Even though the Bucs are flying high off the victory they are not done competing for championships.

According to ESPN, there is now a strong rumor of a Odell Beckham to Tampa Bay trade. Tampa will likely lose Chris Godwin in free agency, so it does make sense. But will it actually happen? We’ll have to wait and see.

Here is the full report from Get Up ESPN:

]]> Here’s How The Buccaneers Won The Super Bowl With Free Agents http://www.mockdrafthq.com/2021/02/heres-how-the-buccaneers-won-the-super-bowl-with-free-agents.html Mon, 08 Feb 2021 05:57:38 +0000 http://www.mockdrafthq.com/?p=11589 Tom Brady and the Bucs just won Super Bowl 55. It was a decent game, but we all knew that Tampa was going to dominate the makeshift offensive line Kansas City trotted out there.

Patrick Mahomes was pressured on over 50% of his pass attempts. You just can’t win when your QB is throwing the ball from 20 yards behind the scrimmage.

But what is more interesting is the fact that the Bucs “won the Super Bowl in free agency” and then went onto win the actual Super Bowl. That’s right. The Bucs won Super Bowl 55 through scoring points with players who all were acquired no more than 11 months ago. Crazy.

]]> Here’s Why The Buccaneers Are Signing Antonio Brown http://www.mockdrafthq.com/2020/10/heres-why-the-buccaneers-are-signing-antonio-brown.html Fri, 23 Oct 2020 22:52:32 +0000 http://www.mockdrafthq.com/?p=11493 The Tampa Bay Football team has announced they are meeting with free agent WR Antonio Brown AKA AB.

Antonio Brown always wanted to play with Tom Brady and they looked unstoppable in the one game they played together in New England. I’m not sure the Bucs have enough snaps to go around to keep AB happy but if he will fall in line and be a role player for any QB it is his boy Tom Brady.

Here is what we know about the Buccaneers signing Antonio Brown:

]]> Bucs Kicker Roberto Aguayo Seeks Mental Coach http://www.mockdrafthq.com/2016/08/bucs-kicker-roberto-aguayo-seeks-mental-coach.html Thu, 25 Aug 2016 04:35:33 +0000 http://www.mockdrafthq.com/?p=9532 The Bucs put a lot of pressure on kicker Roberto Aguayo after using a second round pick on him in the 2016 NFL Draft. Aguayo was a great college kicker and was also on the same 2013 championship winning team that now Bucs QB Jameis Winston started on.

Aguayo has been shanking a lot of kicks lately and has apparently been just as bad at practice over the last few weeks so instead of just “going through the motions” he’s seeking outside help:

Via JoeBucsFan.com, Roy Cummings told 620 WDAE that Aguayo has contacted former NFL kicker Ryan Longwell, former Buccaneers special-teams coordinator Bill Miller, and a “mental coach.” Aguayo admitted that his confidence has been shaken “a little bit.”

-PFT

Props to him for being mature enough to seek help to get through this. At age 22 he could have 18 NFL seasons in front of him so there is no need for the Bucs to panic yet. Let the man work himself out and re-access the situation at week 6 if you absolutely have to cut bait with him.

]]> Buccaneers Trade DT Brian Price http://www.mockdrafthq.com/2012/07/buccaneers-trade-dt-brian-price.html Thu, 26 Jul 2012 21:34:54 +0000 http://www.mockdrafthq.com/?p=3706 Brian Price was just drafted in the second round in 2010, and he is now on his second team. The Bucs have announced they have sent the defensive tackle to Chicago.

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers have announced that they traded Price, a defensive tackle who started 14 games in Tampa Bay last season, to the Bears for an undisclosed 2013 draft pick.

Brian Price and Gerald McCoy were supposed to be the anchors of the new improved Tampa defense that never materialized. Hopefully in Chicago Brian picks it up, and the Buccaneers can find a defensive tackle that fits with their team more.

]]> Kellen Winslow Done in Tampa Bay, Dallas Clark on the Way http://www.mockdrafthq.com/2012/05/kellen-winslow-done-in-tampa-bay-dallas-clark-on-the-way.html Mon, 21 May 2012 21:00:01 +0000 http://www.mockdrafthq.com/?p=3477 Bucs exciting tight end Kellen Winslow has apparently been granted his walking papers from the team today.

Via Ross Tucker:

TE Kellen Winslow told Sirius the Buccaneers are trying to trade him. Which helps explain the Dallas Clark workout.

It looks like Tampa is in a “quick rebuild” mode and possibly Kellen isn’t in their plans. Dallas Clark apparenlty is. I thought Dallas Clark was a lock to join Peyton Manning in Denver, but the Broncos opted to sign Jacob Tamme instead.

]]> Buccaneers Waive QB Jordan Jefferson 4 Days After Career Begins http://www.mockdrafthq.com/2012/05/buccaneers-waive-qb-jordan-jefferson-4-days-after-career-begins.html Thu, 10 May 2012 21:50:50 +0000 http://www.mockdrafthq.com/?p=3430 It is hard out here for an undrafted QB.

Jordan Jefferson, who you last saw in the National Championship game at LSU, has been cut by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers just four days after his pro career started. The Bucs announced their waiving of Jefferson today.

I don’t think that anyone believed that Jefferson would be an NFL QB. But a four day career is pretty surprising. Maybe he will resurface in the UFL (are they still having seasons?), Arena League, or the CFL.

All young QBs need only to remember the name Kurt Warner to know that it is never over until they give up. If Jordan finds somewhere to play and works on his passing, who knows maybe he springs up in the NFL later in his career.

]]> Da’Quan Bowers Suffers Knee Injury http://www.mockdrafthq.com/2012/05/daquan-bowers-suffers-knee-injury.html Thu, 10 May 2012 20:59:47 +0000 http://www.mockdrafthq.com/?p=3427 Da’Quan Bowers suffered a knee injury today, via the Bucs official twitter account:

DE Da’Quan Bowers has suffered a torn Achilles tendon while participating in the Bucs’ offseason program.

Just sucks for him. There was a lot of questions about his knee coming out of school and going into the draft. Hopefully he can rehab and get back out there pretty soon.

]]> Tampa Bay Bucs Sign Paralyzed DT Eric LeGrand http://www.mockdrafthq.com/2012/05/tampa-bay-bucs-sign-paralyzed-dt-eric-legand.html Wed, 02 May 2012 16:10:47 +0000 http://www.mockdrafthq.com/site/?p=3382 The Tampa Bay Buccaneers have signed paralyzed defensive tackle, former Rutgers defensive tackle Eric LeGrand to a contract.  LeGrand has been signed to serve as a motivator to the other players.

I don’t know how this is going to work out with his schedule and all, but I expect Eric to be doing some press and motivational speaking on behalf of the Bucs and the league.  It will be interesting to see how they decide to use him in their PR.

Eric’s statement on twitter:

This is honestly a blessing from above. I love you all keep following people believe we will make this happen

He also retweeted Lil Wayne who wrote,

Today Eric LeGrand was drafted into the NFL. Mark this down as a beautiful day in sports.

]]> Vince Gone: Vincent Jackson Signs With the Bucs http://www.mockdrafthq.com/2012/03/vince-gone-vincent-jackson-signs-with-the-bucs.html Wed, 14 Mar 2012 00:53:41 +0000 http://www.mockdrafthq.com/site/?p=3134 The Bucs were a team that many rumored to be in the market for a #1 WR. And with good reason why. Josh Freeman was absolutely terrible last year and much of that could be attributed to a lack of talent at the receiver spot. The Bucs have some young talent in Arrelious Benn and Mike Williams, but they were out played by the undrafted Dezmon Briscoe.

You know that Josh Freeman has to be excited right now, he finally has a legit #1 WR to add to those young up and coming receivers. Vincent Jackson is on the way, but he wasn’t cheap:

Vincent Jackson agreed to five-year deal in Tampa with Bucs.

Vincent Jackson deal in Tampa: 5 yrs, $55.55 million, including $26 million guaranteed, $36 million in 1st 3 yrs, $26 million in 1st 2 yrs.
