Bucs co-chairman Joel Glazer.
Here’s a rare look inside the mind of Team Glazer.
Much love to the Bucs for allowing audio nuggets from last week’s JoeBucsFan.com/Joel Glazer chat session in Orlando to be shared here. [read more]

PRESENTED BY
Football life was ugly between America’s Quarterback, Jameis Winston, and DeSean Jackson last year.
And now the fancy official NFL Next Gen Stats data is out on deep passes of 20 yards or more. Things are worse than they appeared. [read more]
Coming to One Buc Palace.
Joe isn’t sure if this is just a cruel troll job to thinking, alert Bucs fans or an elaborate way to boost the egos of a troika of defensive coaches who have done a poor job with rookie corners. [read more]
The charitable foundation of America’s Quarterback, Jameis Winston, has been busy making things better for Tampa Bay area kids.
Enjoy this video that includes Jameis and plenty on the Dream Room he opened in a Tampa elementary school.
Salesman.
During the offseason when the Bucs decided to have a total makeover of their defensive line, with the exception of Gerald McCoy, the powers that be at One Buc Palace had their eyes on Beau Allen as a target. [read more]

BY IRA KAUFMAN
Hold off on your seven-round mock drafts for a moment and get real, Stick Carriers.
The Bucs aren’t in bad shape sitting at No. 7 — and the word of the day is value. Things would get easy if Bradley Chubb, Saquon Barkley or Quenton Nelson are still on the board, or things can get messy if the big three are all gone.
I’m hearing a lot of chatter about Jason Licht selecting Minkah Fitzpatrick or Derwin James in that scenario, but I’m not buying it. [read more]
Can do it all.
Joe is of the belief that if this guard Quenton Nelson is on the board when the Bucs select at No. 7 in the draft later this month, Bucs AC/DC-loving general manager Jason Licht will pull the lever on the Notre Dame product.
Joe, however, would not. [read more]
Looking forward.
So we know who the Bucs will play this season. We just don’t know when.
That should come in a couple of weeks. [read more]
At One Buc Palace today.
Busy, busy day for the football operations staff with the Bucs.
First, Joe brought word Florida State safety Derwin James was one of the team’s allotted 30-man visits to One Buc Palace. Now from the keyboard of Ian Rapoport of NFL Network, University of Washington manbeast Vita Vea is also at Bucs headquarters today.
Joe understands Vea is popular among many Bucs fans. If the Bucs were to draft him, my goodness, the defensive line may have the most depth Joe has seen since the glory years of Warren Sapp and Simeon Rice.
Key position to deal.
Joe has maintained two things: the Bucs are sitting pretty at No. 7 and should trade down if the opportunity arises. [read more]
Work. Work. Work.
It’s the way of America’s Quarterback, Jameis Winston. It’s awesome and admirable, but it also dredges up negativity. [read more]
Mingling with Bucs.
For the two or so folks that for some reason are irked with fan favorite Chris Conte, this will make their day. [read more]
Miko adds clarity
After a hiatus for about six weeks, mercurial NFL super wife Miko Grimes, spouse of Bucs cornerback Brent Grimes, was back delivering her candid, entertaining IHeartMiko Podcast on Sunday.
And she made a firm point to issue a public service announcement for NFL players.
(content may not be suitable for children)
Ronald Darby is a name that makes a lot of Buccaneers fans cringe, but so are Vernon Hargreaves and Ryan Smith.
So fresh chatter out of Philadelphia is a worth a couple of minutes of attention. [read more]
UCF CB on Bucs’ radar.
An interesting if not a depressing potential future Bucs player will be visiting One Buc Palace as part of Tampa Bay’s 30 official invites this month. [read more]
“Don’t worry, Jason, I’ll pick up the tab for the steaks and onion rings. But you need to get rid of that tailor.”
It seems Jason Licht really, really wanted center Ryan Jensen. [read more]
Bucs OC Puts ACC RB Through Drills.
Quite honestly Joe doesn’t know much about this Nyheim Hines, a running back for North Carolina State. But it seems like Joe better start brushing up on him. [read more]

Last offseason the Bucs weren’t talking publicly about toughness and the internal drive of players very much.
It was more about getting more explosive.
Things have changed. [read more]
UPDATE: The initial hotel room block at the rate below sold out, but 10 more were just added. You’ll need to truly hurry if you want in on that. They’ll surely be gone this week.
The Draft Party is for EVERYONE. It’s more of a block party this year and you will be blown away. … If you attended last year, just think double the size and energy. And if you didn’t attend last year, well, don’t deny yourself the pleasure. “Lit” is the only appropriate description.
Be there for Thursday’s Round 1, April 26. Arrive early. Return for Rounds 2 and 3 the following day.
