoy goes down in October with a torn ______________ .

Schiano just doesn’t want to get caught short like last season when the entire D-line was decimated. If someone gets injured you have to have backup that knows the system and the playbook. Building depth at DT is a wise move. I haven’t heard anything about Price but I hope he’s healthy and 100% for day 1.

Where there is motive there is usually intent. I don’t profess to know what the Bucs think about our D-Line, but something has them looking for alternatives for a reason.

During the pre-draft visits, some of the people that visited first were D-Linemen. Now what was that all about (motive)? They brought in Quenton Coples, Michael Brockers, and Chandler Jones, but didn’t draft any. These players were all high draft picks and not exactly what one would call depth.

I think under some draft scenario, which did not occur, one of these men would have been an alternative pick – which brings me back to my opening sentence.

They are not satisfied with or are unsure of something or someone on the D-Line. Look for further changes to be made (intent).
