@IGL&RDP:
How does it feel to be the village idiot again?
You post: “trust me”. You gotta be out of your mind, kid. Your adolescent, mean-spirited posts are part of what’s worst about this site. Even the blind homerism of some people around here is easier to take than your ignorant, angry drivel. It would be easier to trust a bum.
Maybe you’re NOT a kid, but you sure act like one.

Draft info:

Forget about taking a corner at #13. Millner will be gone and Banks might be too.

I say that Bennett will get signed away and we will draft another DE to replace him.

The bottom line is…we need to draft the BEST PLAYER AVAILABLE.

We have so many issues, especially depth.

DE/DT/LB/OT/CB/FS

We just need to find a way to get the RIGHT guy.

Maybe we’ll trade back into the first and take Xavier Rhodes, IF hes worth.

We’ll see! I really have NO IDEA what we will do!!

@Big Marlon @Joe

I also noticed immediately that was Chief Mason in that foto! He is wearing his West Coast Washington War paint and his skin tone is lighter than Quincy’s. Plus the tattoos. Though his number #59 is very blockish and sometimes looks like an 8. I can see how Joe might miss that detail.

@Ian

Just admit that your comment was cold. Apologize. Admit. Grow. Evolve.

@Everybody

I am very HAPPY to see so many attacks on @Ian!!!

Much respect!!! Now thats what TEACHERMAN is talking about!!!

LOVE for our BROTHER BUCS!!!

FAMILY!!! Feel dat!

With an upgrade at Quincy’s position we could have one of the best LB corps in the league.

@Andrew2 No, actually our 3rd LB doesn’t play more than half the snaps. The numbers should that our SECOND LB plays roughly 2/3 of the snaps. Our third LB plays around 1/3 of the snaps.

In other words, on average, we have 2 LBs on the field, with 3 corners.

And we have 2 starting caliber LBs and, at best, 1 starting caliber corner.

@Ian,

You still have no idea what you are talking about. It’s called injury settlement. When a player gets hurt and can no longer perform their duties and player and the team work out a settlement. Suing will not and have not happen unless the player feels he was cast aside unjustly. That is when the NFLPA steps in on the players behalf.

Since Eric Lagrend Greg takes those injuries seriously and will do everything they can to make sure he is taken care of.

IAN you speak as if you actually know what you are talking about. If you actually did maybe you would have a job determining who is faking and who is not. Black was having his bed year by far, so to assume otherwise is just a dumb uneducated opinion.

Ian,

A modest attempt to help you understand what may happen to an injured player if he is cut or released from a NFL team. This was mandated by the new CBA to protect both player and the team from financial exposure.

If the Bucs choose to release Quincy Black, the Bucs may have to pay an injury settlement which the new CBA limits to 50% of the players salary or 1mil whichever is less in the 1st year and 30% or 500k in the 2nd year. Quincy has 3 years left on his contract and should that route be taken, his own LTD insurances would take over after year 2. The player is protected from a catastrophic loss of income and the team is protected by limiting its liability, ie, no lawsuit.

Please review the link below and if you need further info, I can direct you the specific chapter and article in the CBA.

Joe:

I know Quincy wears #58. That doesn’t change the fact that the player in the picture ISN’T wearing #58, it’s #59 aka Mason Foster. Look at the face too, you can tell the difference. Also, Black doesn’t even have tattoos on his right arm, Foster is covered.

You can’t always trust Google image search. For example, I could type “handsome sports columnist” and end up getting a picture of Joe instead
The person who uploaded that picture to their page simply made a mistake.

Btw, I’m not trying to be a pest, just trying to help
