I love DaQuan. I think he will be our FIRST 10 sack guy in years!

He is a sick athlete. Splitting time with Bennet was hurting his potential.

He needs a full season to get better.

He was our second round choice. This year will be his 3rd on a 4 year contract. Our patience with his knee could really pan out this year.

I am a believer in Bowers.

Prediction: 13 sack season!

And about the gun?

He was on a surprise trip with his girlfriend. He wasnt aware of the law. He messed up. Get over it!

I guarantee his charges will be dropped. Just watch.

Also, about the rumor about Bennet’s injuries! Pff. Wtv. He played all year. That doesnt earn a man some respect?

I would feel bad for him, but his 5 million contract, even after taxes, is more money than I ever make as a teacher.

I just hope he knows how to be smart with his cash.

Brian Price? I hope he makes the Cowboys roster!

the record money for free agents is for elite talent…wright didn’t get record money and we had an “out” clause.

Joe I’m sorry but I am losing absolutely all faith in the direction this team is being taken. I know u have to save face and keep an even opinion with all of it, but what are your true thoughts. I have no idea why we let Bennett and miller go, I have no clue why we let biggers go and are sitting here solely looking at Revis (giving up all leverage and on other free agent corners), I have no clue why were not considering another DE with all of the talent available, especially with us dangling our first round pick for Revis….. And not to mention we’re down a RT and a strong side LB (the guy from the saints sounds like a special teams slappy). Honesly Joe, what the hell is going on, what is the game plan. Is it just me or does it seem like our GM is just not good.. I mean why are we always having to pay record money for free agents?!… And now this jets deal is going fubar… Again, your thoughts..

It was just his one knee. From what I have read it hasn’t bothered him since. The issue really is how long can it hold up.

Bowers is a beast… he has 1st round potential.

But what about those knees?

HAS NOT PROVEN HIMSELF

ENOUGH SAID. They’re playing with fire, as usual. Always “what if” “I think” “potential” “this will be a players year” with this GM.

I think it’s funny that Bowers can be the absolute steal of the draft or the biggest “what-the” moment in Bucs a drafting history (as in “everyone else saw the problem…the Bucs didn’t.”)

Then again, he’s a Bucs 2nd round pick by Mark Dominik. That makes Him about as reliable as Lindsay Lohan following her 12 step program.

What Bowers did was no different than what happens ALOT in NY airports. Their enforcement at the airports is vastly different than MOST states and MANY people have run into the same scenarios and had to put up with the NY liberal controlling nanny state BS.

MOST get off with just handing over some cash (liberal states love that).

Bowers was not smart in this case but I would not trash him because NONE of you know the complete facts. From what we do know, however, he is more than likely going to get off completely.

As for them letting Bennett and Miller go… surprising.
I think they believe Teo can replace Bennett for cheaper and Miller is pretty interchangeable with MANY DTs to be had cheap.
Just a guess, and I do not want to see depth leave…. BUT………….

they do need a pass rush and DBs and keeping the entire defense together is not the way to go. they need to shake some things up

Bowers is certainly capable of becoming a good pass rusher. I think he has the talent. I wouldn’t be surprised to see Dominik take a DE early in the draft to bolster the depth though. I’m looking forward to seeing what Bowers can do and hopefully Clayborn comes back healthy.

@Sneedy, Right. But I did speculate before it was announced that maybe a girlfriend was involved….(a surprise trip) grabbing bags to pack…not checking them…and completely oblivious to the fact it was there….and maybe it got by TSA. They were too busy hassling little kids and senior citizens in wheel chairs. Further proving how imperfect they are.

I am starting to think that Schiano doesn’t have a sense of urgency here.

He must still think that he is in college and has all the time in the world to groom these guys.
