Could Edgerrin James Be Headed To Tampa Bay?

Jeremy Green of BSPN predicts the Cardinals will cut Edgerrin James and the Bucs will sign him.

Saturday night Joe was almost on his breaking point (again). Sports radio was largely all A-Roid, all night (and Joe fully expects the same this morning, so between that and the constant regurgitation of “ko-BEE” and “LUH-bron” Joe isn’t even going to touch a nationally broadcast sports radio show today for fear he will throw a radio through his window).

Joe years ago grew tired of Yankees talk on radio, no matter how credible it may be. Joe was bored by A-Roid talk once the news broke (somewhere, Albert Pujols is laughing). Thankfully Joe was behind the wheel and turned to a safe haven: NFL Radio on Sirius. However, during a commercial break, Joe took a chance and found there to be football talk on BSPN. Imagine!

There, he heard BSPN football analyst Jeremy Green tell John Clayton that he expected the Bucs to get a new running back. It will be Edgerrin James, Green said.

Green explained that he fully expects James to be cut by the Cardinals. James has made no secret, so Green said, that he wants to play in his home state of Florida. Green suggested that the Bucs are the perfect fit.

Joe can also understand James coming to the Bucs. Warrick Dunn, though Joe loves him to death, is getting up there in years and is best used in spot duty. Earnest Graham is coming back from an injury and there’s no sane person on earth expecting Cadillac Williams to play next year.

So long as James isn’t asking for the sky and the moon, Joe would consider James to be a solid pick up. Joe hopes Green’s prediction comes true.
