Draft strategy.

Was this a suit version of “real recognizes real?” Joe isn’t sure but a current NFL general manager with a ring on his finger seemed to impress a two-time NFL general manager who is still searching for that same ring. (more…)

Projections.

These are some weird stats. But hey, if Joe was a math major, Joe would be doing your taxes and not covering the Bucs. (more…)

Stay healthy please.

With the third worthless preseason game tomorrow night, Bucs stud defensive tackle Calijah Kancey may see his first game-type action. (more…)

Not happy with o-line.
