LG Ben Bredeson talks Bucs culture.

You know we are in the middle of training camp when dudes like Joe are typing about culture. (more…)

Another strong draft class?

The word is starting to creep out. (more…)

Todd Bowles

The Bucs may have dodged a major bullet yesterday when it was learned the ankle injury suffered by outside linebacker YaYa Diaby is just a high-ankle sprain. (more…)

Veteran cornerback Tavierre Thomas.

The Bucs knew they had a lousy pass defense last year. Boy, did they attack repairing it this offseason. (more…)

Joe had additional comments about plays witnessed from Bucs training yesterday. Since some really like these offerings, Joe thought he’d serve sort of like a late-night snack of Bucs football nuggets. (more…)

Sort of a unique pairing earlier today when classy Chris Godwin sat down with prickly Pete Prisco, the noted CBS Sports NFL insider. (more…)

Reason to smile.

It looked so much worse. (more…)

The cynical side of Joe might be quick to say, ‘Of course Baker Mayfield is happier than ever. He signed a $100 milllion contract.’ (more…)

So Tristan Wirfs became the NFL’s highest paid offensive lineman today and held a news conference with Buccaneers Ring of Honor general manager Jason Licht after practice to talk about it.

Some highlights: (more…)

Bad moment.

[UPDATE: 12:23 p.m.] Per Ian Rapoport of NFL Network, X-rays on YaYa Diaby’s injured ankle are negative. That’s the good news. The bad news? The MRI results may not be known until late tonight or early tomorrow.

YaYa Diaby, the Bucs’ 2023 sacks leader, went down for about three minutes and was carted off the field with an ankle injury very late in practice this morning. The injury occurred during a full-contact play.

Diaby did get into the cart without assistance. Joe will update as more information becomes available.

So mad he’s smiling?

This nugget is extra interesting to Joe because it comes from a national media guy actually at Bucs practice today. (more…)

Next man up?

Let’s face it: Joe is absolutely obsessed with an edge rush. If a team doesn’t have one, it’s like running a race and giving a guy a 20-yard head start. (more…)

Big man made a difference.

Yes, Joe is deeply troubled from seeing YaYa Diaby on the ground and Tristan Wirfs kneeling beside him. (more…)

Offensive coordiantor Liam Coen.

So the Bucs lost their free agent guard signing from the Eagles for the season last night. Sua Opeta is done with a knee injury.

Joe talked to playcaller Liam Coen about what’s next for the left guard position today. (more…)

Injuries are piling up at One Buc Palace.

No practice today for starting safety Jordan Whitehead. He sat out with a sore quad, per head coach Todd Bowles.

Yesterday, the Buccaneers lost guard Sua Opeta, who was competing for a starting gig with Ben Bredeson. (Joe will have more on that today.) Running back Chase Edmonds hasn’t practiced this summer with an undisclosed injury.

And the kick-in-the-gut news of YaYa Diaby going down with what looked liked a significant ankle injury came late this morning.
