Keenan Lewis is a guy I can't see Pittsburgh letting go but they're cap strapped. They have a lot of decisions to make regarding vets and their young guys. They may sign Wallace who knows. I don't think they can afford him
Keenan Lewis would be an excellent addition at a good price. |

Oh NOW people want bush? ... That would require a 2-back system which isn't what we need to do now that we have doug martin.. think about how martin would feel about that also... would be a horrible signing not to mention a lot of money...
I would like a couple 2nd tier free agents like a Sedrick Ellis or Glen Dorsey, maybe a fullback if a good one is available...
Not a great CB free agent group this year, while the draft is deep at CB so I think we address that in the draft... Same thing with TE and safety
Are there any receivers out there that could make a decent slot guy? _________________

Too bad for us, Keenan Lewis is really good. Solid corner. _________________

It's going to be interesting to see how Pittsburgh does that. 12 million over the cap with mike Wallace a free agent as well. |

Weird, I thought he did pretty well this year. Nothing spectacular, but a good depth guy to have. _________________

#Bills release of George Wilson likely indicates 0 percent chance Jairus Byrd gets away. Either long-term deal or franchise tag. _________________

That's probably the issue. Maybe miller and his agent think he can get better money on the market while we see him more of a rotational run stopper. |

Roy Miller is a good rotational player to have on the roster at the right price. I think the Bucs are playing it right by letting him get into the market and figure out his worth. He is a good run stopper at NT in a 4-3, don't think he is big enough to be NT on a 3-4. In addition, his 1.5 career sacks shows he offers nothing in the pass rush dept.
I think they eventually resign him after free agency begins. |

| Quote: | Bucs GM Mark Dominik indicated that he plans to be active in free agency again this offseason.
The Bucs signed Vincent Jackson, Eric Wright, and Carl Nicks last March, and still have $30.1 million to work with this spring. "We've got a chance to be (heavily) involved in free agency again," said Dominik, adding that some of the money will be used to retain in-house players. If the Bucs intend to upgrade at running back behind Doug Martin, free agent Ahmad Bradshaw would be a nice fit. He also knows Bucs OC Mike Sullivan from their Giants days. |
Bradshaw?? |

I wouldn't mind Bradshaw. Not as explosive as he once was, but hey he's better than Blount. _________________

Wouldn't mind Bradshaw either but Doug Martin is a rising top rb. Will he accept the #2 role and spell Martin? I think we need to draft Martins bac up who can spell him. Bradshaw will want more carries than what he'd get in Tampa. |
