Ohio State receiver Emeka Egbuka.

Look, while Joe could see the Bucs adding a defensive player at any position, the Bucs have been not so secretive in suggesting if a playmaker receiver is there at No. 19, the Bucs won’t hesitate to pull the trigger. (more…)

One X-factor in this week’s Bucs draft is how highly the team evaluates the play of defensive end/defensive tackle Logan Hall.

Hall plays half the defensive snaps and starts most games, including against Washington in the playoffs three months ago. (more…)

Analyst believes Bucs’ pick is in!

There are two big reasons Joe puts a lot of stock into what Peter Schrager has to say about the Bucs. (more…)

A man with a key card to One Buc Palace, a man who has said publicly that he’s seen the Bucs’ draft big board (he didn’t specify 2025), a man who has the trust and friendship of Buccaneers Ring of Honor general manager Jason Licht, has weighed in on Tampa Bay’s draft. (more…)

Quicker get-off = sacks.

The best thing to happen to Bucs edge rusher YaYa Diaby is the signing of fellow edge rusher Haason Reddick. Less pressure on YaYa to produce. (more…)

Brendan Donahue has been on a helluva run the past five years. (more…)

Michigan CB Will Johnson.

This will make Michigan Men, Jamel Dean haters and weirdos who like ugly blue football pants rejoice. It leaves Joe scratching his head. (more…)

So a young head coach on a Hall of Fame track, Sean McVay, and one of the game’s great general managers, Les Snead, were openly pining today for cornerback Jalen Ramsey to return to their 10-7 Rams football team. (more…)

Firepower!

The Bucs rolled up 29.5 points per game last season and scared the pants off defensive coordinators. (more…)

So Buccaneers Ring of Honor general manager Jason Licht took a break today from ordering junk food to speak to fans via the WFLA-TV studios. (more…)

“You’re reading that correctly, Mr. Glazer.”

Now this got Joe to put down the imported pomegranate juice. (more…)

Who will play with Antoine Winfield, Jr.?

So for about 30 minutes at the NFL Scouting Combine, Joe hung out with former Tampa Bay quarterback Chris Simms and talked all things Bucs and NFL Draft. (more…)

Boston College DE Donovan Ezeiruaku.

Let’s be real: Joe Tryon-Shoyinka is a bust. (more…)

Chance to play with Haason Reddick has YaYa Diaby smiling.

YaYa Diaby wants opponents to first think of how they are going to stop Calijah Kancey and himself, the way opponents once feared facing the Bucs defense with Simeon Rice and Warren Sapp. (more…)

Likes “Freaks List” defenders.

So Joe is looking for tells in Jason Licht’s drafts. Here’s one a lot of folks overlook. (more…)

Tight end Devin Culp.

Last year as a rookie, Bucs seventh-round pick tight end Devin Culp was mostly a healthy scratch on game days. Not a surprise.

How often do rookie seventh-round picks who are fourth on the depth chart get to active status, barring a bunch of injuries? (more…)

Bucs OLB YaYa Diaby.

Bucs outside linebacker YaYa Diaby almost sounded like he reads Joe’s emotional diatribes about the need for sacks over pressures. (more…)

Says NextGen Stats is wrong.

A couple of months ago, Joe ran across a stat that just seemed too difficult to believe. (more…)

Calijah Kancey has a legendary 2025 season on his mind. (more…)
