Mark Carrier Gives Bucs Offseason Thumbs-Up

May 2nd, 2013

Former Bucs Pro Bowl wide receiver Mark Carrier still keeps up with the Bucs from afar, specifically in North Carolina as he works for the Stinking Panthers.

Carrier appeared with Tom Krasniqi on WDAE-AM 620 earlier this week and talked Bucs, specifically the Bucs draft. He likes the Bucs’ offseason moves.

“Actually I think they did a really good job starting off with [Darrelle] Revis. That’s the best pick in the draft. And then you get a corner who can learn under Revis and make sure Revis is totally healed up,” Carrier said.

“A lot of people thought highly of the quarterback [Mike Glennon] from North Carolina State, so hopefully he gives Josh that competition that gets him going.

“I just thought they did a really good job of addressing needs and adding stability. They covered the safety positions quite a bit in free agency and now they have guys on the [defensive] line they can add to the rotation. The NFC South is a passing division and you have to bring pressure on those quarterbacks to do anything that can disrupt the timing.”

    Mark Carrier is one of the few good players we had on those late 80’s teams.

    238-
    WTF are you talking about? When did the subject of race enter the discussion? I mean, until you mentioned it… What kind of point are you trying to make? I’m looking forward to this one.

    teacherman777 made this comment just yesterday:

    ” For all the racist, toxic, negative haters on here.
    I hope this video can open your heart a little bit.”

    And why would he call people racist, toxic and haters? Because he thinks fans who agree with Buc management and Mark Carrier that the Buccaneers QB position needs competition are just that.

    Our draft was alright.. I was wondering if any1 knows how that Eric Page is doing with his rehab.. He could be our PR KR. player under the radar…
